Thank you, Marvin, for your comments.

I am tempted by the 1290 because the print quality is said to be good - but the archival quality of the inks is about 25 years. I am still evaluating my art work to see if it is worth longer lasting repro's

It's all about the balance between quality and lightfastness. The answer might be the 2200, but that would seriously 'outbalance' my wallet!

Thanks again,
Sophie
