My art department needs a new printer, I'm the IT guy and graphics is not my
strong point.

Can Photoshop 7 and/or Illustrator 10 take advantage of Epson's 6 and 7
color printers?

We need a printer for graphical presentations of artwork. In an ideal world
I'd like to match Pantone colors on a printout, but in reality I need colors
to match as well as possible and I need to be able to show the weave in a
fabric.

Is an Epson Stylus Photo 2200 overkill? What about the 1280?

Printing speed is an issue as well.... what printer would you suggest?
Programming a router is easier than finding a printer for an artist.
Thanks, Ari
