Digital BW, The Print

I guess I wonder if the market in fine art b/w market is big enough to 
make Canon want to duke it our with Epson.  Canon ( I am sure like most 
companies ) is run by accountants these days and Canon being a public 
company is responsible to its shareholders to not make bad financial 
decisions. It could take a fairly large up front investment and from a 
financial viewpoint I wonder if the return is there? It, however, would 
sure be nice to have options.
