Jim, I was just talking with my supplier about ordering a Z today and I froze and didn't do it.
All these posts are really driving me nuts. I've been trying to decide about this machine for a year now. Some love em and some hate em with a passion. If the posts on LL are an average experience then this printer has real issues. If we are just hearing from a small faction of people seeking solutions, then that is something else. One dealer I spoke with today said he has never seen so many DOA printers in his life. If the vast majority of these complaints are about simple firmware glitches, and the rollers not working on fiber gloss media I can certainly live with that. The HP Satin rc paper is excellent for the time being. But if we are talking about poor workmanship and faulty circuits and poor quality control of parts then I think I'll have to pass, reluctantly. I just don't know the answer to that question yet. I do know that Epson will answer with a strong 44" machine this fall that will certainly contain the advancements of the 11880. That machine also has a free ink channel that isn't even being used yet (glop). My delemma is I don't want to wait until the fall. My 9600 is so slow and I'm still switching out blacks like I can afford it. >From all the people you've talked to about this Z would you do it again or not? I know that is a difficult thing to answer if you already spent 6 grand. Anyone else I would love to hear your pros and cons.
