[Digital BW] QuadTone and Epson 1270/1280

Andy,

The curves to control the 1280 and the MIS VM variable-tone inkset are
essentially done.  The 1270 curves are just starting to be written.  So, if
you are interested in that inkset, the 1280 would have an advantage at this
time.

The 1280 with the MIS VM inkset is making very good quad prints.  There are
people on this list who use it.

You would need to go up to the Epson printer models 7000 (7500) or higher to get those lengths (84")...And
even with those, there is a length limit, but longer than 84"
