Hi Sven:

     I have not found any information about the Epson 4800 printer 
on an official Epson site.  However, I have been able to put together 
from some web searching a bit of sketchy information about the 4800 
and four additional printer models that Epson supposedly will be 
offering for sale soon.

     The new printers and their suggested retail prices reportedly will be:

13 inches wide:  R2400:     US$ 849 
17 inches wide:  Pro 4800:  US$1995 
24 inches wide:  Pro 7800:  US$2995 
44 inches wide:  Pro 9800:  US$4995
size unknown:     4400:  price unknown

     The new inkset used by the new printers (except the oddball 4400) 
will be:  Matte Black, Photo Black, Light Black, "Light Light" Black, Cyan, 
Light Cyan, Magenta, Light Magenta, and Yellow.

     The oddball 4400 reportedly will use Matte Black, Cyan, Magenta 
and Yellow.95

     I saw mention made suggesting that the new printers may be 
available in Europe sometime soon.

     The above comprises virtually all of the information that I have so 
far been able to find online about the new printers.
