Digital BW, The Print

Hi,

 

I have just saw the R1900 today at the Epson stand in Birmingham UK.  Personally, I don't think it is in the same league as the R1800 on colour output.  I would hang around for the new Ultra Chrome K3 ink printers.  The K3 ink set is a better ink to the Hi-Gloss 2 inks fitted to the R1900, and K3 inks are used in all the Epson Professional printer models.

 

Though I must admit it looks more substantial than the R1800 and if you are after a new printer it is not a bad choice R1900.

  The 1900 uses a new color arragement with respect to what were the blue 
  and red spots.

  I assume Epson has gone to a new cartridge type. So, I'm also assuming 
  it'll be a while before third party carts are available. As such, for 
  B&W printing, it's not a machine to consider. I'm sure it's a fine 
  color printer with OEM inks.
