Needing a wide carriage printer comparison

gpgold

I need to retire my Epson 1270. I have used it for the last 3 years with a continuous flow ink system. Other than some expensive maintenance events it has been cheap to operate. I like to print on 13x19 paper. I have been reading about the following:

Epson R1800
Epson 2400
Canon i9900
HP 8750

From what I am seeing the Canon has an improved gamut for color printing and great speed and image detail. The HP sounds like it is great for B&W. Do you own one of these - what are your pros and cons?

My girlfriend wants to get me one of these for the holidays! Please help me decide.

regards,

Gary

Like most photographers, I am using InkRepublic.com continuous ink system on my Epson R2400.
The result is great.

Thanks very much for the response and the links. I've been out of town and it's great to find this kind of feedback now that I'm back home.
