Epson vs HP for fine art bw???

2002-02-15 by antonisphoto

Hello all,

I just stumbled across the details for a Milton Greene exhibit in the UK. 
Apparently these are bw ( and color ) prints that were printed on Hahnemuhle 
papers (on whose site I read this). But the surprise is that they were done on 
an HP printer. 

Are we too entrenched in the Epson camp to notice other printers? Does 
anyone have pluses and minuses for HPs and other alternatives?

Here is an excerpt:
>>>Having taken hours of digital retouching in some cases, Joshua Greene 
has found a solution for outputting these prints onto Hahnemuhle Digital Fine 
Art papers using the Hewlett Packard Designjet 5000PS printer, which with its 
UV inks combined with the Hahnemuhle media will last up to 200 years, much 
longer than a traditional photograph.

Any thoughts?  Nij?...
