I have three epsons printers - one that I got for $149, the Epson 900 and I just recently got the 1280. The $149 printer is now my wife's but it really didn't do such a bad job on 5 x 7 and intermittent use. The 900 ( I don't think they make this one anymore) was fine but I got the 1280 for the possible use with a continuous ink supply system. The point being that occasional printing you probably should be OK with the 740. On the other hand if you are going to be doing many prints per week you might consider a more robust model. ernie - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us]On Behalf Of Michael Gerard Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 12:15 PM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: [Leica] Epson Stylus Color 740 printer LUGgers, I realized recently that, having just acquired Photoshop and a scanner, that I was only a decent printer away from having a basic digital darkroom. I already own a Epson Stylus Color 740 printer. Is it capable of doing decent prints, or should I donate this one to a charitable organization and purchase a new printer? Corresponding with Ted made me realize that good photo quality printers are available for a reasonable price, so I'm considering getting one, if my wife doesn't throw me and all of this new stuff out into the street first.
