Paul, Thank you for your response. I've been happy for the most part with my R2880 for about 2.5 years now. I doubt I can justify upgrading it. The R3000 will actually be for my brother to whom I advertised the R2880, and who discovered what seems to be the newer model, R3000.
I am surprised thought that R3000 is not backward compatible with "g", as I thought all the "n" devices must be.

Has much the same features of the R3000 - no swapping black carts, USB, Ethernet & WIFi, same paper sizes. The inkset is different, though - similar to the R1900, but larger carts. And the R3000 is a couple hundred dollars more expensive. If you want to run WiFi, be sure you are "n" capable. We have U-Verse and AT&T does not have any "n" routers so I had to use a separate router for the printer WiFi. -p On 9/8/2011 9:53 AM, Igor Roshchin wrote: > > Hi All: > > Has anybody had any experience with the new Espon R3000 printer yet? > It seems to have all the features of R2880, plus a few advanatages: > you don't need to swap between two black cartridges, and you have > Ethernet/WiFi connection in addition to the USB. > > Does anybody know if there is anything that would be missing in R3000 > compared to R2880? > > Igor > > PS.
