street price is about $350 performs better than the Epson on plain paper.
For an extra $100 the HP890?(not sure about this number) is the same
printer with a longer duty cycle (not required for lower prints per month
requirements). The HP has better paper handling than the Epson Stylus. The
Stylus is slightly better with the expensive glossy papers at its highest
resolution but the latest HP units have really caught up technically. Both
units are getting very close to photo real on the nice but expensive paper.
If you have high coverage requirements for color, it is going to be
expensive per print. These units are great for small production quantities
and comps. Standard ink printing is still better and cheaper for larger
quantities. The HPDJ722C is best all around deal.
