Looks very well made (as it should, with its size) and the paper handling also looks better in all respects. It truly is the up-to-date descendant of the 3000, with better everything including bigger price. With the 220ml cartridges it should run at 15 to 25% of the cost of the 2200, according to a couple of sources. It's a bit hard to calculate out at what number/size of prints you break even vis a vis the 2200, but you get the other advantages of having both matte and photo blacks constantly installed, higher speed and of course, 17" paper width. The 2200 is the most expensive machine to run that I own. Good thing my car gets better mileage. - -- * Henning J.
