I used one for a couple of years. Wide carriage, many paper feed 
options, but won't print full A2 paper width. The print head 
technology is not as good as the later printers, but certainly 
acceptable. nomorecarts does not make a CIS system for it, but I 
have read that the one for the 1160 can be adapted. I used it with 
the Cone inks for some time.

Mine is now old-in-box, waiting for me to get it in for a CLA. The 
B/W printing is now handled by an 1160 with a CIS system and 
Cone inks. I've moved color photo work to a 2000P, and have a 760 
for utility printing on A4. Even the 760 makes smoother prints on 
A4 with Epson inks than the 1520 does.
