[Digital BW] Re: Beginner justification

Hmn...well, thanks for all the advice!!!  I ordered a couple prints
from printroom.com so I'll see how they turn out.  I'm still inclined
to get an R220 because I'm interested in playing around with it and
for the $$ it's probably worth it.  

Still, anyone know about how many 8x10's a set of cartridges will last
though with the R220?  

Thanks!!  Brian
