a 3880 perhaps is a bigger deal breaker for you. If you really don't want the larger 4900, then how many pano's do you print? Is it something you can job out to a printing provider and keep the 17" and smaller cut sheet work in house? Or conversely, how many prints over 13" wide will you print, and likewise could you job them out and just keep 13" cut sheet & roll printing in house?
Or go to the 17" 3xxx series and give up roll printing. Keep the roll support and stick to a smaller format 13" printer or jump up to the much larger 17" 4xxx series.
I suppose I'll just keep hoping that Epson will include this feature next time around. What I would hope is NOT the case would be Epson's considering that the professionals just wouldn't want to be bothered with printing large panoramas on their own - another illogical rumination I suppose. My only guess as to why they don't include this is that there might be a problem supplying roll paper in 17" widths? That just doesn't seem logical to me so I'm really at a loss. I now own an R1900 which is servicable but the ink cartridges are too small - IMHO - and it clogs up too often and wastes ink in the head cleaning process.- albeit far less now that I've moved from southern California to Oregon. I very much want to have the ability to print 13" (or, in the case of the 3800 series - 17") wide by at least 60".
#Epson 3880 printer rebate upgrade#
I'm no longer in a position to upgrade very often (retired with small fixed income) but I'd consider spending some of my savings were Epson to include this capability on the next iteration of their 3800 series printers. I've asked this question before and, to my mind, have not gotten a reasonably satisfactory explanation as to why Epson would not include roll paper capability on their 17" wide series printers.
