Digital BW, The Print

Hi Ron

Just my personal opinion, no wish to offend 1280 owners.
I've had the 1280 for about 2 years, first with Epson cartridges
and then with MIS CFS. I use now the 2200 which I've had for
about 1 year, with Epson cartridges, except the black where I use
the MIS ebony.
I believe the 2200 is a vast improvement in terms of reliability, meaning
less prone to clogging. If you use a CFS it does not matter but if you
go with cartridges, having separate ones allows for better management
of ink consumption. It is also less noisy, and a little bit quicker. Print
quality is also better but not vastly improved over the 1280.
So if you can find a used 2200 in good condition it is well worth it,
IMHO.

Regards

Andrei
