Digital BW, The Print

Water, water everywhere..... maybe that should read INK..

Twenty years behind the camera and a shameless inkjet novice, I want to do  
it the way you lot do it butI need a little help... if anyone can please  
spare a few moments?  I can't work out how to search the (whole) archive  
(it will only search a page at a time for me) so..........

QTR/GUI - is there a "How To" guide for rank amateurs?

Epson - do I have to ditch my R200 (I only do A4 max)?

Ink - Is there a UK source for the wondrous concoctions I see on the list?

Please backchannel me if this is clogging up the list needlessly.

Thanks in advance
Andy
