Joel, apparently the 1160 has been discontinued for a while in the UK.
However my local; trusted photo dealer has found a source who has a few left
:-) Glad you like the printer, makes me feel happier with my choice..was
slighty unsure.."is it old technology because it is discontinued." However
it seems to be the B+W printer of choice. I intend to use it only as a B+W
photo printer, I am having Darkroom access problems. Will probably use it
with a Quad archival quality ink package . Lot of new things to learn.
Passed on your suggestion to buy 2...one for colour , One for
B+W.....the comments were NOT suitable for this list :-( Regards,
John Duggan, Wales, UK.
