Digital BW, The Print

I haven't seen the other post on this, but my 7000 is still humming along
fine. I do however use Image Print with it so the print quality is better
than most might get with just the Epson driver. It sounds like a "if you
have the time and inclination to tinker" situation by reading Paul's
response. So if you have the time.

Just to throw in the other side of the story, I'm still getting excellent
service from my old 7500. Particularly with a hextone monotone approach with
very light inks, these old workhorses can still make images that look great.
I'm personally using Eboni-6 in mine and very happy with it. Jon Cone also
has some Piezo solutions that I suspect work fine in these machines.

I've also printed with only 5 jets firing and display quality images can be
made with 5 channels.

Of course, if the particular machine is a high mileage one, it might,
indeed, be worth less than $0. But good samples of these older machines --
when obtained for very modest prices -- can be good economical routes to
large prints.
