Digital BW, The Print

Peter;
Please tell me where you got a 4880 for only $900.00? I have not seen anything close to that.
Even if the sale isover, I would like to contact the place.

- C. David Tobie, 
Of course all of your points matter. My main use will be portfolio prints. I tend to create my own profiles so what is really important to hear from others is reliability, ease of use and quality. 
Thank you for your comments.

BTW, is there anyone in the San Francisco area with a 4880?

Mel
