The R2400 is discontinued, replaced by the R2880

And if you never intend to try different inks, I think I might look at
the HP printers too, and maybe see what Canon has. Compare the cost of
the inks per unit volume instead of the price of the printer. Then
compare the prints. I say the cost of the inks is important because
that is what gets used the most, and is the constant draw on your bank
account.

If you are going to move to a third party pigment ink, then Epson is
still the best choice for this, and it really comes down to the width
that you want.
