Re: Inkjet printers

Epson customer service recently informed me that the 1200 would print 
banners to 44". Quality archive paper is available in large sizes but you 
are stuck with the Epson inks as they are formulated for their print heads.  
If archivial quality is a priority check out manufactures web sites, some 
offer a variety of inks. Those die-sub and thermal wax printers might offer 
greater perminance.
