That's good to hear. I really like BO prints, but my  C86 bands too bad.

Mine isn't too course. Once I picked up two prints I made, one BO and 
the other MIS EZ, and I couldn't tell which was which. I had to look 
REAL CLOSE to see the banding.

It's a shame we can't have a cheap 13x19" printer to do BO printing.

I have the 4800, and the "BLACK" mode uses just the 3 black inks, but 
the prints just don't have that nice luminosity as the C86 BO prints.

Any chance Epson will make an R1200?  : > )
