Don't forget that if you change inks, you will need to get a new ICC profile for the printer/ink/paper combination since the regular Epson profiles will no longer apply. It looks like Inkjetmall sells collections of profiles for the 1280 for $175.00, but there are numerous places that will do a custom profile for your specific printer/ink/paper combo for less than that.
