Digital BW, The Print

Hello all:

I visited InkJetGoodies here in Moab just yesterday.  Greg printed 
an 8 x 10 of one of my B&W files using the R800.  Unbelievable!  The 
print at first look was better than the results I'm getting with 
Piezography and MIS Full Spectrum inks!  Couldn't believe it!  Upon 
comparing to my Piezography prints at home, the Piezo. prints appear 
slightly warm and the R800 prints were dead-on neutral.  I'm still 
psyched about my piezography workflow, but as soon as the R800 goes 
wide--I'm switching.

Anyway, sounds like a large format won't be available 'til all the 
4000's are moved/sold--that's just basic marketing sense on Epson's 
part.  I would have bought one on the spot if it was 13" or wider.  

This technology definitely seems to be the answer to:  "How do I get 
fine art color and B&W prints from the same printer."  I'm sold...
