Default Re: Epson 3800 - cheaper in the long run?

Paul,

This is a wonderful printer. I know several people on this forum besides myself who have this printer. However, I believe the largest you can print is 17 X 22 inch. I do not know if there is a way to print A2, but I strongly suggest you call the Epson Tech. Support folks and double check. Paul these people are very good and very helpful. Also, there is an expert who owns and uses this printer who works at B & H. His name is Sherman and he is on Extension 5390.

My costs with this printer are very low relatively and I have almost zero wastage, clogging or maintenance issues. The next Epson up, namely the 4800 will do what you want and also priint roll paper. Its use cost is even lower as it uses larger ink cartridges, but it also takes up more space and is heavier. If you consider the 4800, check the 4880 before you buy as I think this has an upgraded engine similar to the 3800.

Tom
