Thanks Bob and Bill for your feedback. I take it the 3000 and 3880 use the
same ink and probably have the same output quality. Don’t need 17” and don’t
have room for it anyway. There is a $250 rebate on the R3000 until the end of
the month. Makes it very reasonable compared to the next lower model.
I was reading the manual and I guess you still waste a lot of ink when
switching between Black cartridges, but you don’t have to physically remove the
ink and replace the cartridge. I was under the impression you did not waste
the ink, but I guess it uses the same nozzles on the print head, so if has to
flush the line of the old ink to use the new ink. I still have a few days to
decide.

Good printer. 13" wide paper limitation. 3880 is 17" max width. Pretty good
price with rebate from Epson, but you will need to consider what ink and cost.
Ink cartridge it ships with is starter and you may need to buy more soon.
Good luck!

up from my R1800. The reviews of the R3000 are pretty good. And I like the
Idea of multiple B&W cartridges and that you do not have to swap them out and
waste all that ink.
How are the B&W images? I assume the color is as good or better (most
likely) than my R1800.
