I received the new Calumet Photo ad in the mail today. It shows a 2200 with
a Lyson bulk ink system! 7 inks all in a tray next to the 2200. $399.99

Marrutt in England has recently shown a bulk system for the Canon 9000 
printers as well, and offers the Lyson Quad Black and Small Gamut inks in 
bulk (4 oz or 1 liter bottles) along with it.  I'm considering going with 
one of these inks to take advantage of the speed of my Canon printer - a 
little over 2 minutes for an 8x10, compared to over 10 minutes for my Epson 
860.  If I need a dozen prints that starts to add up.

So far my local photo store in St. Louis (which stocks the Lyson Quad Black 
for Canon but in cartridges only - VERY $$$$$ that way) hasn't been able to 
find out when the bulk inks are supposed to be available here, but if need 
be Marrutt says they ship worldwide for free.  But if Calumet has the stuff 
it shouldn't be long until it's available down here as well.

Cheers,
Kip
