I'd like to get myself a printer but somehow I do not see the point of it if I can't print bigger than A4. The problem, of course, is price. The Epson 1400 seems interesting. What about Canon IX4000/5000 or any other alternative? Is the cost such that, after all, I really should buy an A4 printer and see later for an A3 model ?
If you want to print B&W, you want the Epson K3 inkset. That says to me buy either the R2400 as a refurb or an R2880 minimum.
Both these printers will take roll paper which is a good economy for small print sizes. The R2880 will also print DVD/CDs with a printable surface.
The R3800 will print up to 17x22 inch cut sheet and has ink tanks that are 5x larger at 3x the price ... If you print often, that saves substantially on the cost of ink. I wish it had been available when I bought the R2400.
