Well, Alan, it's the most-recent, 13-inches-wide "prosumer" pigment- 
ink printer. But there's also the even more recent 13-inch Claria-ink  
printer, which I guess is the top of the line for those "prosumers"  
who prefer it's new dye-based inks and don't mind to give up some  
longevity to get them. But there are larger "professional" grade  
Epson (pigment-ink) printers which are used for larger art prints.

No, Alan, I don't. But when my 1160's finally died, nothing I'd seen  
on this list made me think that any of those would be preferable,  
even at their lower prices, to the 2400. And what I've seen since  
reinforces that.
