The main difference is the cost of the ink. If you are printing a lot, then it would be a lot 
more economical for get the 4800! If only 2-3 prints a day, then maybe the 2400 would be 
better, because pigmented inks do settle, and if you don't finish off a 110 ml cart within a 
couple of months, you are asking for consistency problems.

Of course, you also have the option of using 220 ml ink carts in the 4800, if you really 
print a lot!

Hi, Another really important distinction is that 4800s are calibrated 
and profiled individually by Epson during production and not the 2400. 
This means that the variability between different examples of 2400 are 
not controlled. This is not an issue if you generate your own printer 
profiles for each of the paper/ink combinations you print on.
