<< I would appreciate any ideas about which Epson printer and what paper 
and ink might handle the following task best.

1- I am printing what will end up being several books and I need to 
print both sides of the page.  This will mean loading each page twice. Not 
sure what papers are out that are archival on both sides

2- Several of the books will have generational family content and I 
would like them to last for several generations, i.e., over a hundred 
years..   Well, this leaves the Stylus 2000P or 5500

3- Many of the pages will contain color photographs taken with digital 
cameras and scanned old family photos. With the photos will be text 
telling family stories and providing family history.  2000P or 5500

4- The books have been and will be set up in a page layout program 
allowing the artistic presentation of the pictures and texts.  For photos 
(TIF) and text, your fine, if logo's are involved or if the photos are 
resized in Quark or some other Postscript software then you will need to find 
PostScript software for the 2000P or 5500

5- Eventually I would like to go beyond the 8X10 boundries of the 
average printed page and use larger paper....  2000P and 5500 handled up to 
13" wide paper

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. >>
