Limtex, HP did not provide any specs for the new printers on its web site. Without them, it would be difficult to compare. The Epson, up to now at least, has the best resolution - about 700 x 1440 dps. HP says its new printers automatically align the print heads, which is an improvement over earlier models. Epson needs no alignment whatsoever because one print head takes care of all the colors, including black. But HP seems to be heading in the right direction, where the average user gets good looking, quality prints with a minimum of work. Will HP become the replacement for Kodak in the color print market? Regardless of whether the original image is on film or is digital, I can see the day, in possibly just a couple of years, when ALL color prints will be digital, and when the inks used in digital processes will be as permanent and resistant to fading as those in conventional color prints. |
