If you can believe those Wilhelm (sp?) test the HP Designjet prints will outlast Epson prints by a factor of at least 2. But I will not be around to care.

you haven't mentioned anything about fade resistance. the Epson is much more so than the HP. don't know if you care, but i do, which is why anything other than an Epson won't do for me.

The Epson allows B&W tone control through its driver and the QuadToneRIP driver handles it as well. The individual tanks are a bit fussy for me, the Epson software has its good and bad points, took a while to learn, and I could probably do better with some more time to learn it.

The HP allows you to mix and match three of 5 recommended ink carts to achieve a wide range of B&W tones. Their software seems easier and faster to use. It's not super fast but it's fast enough.
