Re: 8x10 printing was Re: filmscanners: SS4000 and LS-2000 real value?
The 800 series of printers are promoted by Epson as their office models.
They emphasize speed, especially black text speed with these printers.
Although they seem to do fine in the photo/art department, they are
not part of their home "image" lineup. They are usually more costly due
to the extra large black head (and ink cart), and sometimes faster
motor. Of course, the the X7X series of printers breaks with this
numbering tradition, so the 870 is indeed the smaller brother of the
1270, which are both 6 color models.
