Many are using the 1800 very successfully with color and with the 3-MK 
B&W approach, as well as others.  It has always been subject to some 
microbanding, but if multiple inks are used, they hide the problem.  
The 1800 Eb6-cart issue just cropped up -- it takes a while to show 
up.  I assume a spongeless CIS would avoid that problem.  I make 
mention of problems as soon as I find them.

As with any high tech product, the best of today will be obsolete 
tomorrow. You just can't worry about it. I'm still using an "ancient" 
7500.
