Color Printers
Hi I have bought an Epson 950 and I'm very pleased with it. I use a Minolta
Dimage Dual II scanner and allways scan with highest resulotion, I have make
parts of 35 mm film on the 210.. roll paper in panoramic size with a size of 650mm
loong, with a very good result. I am often little sad that I did not by the 2100 to
have the A3 size. The only problem I have had is the printer sw Epson Photo
Quicker that in the beginnig was very good, but now often stop after non to two
prints and say it can not fint the file to print from, even when ith files stillis within
the programe and is still possible to open within it. i have reinstaled the printer SW
and the Photo Quicker, but still is the problem there. Regards Hans Andersson

Before buying an ink jet printer make sure that camera and printer are compatible.
Inparticular check out HP printer site as there is a list of compatibilities and non
such.

The latest in inkjet printers, the Epson 2200, has finally made available a high
quality printer to the masses. No longer do I have to send out for large prints. With
quality papers and the archiaval dyes the 2200 meets or exceeds most
photographers' requirements in a photo printer. It can go up to 13x44 inches. I
highly recommend this printer,--currently priced at about US$700.

I just purchased an Epson 2100 (Asian version of the 2200) and have been
documenting my experiences with it. http://karavshin.org/blogs/black-coffee/

I just successfully printed an 8" x 60" panoramic image on my Epson 785EPX
printer. Because the process required some shenanigans, I thought I'd document it
for posterity. Many of the Epson photo printers support roll paper. (Mine
supposedly only supports 4" wide paper, but the holder for the paper had places to
hold an 8.3 inch roll, and it worked!) According to the Epson web site, under
Windows 2000 or XP, the print driver supports printing a document up to 129"
long. On the same web page it also says the driver supports user defined paper sizes
up to 44" long. The two statements, while seemingly contradictory, are compatible:
You can, if your image is less than 44" wide, setup the paper length in the print
driver to match the width of your print. You can then print the image in one step.
