When I first joined this list, I was using my i1 system, and fighting
with an Epson 1270, very similar to the 1280. Members of this list
then gave me similar advice: don't fight, ditch the printer and get
the 2200. It was excellent advice. Although, to be fair, Canon and HP
have since brought some very useful units to market.
