I am using a 44'' Z2100 purchased refurb for $2100.  The results on 
canvas are fantastic.  Ink useage on the Z series in general is not 
excessive esp. compared to what is typical for Epson.  I'm not sure 
what the opinion about not cost effective is based on.  A refurb 24'' 
Z2100 should be something the questioner looks at seriously.  
However, I think he is correct in targeting the DJ130 as the cost 
minimizing way to print 24'' canvas.
