Subject: RE: [Leica] OT: anyone tried Epson R800 yet?

Stan,
Epson was showing off the R800 at PMA.  Output was outstanding, the reps
talked about refined pigments that had less metamerism and a larger
color space.  However, Canon was showing their new 9900 that was
knocking out stunning 8X prints in 60 seconds.  Even Epson's own
diagrams on color space indicated a great similarity in the two systems.

The choice would appear to be very fast prints with a 25 year life or
five times slower prints with approximately 100 year life.

Life is good when every choice is a winner.

New product. Pigment inks CMYK, red, blue. 1.5 picoliter droplets. 8.5"
wide max.

Looks good on paper. I'm curious.
