Way to go, Tom.

My test print for the 2200, chosen sort of at random, is the tranny that was my 
TOPE 8 shot, because of some pretty subtle colors, and because it's sharper 
than it appears when reduced to a TOPE-size jpg.

I've got two Cibachrome prints of this slide, one 11x14 and one 14x17.  Except 
for a tiny shift in color and little loss of contrast here and there, the Epson 
print is pretty darn close.  I expect to be able to fix that.  But even if I 
can't, I'll be satisfied.

If I get something so good I need a 24x36 print, I'll personally bring it up to 
Harrisburg and beg you to let me watch you print it.  :-)
