Robbe - While that's true, the amount of ink in negligible. I own a 13" HP, and that's not a problem. In fact, I own 3 HP's. The problem is the quality of the photographic output. I don't own a 7960, so I can't speak for that. But, there was absolutely no way to get a good b&w print from any of the HP's I have. I was also put off by their "why are you bothering me with you photographic needs" attitude. I still prefer the HP's for office applications.

Sometimes they're off a little, sometimes a lot. I would like to try a 7960 to see if the b/w is as good as some say.

I would be ok with HP's papers, and I like the idea of getting a new printhead with every new ink cartridge. That would make the higher price worthwhile for me. I have no interest in "tinkering" with the system, which many Epson ownere seem to do (no criticism intended--have fun). Lance Yahoo!
