Re: 2KBO, 2-Channel BO Printing For R200/220

2007-09-04 by chriskjezp

Thanks for your help, Clayton. 

After a day of frustration I finally caved in to my long standing
desire to own an R2400.  I ordered it off of the Epson website for
$450 refurbished ($509 minus 10% discount coupon), and I'm told they
honor the $75 mail-in rebates for refurbished printers so it may only
end up costing me $375.  A good deal for such a great printer (yes,
I'm trying to convince myself!)

Interesting timing on this episode with the 220, since I've been
deciding between an R1800 with Paul's approach (necessitating RIPs,
MIS ink, etc.) or a 2400.  What today's frustration with the 220
leakage issues showed me is that I have neither the time nor
inclination to fiddle around so much with the hardware.  I want
something that gives me pretty good results with a minimum of
tinkering.  So the 2400 won.

I'm sure I'll be back here with questions about it too, but from
reading your article Clayton it seems much more "user friendly" than
some of the other approaches here.

Best,
Chris
