Why is that?  I mentioned today that their demos were likely chosen to
show the printer at its best, but what would be different about scans of
normal images?  The demo print in the materials I got from them (French
sidewalk cafe scene) was printed with Adobe PhotoDeluxe, thus presumably
is something one could, with sufficient skill and effort, replicate.  Is
it a question of the scanning, the nature of the image, or something else?
It appears the printer is *capable* of really good output.
