Re: [Digital BW] Best SMALL printer for B&W printing

Clayton,
 I know it's been a while for you to remember but how do you think the R200 
BO compares to what you got from your old 870 using BO? (which I still have 
BTW). Or compared to the 2200 for that matter? (you may have covered this 
but I forgot exactly what you said if you did).
 Thanks,
 Richard
