Hello Bernhard,
In response to your question about the 2100's electronics being robust 
enough for 24 hour usage; I presume that Epson uses the same electronics in 
the 2200 as they do in the 2100 ( except for maybe the 50 Hz vs the 60 Hz 
capability ) If so then, I say the electronics are robust enough as I have 
had my 2200 on 24/7 for over 20 months and not had any problems at all. Not 
one plug up; bad print nor banding etc. I have printed approximately 300 
8x10's and 150 11x14's or larger in this  time frame. (both colour & B&W )
Hope that's useful.

I would second what Owen said.

And what Paul said, I live in a very dry climate (Idaho) and never shut 
mine off.
