I've had the 4000 for 6 months now. I print b/w all
the time using the ultrachrome inks on hphoto ragvia
qtr.

I use the machine about twice a week (it's a hobby not
a business). i've had no clogs or banding at all...
just the occasional paper misfeed problem that I've
learned to live with. I'm really happy with this
set-up

A am ready to purchase a stylus 4000 (you know the
price in Europe...), 
for printing mostly B&W. My idea is to use the so well
appreciated QTR 
RIP.

Since I am living in France, there is no real exchange
between 
photographers as in the US and I never had a chance to
look at a print 
printed with such configuration (I mean on a 4000 or
2200/2100 with 
QTR).

My previous configuration (what a hassle!) was an
Epson 1160 with MIS 
FSN, piezography plug in and permanent banding, cloggs
and so one... As 
a result I've stopped printing for more than one year.


Do you think I am on the good way with the combination
of a 4000 
together with QTR and that I will be able to print
A3/A2 pics with the 
same quality as the ones I've painfully obtained with
the Epson 1160 
and the MIS inks (when it worked)?

Thank you for your help in getting me convinced that I
am not again 
making a stupid decision with at the end, a big
frustration, because my 
goal is to print pictures that I love and not to
become a printer 
guru...
