[filmscanners] RE: Printer drivers at 720ppi

["" <snsok@cox.net>]

Berry,

The 2200 is the first decent color printer I have owned and used for "fine"
prints. Previously, I scanned my transparencies, put them on a CD and had
them printed by an service bureau on the Pictrograph 3000 or 4000.

Through trial and error, mostly expensive error, I had finally gotten decent
color matching.

I find the 2200 to be on a par with the Pictrograph results and it's sure a
lot cheaper to make a mistake. An 8X10 on the Epson probably costs around
$US 1.50.  A Pictrograph, including postage both ways and the disc, was more
like $US20 for the same sized print.

Stan,

Okay, this is OT a bit, but it relates to the work flow with a film scanner.
I am wondering if you have upgraded to the 2200 from a different printer and
what improvement you may have noticed.  I am using an 1160 with CIS pigments
and seriously thinking of getting a 2200 for improved color.  Can you say
something about your experience going to the 2200 in relation to whatever
you had previously?

Thanks,
Berry
