Digital BW, The Print

I don't think Epson is misleading at all.  They use dye and pigment in their
purest sense.  The fact that the terms overlap at some point is moot when
dealing with the general public.

All they (any printer manuf.) want is to sell the machine to the home shmo
for about $100, give him a cartridge he can't fully empty and make a high
profit on the refill.  

I am sure Epson understands two things:
  1. Professionals using the machines know the differences in the inks and
will do their own research, etc.

  2.  Groups like this will take care of what's left <BGGG>!   Ad nauseum if
necessary.
