I've been planning to do this for years, and I'm REALLY planning to do it
now: buy an inkjet for negatives. But I find little info in catalogs: For
one thing, is there any advantage to the 2000P for NEGATIVES (not "photo
quality" prints) over the 1270, other than outlay of an extra $400?
My main hesitation, however, is size... going to the trouble to learn yet
*another* infernal machine seems a lot for a negative only 13 inches wide
(oh damn, the gypsies stole my Ikea tape with both inches and centimeters
-- apologies to any gypsies and the inch-impaired). I don't care how long
the print is, gum escalates, now wants 15 by longer.
Of course the relatively small footprint of the 1270 is very attractive --
but does anyone know of greater print *width* available other than
commercial equipment ?
