I can not see the logic for HP not to introduce a hybrid 
between the B9180 and the Z3100 24". One that could compete 
with the 17" pigment models of other manufacturers. Possibly 
only with the calibration but without the profiling to keep 
it competitive in price. 12 inks though. It is one of those 
stepping stones that leads customers to bigger models. The 
technology is available. Strong point would be the easy and 
affordable exchange of heads when necessary. The competition 
has no answer to that one way or the other. An important 
issue when head price is compared to printer price, see some 
discussions about the Canon iPF5000 and Canon's non existing 
head warranty.
