I own both the Epson 3800 and the 4800. The 3800 is my general purpose/color printer (as it holds both matte and photo black) and the 4800 is to become a dedicated BW printer (Eb-HPPK mix).

I must say, the extra cost of the 4800 does reflect itself in overall mechanical quality plus the option to print on rolls. I was lucky to be able to buy a 2nd hand one that still was brand new, so it is wactually cheaper then my 3800. In terms of print quality there is no difference.
