  1. Hi Megan: I've been using Epson 17-inch-wide printers for about 10 years and I recently tested the Epson SureColor P800 for Professional Photographer magazine. Unfortunately, the article is not available for free online. Here's a link to a PDF of the Table of Contents: http://www.ppmag.com/current_issue/pdfs/1115/contents1115.pdf . And here's subscription info. You may want to see if the current issue is included if you subscribe. I think the P800 is a fantastic printer. I especially like the added black density (especially on matte papers), roll paper handling and lack of automatic cleaning cycles that I'm hearing. You can read my review of a similar printer, the Epson SureColor P600 here on PopPhoto.com: http://www.popphoto.com/gear/2015/03/printer-test-epson-surecolor-p600 If you don't need roll paper handling and can save a lot on a new 3880, that's certainly still a good option. One thing to keep in mind when comparing prices is that the P800's "starter" ink cartridges are 60 ml compared with the 80 ml cartridges that come with the 3800/3880. After the starter cartridges, 80ml cartridges are the only option, just like with the 3800 and 3880. Hope that helps.
