Re:1160 and Piezography

<x-charset iso-8859-1>Hi
This is my first posting so apologies if you've already covered this topic.
I'm an ex-profess photographer, now into digital imaging, and live in Kendal
on the edge of the English Lake District.

I was particularly interested in Geoffrey Goldberg's feedback on Piezography
since I'm on the edge of trying it myself.  Unfortunately, I bought an Epson
1290 based on an indication that a piezography driver was in development for
it, now apparently not, so I too am considering an 1160.  Geoff, have you
seen Ian Lyon's review at http://www.rgbnet.co.uk/ilyons/piezo/piezo_1.htm
A 'superb' range of tones is claimed for this process, but I'm not sure what
is attributable to the paper used, particular printer, etc.  Are you working
at 8 or 16 bit?

Does anyone know where I can get an Epson 1200 in the UK?

Thanks

Tony Riley
