Re: [QuadtoneRIP] BW printer pick help request

Actually we consider these printers about equal. P800 may have a leg up in terms of quality (and parts availability) but they are essentially the same printer internally.

The big caveat with the P800 is Epson’s robust and ongoing effort to lock out their customers from using third party ink . . .

Best,
Walker
