[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]The HP 7960 is certainly a budget printer in terms of the cost of the unit, but there's nothing 'budget' about the black and white print quality - it really does produce the equal of custom RC black and whites right out of the box. Sadly, there is also nothing budget about the cost-per-print of those images when you factor in ink costs and print costs. Because to get archival prints, and top image quality, you do need to use a top HP paper or the equivalent. -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of grduprey@rockwellcollins.com Sent: Thursday, September 02, 2004 10:09 AM To: lug@leica-users.org Subject: RE: [Leica] the future happened yesterday Daniel I just hooked up my new HP 7960 printer and the B&W is just great right out of the box. No fiddling needed. Gene PS: As long as I'm off topic ... The Epson R800 or the HP XXXX (four or five numbers). What's the best way to go for printing budget b/w? (I regard those two as budget range so if there's something else in that price bracket, I'd like to know). _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
