What about 3rd party inks for the 2200... are those cartridges chipped?
If so, can you use anything else?
I'm wondering tho why there doesn't seem to be anything between 13 inches
wide and 24 inches wide. Since my (now ANCIENT !) 1160 isn't chipped, and
will do 12.76 inches wide,... think I'll hold out for the 16 inch, should
that ever happen.
But I gather the advantage of 2200 is less metamerism? More archival?
But i like not having to worry about cost of ink... (cost of head clogs is
something else).
