Hi Richard, Similar to Nick, i had the epsons before the s9000 and after changing, i wouldn't for the world change back. For me, the most compelling reason isn't the quality of the prints (they're as good or better) but the speed at which you get them - the number of deadlines i've met because of this is huge. Infact, i'm waiting for a courier right now! I use epson matt heavy weight paper with it (profiled) and this seems to work just fine. One other thing in it's favour is that i've never had any banding with it (with the epsons i seem to remember waiting ages for the print , the couriers waiting too, and then finding banding, printing again, the courier's still waiting, the clocks ticking, the clients phoning ... nightmare!)
