As I was saying I was up all night printing. On a roll so to speak.
Didn't mention I didn't do it with a line of trays in by bathtub and an
enlarger on my toilet. Can't claim to have ever done that. I bet Ted has!
Who else?
I did it with my new 88 dollar Epson Stylus Photo R220 I just picked up from
Staples down the street. 20th in Queens NY.
I've eschewed Hahnem?hle photo rag for a far superior printing media.
Its made by Avery.
Its called Matte White Clean Edge Business Cards 8877 Ink Jet
Extra sturdy matte coated business cards with no perforated edges
400 cards 2" x 3.5" I think maybe 20 bucks.

I've definitely done the "enlarger on a toilet, trays on the floor" thing a
few times.  But about that printer, my daughter just bought an R260
yesterday and I saw some prints last night.  Pretty impressive.  I don't
know the relation between the R220 and 260 -- I think the 220 was just an
earlier model of the 260.  Anyway, the prints on Epson Premium Glossy were
awesome.  This is the new "Claria" dye ink that they say will last 200 yrs.
Huh?
