I sold my 5500 in Sept, now I use a 44" Z2100 and 24" Z3100. I have had no problem with either feeding glossy media. They are not NEARLY as fast as the 5500, but the quality is impecable. If you're printing on glossy, the Gloss Enhancer really helps. I believe the Z6100 you're refering to is due out around September 2007. If you have any questions let me know.
