Digital BW, The Print

I think that is should be conclusive that the hp is better for b&w 
work.  The hp tri-tone system is excellent.  I prefer the Epson 
dither pattern, but I have only found one photo to be a real problem 
with the hp woven pattern and that was a poorly exposed T400CN 35mm 
image scanned at a measly 2880dpi.  There have been too many posts 
noting color casts in the R800 to dismiss.

As to color, I printed one 4x6" on my 7660 and it looked good, but 
personally I find the 20 cent prints from the fuji system at 
Walgreens to be cheaper and easier so I don't think I'll be printing 
much color at home.
