Tom C. said: I find that I usually need to print more than once or twice, before I get something decent. So it's sort of like printing everything anyway by the time I get done. I have one of those two-year old antiquated Epson 800's.
Anybody want to make a blanket statement about how much better printers have become since two years ago and how easy it is to get a "photo quality" print out at any size (large or small) that rivals the samples they show in the stores? Or is it still just as hard and time-consuming? Tom C. ----- Not Having used all of the "photo quality" printers, I can't really make a blanket statement like that. But, what I can do is point out the short time between "generations" of printers. I've owned my Epson Stlus Photo 1200 for just a bit over a year now. In that time, I've seen the release of the 1270 and the 1280, both very significant updates, if I can believe the folks that write about them. So. in just over a year, my printer is at least two models obsolete. If yours is two years old, you're also using an obsolete printer. Still, I find it a lot tougher to get a good small print out of my printer than it is to get a good large print. No doubt because my PhotoShop skills aren't anywhere up to the level they should be. You'd think small prints would be a "piece of cake" but not in my case. Len --- - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
