Default c-120 or CX8400

I actually just ordered a c-120 this morning but am now wondering if I should have gone with the cx 8400 instead.
The cx 8400 is an all in one printer and is the same price but will it deliver as good quality for transfers as the c-120 will?
It appears they both use the durabrite inks but the c-120 comes with 2 black cartridges instead of 1. Does this benefit to the image quality over the cx 8400?

Default Re: c-120 or CX8400

If you are doing transfers, you made the right choice. I don't have any personal experience with the CX 8400, however i do know that as a general rule with all-in-one printers...they can do a lot of things, but can't do any of them great. So your quality with the C120 will be better. The reason for the two blacks in the C120 is to improve speed, which it does. It wasn't designed as an improvement in printing quality.
