George:
The answer is really pretty simple if you stop and think about it. Will the new printer make 
you money? If not, and you are tight financially, why are you even considering getting a 
new printer?

In the end, there will always be a newer better printing option down the line. HP & Canon 
just recently announced new pigmented printers that will soon be hitting the market. This 
just intensifies the competition.

One of these days a printer will come on the market that will do everything. Print on Gloss 
with out bronzing or gloss differential, print on matte art papers without having to switch 
black inks, and be archival with a money back 200 year warranty! And the final touch, inks 
will be cheap!
