Hi Judy
Epson 2000P should be much superior talking about permanence
of resulting prints and should be suitable for post script printing.
But this should not be of any importance for digital negs.
As I only print in monochrome (and sometimes for final work),
the latest model suitable for me is the Epson Stylus Photo 1200,
as permanent monochrome inks from Lyson are only available
for this modell (and older ones like EX) but not for the 1270.
They allways need some time to adapt their inks to the latest
printers.
Regards
Stefan
