However, the front loader is designed to take thick media and some 3880 printers do not load the thin Pictorico all that well, and you might have to load it several times. I experienced that problem, and one day the Pictorico jammed under the head while printing and the actually literally destroyed the head. Since my work with inkjet printers is 100% with Pictorico I decided to replace the 3880 with a 7800, and I consider it one of the best decisions I ever made.

I did remove the guide wheels on an earlier Epson printer, the 2200, and it worked great without them in loading Pictorico. Bottom line, if I were used an Epson 3880 for printing on Pictorico I would definitely remove the guide wheels.
