    Print out a circle from illustrator/indesign, are the edges sort of choppy?

    I think its just shitty epson quality to be honest if that is indeed the case. Same thing happened to my friend, he bought a letter sized 6 colour epson to do small prints for meetings and proofs and stuff, and the quality was horrible, even after the person at the store recommended it (same thing as you, good photos, bad text and line qual). He called epson and they told him it was because he didn't buy a post script printer (which you really don't find in consumer end ink jets). Anyways I think that was a bunch of bullshit on their part seeing as the line quality on my 6 colour canon inkjet is great and its not postscript.

    However, never expect text from any inkjet at small sizes to be as crisp as a laser print.
