Paul, I had the impression that the contrary was true. I have a hard time getting good color prints from my Kodachrome slides using a LS-30 and an Epson 1200 with MIS archival inks. I bought wiziwyg and saw that I still have a long way to go to profile things correctly. (Any good teach-in site?) I understand that if you put the time to do this profiling, the results will be there. But am I using the right inks? For B&W I was thinking about buying an Epson 1160 (400$) and fitting it with the MIS archival quadro B&W kit. I have maybe 300 negs I'd like to print and ultimate quality is not my goal. (Most of my negs are contrasty.) So would this kit be a good idea? Piezo photography with the 1160 is also an option although expensive. Is it worth the money? Andre --
