I've been wondering how the 4400, 7400 and 9400 that have been briefly mentioned online (and were at the trade show) fit into Epson's line up. Found out today - the '400' series use only four inks, matte black, cyan, magenta. yellow. They are targeted at pre-press, CAD, corporate. Cheaper, print faster, overall image quality isn't as good as the 800 series and more inline with four color press output - according to Epson.

But the prints I saw today from the 400 series still looked great to me - there was one huge print in particular of a central australian landscape, printed on the 9400, that looked fantastic.

Anyway, maybe you knew all that! I think there's potential for confusion there amongst customers - if you're a photographer you probably don't want a 400 series.
