Digital BW, The Print

Mike,

If I did both color and B&W display prints larger than 13" and could justify
the cost, the 7600 with a good RIP would be very high on the list.  But,
since I do only B&W display prints and cost is an issue, it just doesn't
make sense for me.

That is exactly what I did.  My theory was that when the 7600 came out, most
7500 color printers would dump them.  So, I grabbed one.  It's been a
terrific printer for the Ultra Tone inks.  (The large carts make a CIS
irrelevant.)
