Professional InkJet Printer recommendations?

I purchased a Epson Stylus Photo R1800 Refurb from epson and I love it. Great quality prints, and it has C, M, Y, Photo black, matte black, red and green and the gloss optimizer. It has a great color range and can print 13x19 sheets or rolls that are up to 13" wide.

You don't say budget. Budget can have a large impact on the choice of printers although I have to say I personally would be looking at the high end canons

right I'm in the UK so not quite sure how much these would work out at.

I have a canon ix4000 (same as the ix5000 just slower) and its a lovely piece of kit, available at under £200. There are more photo orientated models which are more expensive - pixma pro 9000/9500 which cost £450 up, the quality of the prints on canon paper are stunning and I haven't seen a bad review yet.

the R2400's a great printer. had one, loved it. it's capable of great prints provided you use nice paper coupled with correct profiles.

i actually disagree - i have used epson exclusively for many years and my next printer will be the canon pro9000 or pro9500. i had an opportunity to work in an office with one for a few months and in my anecdotal opinion i think they offer better and more true color to offset prints, they tend to work better, print better quality on a wider variety of media, and overall seemed to be a lot less problematic than my epsons. i have always been a huge fan of the epson product, but i have definitely switched my opinion to canon.

having said all that, the only way to really know is to go try it out with some images you bring into a store and print on both.

right now B+H has the pro9000 on sale for $419 plus a $100 rebate.
