The print quality for photos is about as good as on windows (so I'm told) or a Mac (I have the parallel port connected to an eCS machine and the USB to an iMac). But the driver utilities (nozzle check, head alignment, head cleaning) don't work with this printer/driver combination and the print quality tops out at 1440x720 while the printer is capable of 2880x720 DPI. So I have started an email survey to see what if any interest there is in getting this printer better supported. Please send all replies to I am particularly interested in responses from anyone that would use this printer in a commercial/business application or setting, but replies from anyone truly interested in needing a photo quality printer under eCS-OS/2 are also appreciated. - Please briefly describe your company (company focus / size of company / use of OS/2)? - If you are interested in being contacted about this please include an email address, contact name and company name (if applicable). - How many Epson Photo 820 printers (current and future) would you need? - Would you prefer support for a different Epson model? If yes, please explain (model/quantity needed/why preferred). - Why would you need 2880 DPI printing? - Which applications would you be using with this printer?
