Good thing this isn't a "printer" forum, Art...one of the big hissy-fit
topics in large format printer circles is whether piezo or thermal heads are
better, and they DO just go on about it.
I think the real difference is in how good the software is that drives the
heads, not the type of head.

About "giclee"...I have told some people that urine or semen is a major
component of the process...as in "Oh baby, I'm going to giclee", or "I
really need to go giclee".
