I have both printers and without a doubt the 4000 feeds better. I have
used mine to build media sample books and registration is great on the
1000's of sheets on 40+ stocks that I have run through it... Especially
on the 13x19 and 17x22 sheets. I can honestly attribute the great
registration to the fact that the 4000 has an adjustable paper tray
that helps prevent skewed feeds. This is unlike the Canon 2200 that
only holds certain sizes.
Now the Epson 2200 has a better feed system then lets say the Canon
I9900.
Quality on the Epson 4000 and Epson 2200 is about the same...Speed is
another issue.
I am also not out to bash Canon as they seem to be the faster breed.
Thanks,
Troy

I have three questions:
1. Does the Epson 4000 handle heavier & toothy papers better than the
Epson 2200?
2. How about the sheet to sheet registration? Is that better?
3. I've also heard that the Epson 4000 has a much improved print
head. Is this is true in what way?
I ask because I want to get another UltraChrome printer. I've been
somewhat disappointed with the 2200's feed system.

Gary,
I never had a 2200. Some of my clients do. I personally used to have a
3000.
I recently upgraded to a 4000 and I don't regret it one bit -- so far.
The
print is very sharp and I have a feeling, from listening to the print
head
moving across the sheet, that it's almost as though I had a 7600 or a
9600
in a smaller chassis. It's been a solid performer so far.
