Re: new printer

[Eileen Chun <raddogz@earthlink.net>]

Get the 1280.  I still have my 700 and love it, and I bought the 1280 to
do larger sizes as well as use pigmented ink.  The 700 is relegated to
do dye ink.  I am awaiting to install the cis dye inks when it runs out
of the cartridge ink stuff.

Good Luck
