Digital BW, The Print

The 8200 and 6200 also used pigment inks. Looks like these new 
printers get better gamut (improved yellow, etc.). I wouldn't hold my 
breath waiting for them to come into the USA, I think it took 2 years 
for the 62/8200 to come here, and that was just last year. This is 
good for competition with Epson though, and can only serve to drive 
prices lower.
