Contact me off-list and I'd be happy to send you a print produced on an Epson 1160 - once you go quadtone digital you will never go back to the wet darkroom. ;-) B.

I have two of them and they have both worked perfectly since I got them. You do need to use the Piezography software with the 3000's because it changes the rather large dot pattern of the 3000 to a dotless pattern. The large ink cartridges make it possible to use the quad-black inks, either Piezo or MIS, without the Continuous Ink System. Jon Cone says on his site that the 3000 is the perfect printer for Piezography.
