In the past the problem for Epson has been to keep their longer lived 
Pro-line printers up to an image quality approaching the faster changing 
consumer printers, not exceeding it. The Pro-line machines sell themselves to 
their market for reasons beyond image quality (RIPs, roll feed, larger carts, 
advanced servicability, etc). I'm pleased that the 7600/9600 *match* the 
image quality and technology of the 2100/2200 for a change!
