I've been printing with an Epson R220 and the MIS UT-3D inkset. Prints on Ilford Gold Fibre Silk paper are beautiful. The blaks are very deep. The prints have been turing out very nicely. It still requires some experimentation but this combo of printer, ink and paper is very nice.
I still haven't found the combo of ink and printer that I'm looking for. I like the quality I get from the R220, but being limited to a letter-size printer is frustrating. I've been hunting around for an Epson 1400. This seems like it might be the best solution right now. I can print most of the image sizes I'm interested on a printer this size. 12"x18" image size on 13"x19" paper looks lovely. And framed in an 18"x24" frame looks spectacular. If I become successful at selling prints, I'll look into a solution for a larger printer - everyone has a 13" printer. Making prints larger than 13"x19" starts to separate you from the rest of the crowd.
