RE: [Digital BW] Re: Piezo expectations - 980 carts

Steadman and all,

980 carts are VERY different from 1160 carts (I'd guess they hold about
twice the volume). It makes it, IMHO, a very attractive option for starting
with Piezo BW because you'll get more prints out of the relatively expensive
carts (which are the same price as the smaller ones if I recall). I am sure
I saw Epson US had the 980 at $99!!!!! That does not reflect UK price, but
it might be worth checking.
