Good grief man! It take 45 minutes or so for a full iris sheet print to go through! I realize 
it's extraordinarily captivating, but I've decided I can live without standing there watching 
every stroke of the head and every advance of the paper. So I go do somethin' <G>.

With nozzle checks between every sheet, the amount of printing time for each, brushing, 
etc., I can't do all that many of these in a day anyway, and I manage to watch the 
occassional dvd as well.

With color I expect to do more roll work, but primarily with the photo papers. Not even 
considering sheets for that.
Wish my cutter worked like yours, mine might as well have torn it, so I gotta trim it 
anyway.
