Thanks Steven for the insight summary. I'm now printing with QTR and 
like the results, because earlier I printed BO mainly. And because of 
the 1.5 pl drop size, the output is quite smooth. Another thing I tried 
was to tone the print slightly. The output is very smooth, but if you're 
used to neutral prints, this may not be for you. At first I disliked the 
toned prints, but now getting to like them as well.

When I sell enough prints :-) (?) I'd buy a new printer more capable of 
B&W. But if people liked my HP Deskjet 9800 B&W prints, they are going 
to love the prints from Epson. And as I'm used to glossy prints with HP 
and also wanting to print colour too, I purchased R1800. With 300 \ufffd less 
then R2400, I can get a lot of ink and paper.

best
