Title: 4900 suppliers or alternatives to the epson 4900
Post by: danaz on October 09, 2013, 04:01:20 pm
Hi all,

I am looking for suppliers for the epson 4900 that do not use manna distribution as the shipping option.

Anyone know any suppliers with this printer in stock. When i google i just get adorama, bhphoto and amazon. Am asking the amazon reseller if they use manna but no reply yet, both bhphoto and adorama use manna who have lost/destroyed a couple of shipments of mine already so will never use them again.

Also, having read all the problems of the 4900 - what would be a good alternative?

I have read about clogging etc. but am willing to give the 4900 a go because i live in a pretty humid area with extra humidity control in the print room and will be running 100 prints a day on it. But if it does become a hassle, what are the other models i should look at. My main requirements are max 17" printer with good auto-sheet feeding. Already own 3880's but want something faster with better sheet handling.

Thanks, Dan
