Re: [Digital BW] Epson 1160, 1280, 3000 ????

Yeah... Cleavis emailed me a pic of his... I'm going to try stacking.

The good news is that the 1160s (if you can find them) are cheap 
enough to dedicate to different inks... And they are so slow, you 
really need a few running at once or you go nuts with boredom <g>.

What would YOU rather have...eleven 1160s or one 7000?
