[Digital BW] Re: 2400 Vs. 2200 (4800 vs 4000, 7800 vs.......)

2005-08-11 by bghess_sp

Just installed the 4800 - simply amazing. Fast, quiet, BIG. I've been
using a 2200 with MIS UT7 inks up to this point. Initial comparison of
a print that I thought looked great with MIS - doesn't really compare
to the K3 ABW print. Blacks are blacker, tonal gradation is smoother,
just an all around better looking print. Asthetically, which is what I
think the original question on this thread was asking, the K3 print
looks a lot better. This is out of the box, too. B&W printing just got
a whole lot better, not to mention easier (a hell of a lot more
expensive, too!)
