Sandy,
I am currently using a 2000P. I believe of the two, the 2000P is the only one that produces archival prints. It has been reviewed in some of the photo mags but I can't remember which ones. All the reviews have been good. I am very pleased with mine. As far as I know, B&H Photo has the best price. That is where I got mine.
