The smaller printers turn over at a   more rapid pace, so its likely. But 
graphics printer technology doesn't usually get driven as far as letter/A4 
printers, so the likely size is a 2400 replacement at 13x19... say a 2800? There are 
not that many differences, so this would not be a huge change from the 
current 2400, though if it had both blacks in place, the improved dither, and a 16 
bit Photoshop export module, that would be a good start on an improved feature 
set.
