One comment regarding E3000 performance referenced in the PiezographyBW 
information:  Check the paper feed mechanism performance: a 16x20 print 
should be 20 inches long within +- 3/16" . Beyond that the dot groups 
will be spread/compressed creating excessive banding. 

Mine is 1/8" over, has microbanding, but the performace is not 
consistent with the paper moving too far as the black ink seems to 
overlay and a mid grey tone seems slightly overspaced. If you are not 
looking too closely - a few feet away, it works fine .

( I use the E3000 for 16x20 and an E2000P for smaller print sizes )
