It used to be that dye-inks had greater color gamut than pigment inks. The printer’s solid, 25-lb silver-and-black chassis has a simple design. This new printer delivers professional-quality color prints at an affordable price, making it a good choice for beginning digital photographers.

I know the K3-inkset of the R2880 (or the likely Pro 3880) beats the SP1400 in black and white printing, but for color prints, the SP1400 seems a very strong contender. Epson is replacing their venerable 1280 dye-ink printer with the improved Stylus Photo 1400.

With innovative ClariaTM Hi-Definition Ink, plus ink droplets as small as 1.5 picoliters, you're sure to see the finest detail. You get rich color and detail for enlargements, displays and more. While the rating under the same conditions for the Pro 9880, using pigment inks (the new VM K3-inkset) is LOWER, namely 85 years (still respectable): The Epson 1400 takes photo printing to the next level with fast and impressive 13x19 prints at a breakthrough price. According to Wilhelm Research, the display permanence rating for photos printed on Premium Glossy Photo Paper, displayed and framed under glass, is 98 years: What really surprises me is the longevity of its dye-based prints. In the meantime I've been looking some at the Stylus Photo 1400. I've been looking at the R2880, but am hoping that the Pro 3880 will be introduced in the near future (Photokina?) (cheaper running costs). I use the Pro 9880 at work, so am familiar with the new K3 inkset with VM.
