Digital BW, The Print

Umm, if you are coming from a quadtone and EEM it's a lot, between 
$1.50-3.00, but it is nearly fool-proof and so far it is so close to 
my screen that I have only had to print one to get the "perfect 
print."  With my MIS VM setup it seemed that I would always end up 
printing 3-5 prints before getting it right.  I'm using the HP 
Premium Plus Glossy.  Not trying to save any money here (except that 
#59 carts at Target are only $23.99).  The resuls are excellent and 
so far everyone I have shown them to has been blown away.

There is no benifit to buying the 7760 IMO except for more buttons 
and a monochrome display.  I'm never going to print straight from a 
card, and if I did, I would do it at Walgreens because it would be 
faster and cheaper.

No one has posted anything, but from my reading of the specs it 
sounds like the 7960 would actually allow for toned prints, but no 
one, including hp, will come right out and say so.  I'm happy enough 
with my 7660 so I'm done testing them, but if you take a memory card 
with a toned b&w image on it you should be able to make a print in 
the store... someone should try it out.
