Thanks for the correction, I whipped that reply out at 1am and it was a
long day at a day long photo shoot at Pamida Shopping Center. Just
yesterday I would say between the two photo printers we took with us
they together put out over 200 8x10s (averaged 20 different 8x10s in a
hour at the peak) which may not sound fast but each print was enhanced
and I have countless packages of 5x7s and wallet sheets to print up
starting Monday. I know there are lots of ppl that post negative on
Epsons but I can't, "not yet"!
