Thread: what do you buy first?????????

    what do you buy first?????????

    It may be time to "buy" stuff-so which would you purchase first & in what order---a rather "newbie" question.

    I have a pro Epsoson4870 scanner & have PSCS2. I'm interested in an Epson 3800 printer, WACOM tablet and Lightzone softwear & there is more, however, that's enough at this time.

    Your thoughts--thank you

    The printer. I use the Wacom tablet, it's nice but not a necessity, plenty of people do fine with a mouse. I'm not sure what Lighzone software but if you have CS2 iI doubt that it's a necessity either.

    The printer by all means. The 3800 is very nice right out of the box. Me personally, never got used to the Wacom tablet. LightZone is good, but you can live without it for a while. It does need some updating first.

    Get the printer first- prior to buying the WACOM see if you can try one out- I had one and couldnt sell it fast enough but then again I prefer a trackball to a mouse. Not sure about the software, I use Photoshop CS and it does everything I need

    The printer. For most work I don't use the tablet.
