Yeah. I would tend to agree with this. My little Epson will spank this
HP for photo/art printing. This sucker is going to be great for bulk
stuff. For color diagrams/charts/etc., this thing is about the only way
to roll. If you are trying to get beautiful image prints, get an Epson
Stylus or a Cannon or something. Have you seen any of the wide ones?
Ooohh. Those are bad, phat, dope, fly, and stupid. (sorry. Slipped
into ghetto there.)
