Used Epson - which one for a total beginner?

Used Epson - which one for a total beginner?

2007-01-06 by marcinemem

Hello Everybody!

This is my first post here and I am totally new at BO printing. I am
interested in achieving the best possible results with the lowest
possible budget :) I love BW photography - I have MF 6X6 TLR, 2 35mm
Olympuses, Canon dSLR and Epson scanner. I develop all my negatives by
myself and then, not suprisingly, scan them. Now I would like to print
them at home... MIS inks are not available where I live but I can
order Lyson inks. I found some offers on used Epson printers - which
one should I choose to get the best possible results - 1270, 1290 or
maybe (I don't need A3 capabilities) Stylus Color 740 or 800 will be
enough?

Thanks in advance!

Marcin
