Epson Helps You Print Your Large Life

"If the numbers of ink colours manufacturers build into their high-end photo printers goes on increasing, there’ll be one for every conceivable colour before long. If you don't believe us, witness the Epson Stylus Photo R2880 and its new UltraChrome K3 ink system. It uses a mammoth eight colours, including a 'vivid' magenta, two grey inks and a choice of blacks, making it ideal semi-professional and professional photo printing."
While we keep on talking about the great benefits of the paperless office, it is still a very, very long way away. Personally, I have found little use for printers, be it for photos or personal or business use. I like keeping everything digital. It is easier to store, access and manipulate. However, I can see how some people might want hard copies of things, especially photographs of precious moments. And for those, we turn to inkjet printers, now with more ink tanks! It has been a while since I've used printers, but they still appear to be quite popular, and ink prices are still high enough to make me cringe. I imagine that the print quality has gone up though, especially if they have more colour tanks than I can count on one hand. Anyone has experience with the prosumer level printers and the photos they produce?
