Digital BW, The Print

I want to get a dedicated printer for piezo, and have been reading
several forums on the subject. It seems like the Epson 1160 is very
popular. What about other B size printers such as the 1520 or 1200?

Any advice is appreciated.

$850 for the kit...seems a bit steep coupled with the printer cost. 
Are the 6 color printers really going to do a better job outputting 
4 gray inks than a 4 color printer?

Sorry for having been so short.
If you really put your nose into the print you will be able to realize 
a difference between the 1160 and the 1280/90.  
In the 4 col printer images you may discriminate a certain digital 
pattern/structure which is less visible in the 6 col printers 
images - though both are virtually "dotless".
And both are capable to provide you with FINE ART PRINTS 
(depending on your input, of course).
I use both printers and I´m happy with both of them.
