RE: [Digital BW] Please help me decide on a printer purchase

The R220 is the smoothest and best for matte paper.  The C86 has a higher
dmax for glossy paper.  (I haven't used the C88.)

See http://home1.gte.net/res09aij/index.htm for my index of that gets you to
my notes on the printers.

You can get the R220 for cheaper on eBay, among other places.
