[filmscanners] RE: Compact Cameras



I am familiar with it and have heard good things about it from users; BUT
that is one of the sorts of things that I consider as the EXTRA WORK
required to remedy the issues I am speaking of. :-)  First, I believe that
you almost need to have a dedicated printer for B & W printing to use it:
second you need to use special inksets.  Third, even if you do not choose to
use the CIS but stick with carts so as to be able to switch easily between
B&W and color, you need to flush the system of the previous inks in the
printer prior to each changing back and forth from B&W to color.

Another more expensive option which I am told helps to remedy the issues is
to purchase a RIP to use with the printer instead of the printer's driver.
