printing with the epson 3800

printing with the epson 3800

2007-02-20 by stoffelcharles

Is there somebody who knows if printing quality on semigloss or glossy 
media with the epson 3800 is better then with the epson 2400 whereas 
both printers use the same(?) K3 technology.
I mean furthermore is there virtually no bronzing with the 3800 or as 
much as with the 2400.

Aside from size and easier MK/PK ink changes, the only difference 
between the two machines is in the dither pattern, with the 3800 having 
a smoother more film-like 'grain' to it. But that doesn't affect how 
the ink reacts with any given paper: if you got bronzing with your 
paper choices before, you will still get it with the 3800.
