Ah...OK Steve. Thanks for that info. In that case I'll go with the 2400. Especially after considering the weight and price of the 4800. With the 2400, would the improvement in B&W quality vs. the 1800 be out of the box or would I need 3rd party inks? Also, if I am using it as a dedicated B&W printer and my 1800 for color, what would be the relative frequency of cartridge use for the 2400? For example, in doing color on the 1800 I tear thru Cyan and Magenta way faster than other colors. Thanks again for your help!
