In considering a wide format printer for achieving the full range of shades
of gray while retaining a good pure black black and still offering intense
whites and highlights, it seems as though Epson is the printer of choice for
most of you. Is anyone aware of a website where such capabilities are tested
and measured or the "best of the best" grayscale inks and methodologies.
Even in reading the Epson materials it seems as though one sometimes has to
change out the blacks and do expensive system flushes. Might there actually
be a printer out there where I can print color and black and white without
having to constantly be changing ink sources. I will say that with my Canon
i9900 the ease of use has been wonderful, but now I need something with a
wider format and also geared to broad ranges of gray/b&w while retaining
color abilities. Maybe there simply isn't an existing turn key answer.
Trouble with Epson is that 2000.00+ hurdle for the next step up.
