driver installed, how's the ink?

Driver installed no problems at all - I'm running Windows 2k, USB 2 interface. Have firewire but will mess around with that later on. The guys in Melbourne mentioned XP users need to run the install twice to get around a glitch of some sort, sorry no extra info.

So how's the ink levels after the charge? No surprises here, in aussie dollar terms though that's probably around $200-$300 (sorry, messed up my math last night) worth of ink used in the charging process... (no I don't use these print settings - this is how the driver opened the very first time, just interested in ink levels)




So, how much of that ink/$ just got flushed into the 4800's fresh nappy? Here's how much, it's worse in the flesh :)

Pete,

Thanks MUCH for your work in documenting your experience with the 4800! I am to receive my own 4800 tomorrow (I hope...).

You mention the glitch in installing the driver in XP (which I use). When I receive my machine, do you recommend going straight away to installing the newest/updated driver from the Epson site, or will I need to first install the original driver that comes with the CD in the box?

Thanks!
