RE: [Digital BW] alternatives to fixed tone inkset printing

2006-11-27 by Paul Roark

When my 7500 was at risk of crashing, I was close to getting the 3800.  It
looks like a platform that can provide an excellent path to the best there
is.  It has all the flexibility needed for multiple workflows to can take it
to the top.

This is where I plan to start. Never having had the option of ABW before, 
the alternative that I used was QTR. However, I now also have an extra 
worthy printer (2200) so am considering the possibility of whether I will 
want/need it--and perhaps not. My 1280 has been put out to pasture.

Best, Diane
