Its not really a printer for the B&W market, its a glossy color printer, to 
replace the older glossy color printer, the R1800. Its an improvement on the 
1800, for the things the 1800 was good at; not a universal solution to the 
worlds printing needs.

There is a story about a church looking for a new minister, spending two 
years interviewing candidates based on criteria that only Christ himself could 
possibly meet. Once that phase had passed they got down to the business of 
finding an actual human being to fill the post (sound anything like a Presidential 
Election?) We tend to treat every new Epson printer release in the same way: we 
aren't looking for incremental improvement on the previous model in the same 
line, we are looking for the perfect printer for all uses; and when we don't 
get it, we're unhappy.
