Brian, please check it out with your own printer, I'd be interested to
hear your results. Also, maybe you'd compare QTR sharpness to
Black-Only while you're at it? 

In my own testing there is no gain from 1440 to 2880 under any
circumstance (color, black only, QTR). 

I don't understand why, since 2200 reportedly defaults to 720 anyway,
but 1440 is distinctly better than 720 for me, using the Epson driver
(black-only).
