 Several online sellers show it as being in stock (I have purchased
 items from Googlegear and TigerDirect, both are reputable).  These
 are US-based - not sure about other parts of the globe.

 Thanks to all who replied to my post about apparent current scarcity of
 the
 Epson 2200 printer.

 The scarcity seems to be real.

 I have a 1270 which works well and will have to suffice until the
 drought
 is over, I guess.

 Thanks again to all.

How many ounces of ink are in the black and color 2200 ink cartridges?  I
notice that Epson's page does not say.

Thanks,

Frankly I want one now too, but it seems to me that the demand is so
high that production quality could very well drop, so I am holding off
for a awhile.

2002-08-31 Thread Arthur Entlich

There are a number of people with the 2200 in hand.

They exist (even on the west coast of Canada where I am (but are still
special order)).  You have hit the often created distribution brick
wall, which occurs early in the launch of a product that ended up very
popular and in demand.

Not knowing the exact demand, companies hold back on production in the
beginning, as it is better to have people hunger for a product (that has
no competition for people to run to) than to flood the channel and end
up with a dud that requires price slashing.

Further, I suspect Epson is making sure everything is to their liking
so that they have minimal returns and don't need to redesign, or if they
do, they can do so before many thousands of units get distributed.

So, if you must have one, bribe a store into providing you with the
next/first one they get in. ;-)

 There is some talk on the web about the Epson 2200.  I see web links to

 But the US seems to be dry.

 I searched the web, and some photostores, computer stores, and circuit
 stores list the printer, but none seem to have it in stock.  Even the
 online Epson store says out of stock.

 I can't print my bits on wishware.  Can someone tell me what is going on
 with this printer? Or suggest an equivalent (or better?) A3+ inkjet?

 I admit to lurking on this list for 2 years. Please don't hold this against
 me. It is a wonderful list, and I have learned a lot from the members who
 post to it.

 Thanks.

Stuart:

My experience is Yes and NO.

I live about 45 miles out of Seattle and the nearest honest-to-god camera
store near me actually has one that I could drool on. They also had some
test prints. I talked to the salesman who is testing this one.  He just got
it and, so far, has only run a few color charts.  The three I saw were each
on a different paper and, as he said, none were dialed in yet so I can't
really comment on the output.  I can take in a file of mine and have him
print it.  Fortunately one of the papers he is trying to set up on is the
paper I normally use.  I will get a much better feel for the output then. At
present, for color, I am using an 870 and, as long as I frame them behind
glass, I have been satisfied.

He told me that he was expecting four of them in two weeks.  I put my name
on the list to be called when they come in.  I was number three!

They are selling them for list - $695.00 USD.  I have been looking on line
and see them advertised for up to $40.00 less (plus shipping and handling -
$15 to $20?).  I think I will go with my local dealer. Having a store 15
minutes from my house that carries Photo paper (digital and traditional),
darkroom supplies, cameras, a wide variety of films - including sheet films,
books, and knowledgeable people who are fun to talk with is worth a lot more
than the on-line savings.

Anyway, now that I am through with my rant, yes the 2200 is real but, no, I
could not take one home. The salesman sounded more hopeful than sure that he
would have his units in the time he was told.  The media reviews I have been
reading are really high on this printer.  I expect the front load of orders
for them is high and the bigger dealers are getting them first.

Actually, here in Vancouver Tricera, the main Epson dealer, has at
least 8 or so at present, and has sold a lot already over the last
couple of months. While I was in there yesterday for some supplies
there were 3 customers there who all had bought a 2200 there.
