Re: Not satisfied with r220, should i get 2400 ?

2006-06-04 by ciscomanvann

Let me ask two questions if you dont mind.
1. The eboni black will make that much of a difference? Do I need to 
do anything  to use it?
2. How does the 2400 with the stock ink set stack up against the 
eboni black in the r220?
