Digital BW, The Print

The 1280 is much more widely supported than the 2000P.

I use and make my new curves and inksets on the 1280 now.

I recommend using some pre-filled carts to see if you like an inkset before
you use a CIS/CFS.  Try before you buy.

Enjoy the journey.

Subject: [Digital BW] Epson 1280 vs 2000P for B&W printing



In a message dated 10/6/03 12:10:28 AM,


  I have printing with a 2000p using Epson carts for two years now, but B&W
prints with a neutral tone is an increasingly important need. So does any
one
out there have any suggestions.

   Any recommendation about Epson 1280 vs 2000P for B&W printing.  I am
considering converting a refurbished Epson Printer to a B&W machine. The
prices for
the 2000P on E-bay are around $200 and 1280 runs about $299. Which of these
do the group think might be a long term solution?


What about whether to use cartridges or convert one or the other to a B&W
CIS?

And for the last can of worms, any recommends on B&W ink set To be able to
create tones would be nice but consistency neutral tones and ease of use
would
be more important than color tints.
