Seems to be sort of a scaled-down 4800 printer.
-30 pounds lighter, and a smaller footprint, yet still does 17" wide.
From the picture, it didn't appear to have the big paper-handling, though
(large built-in roll feeder, and enclosed/expanding paper tray to handle
full 17x22" sheets.
Personally, one of the most attractive things about the 4800/4000 (I have
the 4000) is it's industrial-strength build, and the built-in large-scale
paper handling. Without that, it's value diminishes.
That they limit it to 80ml ink carts is a bit troubling. Perhaps size was
simply too limiting.
The 4800 & up can take either 110ml or double that...with 220ml
arts. -Huge capacity...
The ability to print on glossy paper is a plus.
We'll see...

Trying to hit a new price point to open up new markets in the face of
stronger competition from HP and Canon, I would guess. Always a place
for more choice.
