Basically yes but with a difference. I own a Z3100 too. The 
difference is that the Z3100 will lay down the gloss 
enhancer right with the other inks, like the Epson 
R800/1800. In the case discussed the gloss enhancer is laid 
down in a second print run after the image is printed. In 
theory one could lay down more gloss enhancer that way as 
the printed image could dry in between. In practice the 
Z3100 already lays down enough gloss enhancer. On top of 
that the Z3200 adds control of the amount of gloss enhancer 
applied. The other advantage of the Z3100/Z3200 in applying 
the gloss enhancer is the direct register when using the 
Economy Mode, only the image gets gloss enhancer, not the 
margins around. That is a lot more difficult with two print 
runs.
