Re: printer recommendations?

[phritz phantom <phritz-phantom@web.de>]

interesting.
the epson "d120" uses "durabright ultra" ink and the "p50" uses "claria 
photographic" ink.
does someone know how the uv-blocking characteristics of those two inks 
compare?

apart from that the only differences between the two concerning the 
print head are that with the "p50" it says only "micro piezo technology" 
and that it uses 6 inks and with the "d120" that is uses 4 inks, "micro 
piezo technology", "microdot 3 pl (pico liter, i guess)"  and "variable 
sized droplet".
is there a whole lot of difference in quality to be expected between the 
two?

thanks
phritz
