The 820 clogs on a regular basis. It's used erratically, but isn't idle for any extended periods. In the 'prox four years I've owned it, the printing speed has slowed by about 50%. Still produces surprisingly good images. Time to replace it, however, with another Epson. Something with 11x16 capability. R1800 is an attractive choice, but do enough B&W to consider the R2400. Any opinions as to how much "better" the B&W produced by the R2400?
