Hello all. I am new to this forum so forgive me if this question does not apply here. I have done traditional B&W printing for years and only just now went to digital. I am curious to know which printer out there is going to give me the best bang for the buck. I am looking very hard at an Epson R800. Also, if this printer is acceptable, is there a preferred paper?

Piece of cake: Epson C86 and MIS EZ-inks. Although, you're limited to 8.5x11". Scott --- In DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com, "David N. VanMeter" <dnv1960@c...> wrote:

Not wanting to miss the best of both worlds, how does this printer handle color photos?

I have no idea, I put the EZinks into a "virgin" C86. I understand it's not as good as the 6-color printers. And far from the R-800 (which I do own and it's amazing. I'm waiting for that technology to be used in the wide-format Epson printers). Scott --- In DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com, "David N.

I use my C86 with easy-refill carts and MIS 2200 UC-clone color inks. The 4-ink printer is not as smooth as the best hextones, but I did over 100 cards last month with it and everyone thought they were fine. Paul www.PaulRoark.com

the color output is pretty good on a couple of papers, but it is either color or BW. Not both.....DM On Jan 18, 2005, at 4:16 AM, David N.
