How true! The predecessor to the Epson 2200 was an HP 1120C, still working
quite well, but getting long in the tooth and not in the Epson's league. After
I used the paltry 10 sheets of Epson paper that came with the printer, I found
a half dozen left-over sheets of Kodak paper that had worked okay in the HP.
Bad move. Roller tracks down the page where the still-wet ink had lifted. A
half hour later, the ink was still not dry in places. None of that happened
with the Epson paper. I won't make that mistake again.
