Now I'm going all digital I'll be wanting a way to print my photographs. I used to have an Epson 3880 way back (or may have been just the 3800, I forget) which was an amazing printer. It seems digital printing has moved on since I last touched digital.
I've seen Epson 3880s on ebay for as little as 300 quid, which seems extraordinarily cheap. I do realise these printers are getting on a bit though so perhaps a reflection of that.
I'm looking for some advice whether it's worth the additional expense of the P800 over the 3880 (I could buy two or three 3880s for the price of a new P800).
My concern about a cheap 3880 would be print heads needing replacing, new set of inks which would definitely put it in the P800 price range.
Advice?
Thanks!
