Its time to consider stepping up to a bigger printer from my Epson 2200/3880's which have served me well albeit with the 2200 finally giving up on one print head now. I was wondering what useful lifetime folks were getting from their 24" printers - I.e. any natural aging considerations to worry about such as my 2200 finally dying off.
I'm considering the Epson 7900 or HP Z3200, although I note that both of these have been around a while and no doubt will be replaced immediately when I buy something for half the price and better capabilities! Anyway, given that a new printer of this size isn't an inconsiderable investment I'd welcome any thoughts on what I should look at circa 2012. A big consideration for me is ink clogging because I've just about had my fill of cleaning the Epsons as they can sit for weeks without printing. That is a big appeal of the HP plus the profiling option.
Thoughts?
(apologies - I know that this is like the perennial "which camera bag" question)
