Hey Ernst. I think it's kinda important not to place too much weight
in the LL forums where there seems to be a whole bunch of brand
aligned hobbyists with too much time on their hands and not enough
experience over a wide range of devices. Better to look at a wider
pool of professionals in demanding environments, IMO.
I also think it's important to not rule out any brand, nor promote a
brand exclusively, as each clearly has advantages and disadvantages.
A person's usage and needs will determine which printer is best for
them, and it could be any of the options on the table.

I liked your summary and I think what I added was not biased and also in
line
with Roger's demands. His environment is not demanding high production
and needs more sheet based than roll based media handling. I gave pros
and cons on the three brand models. My Z's tell me what is wrong about
them and what is good and that was in my comment. There is a friend's
3880 in a low volume environment that is running good and I know some
amateurs with 3800-3880s. There are two iPF5100s, an iPF9000, an Epson
11880 and an iPF8300 in a high volume shop where I get an almost weekly
update of what runs and what shows problems.
I am following several lists. True, they tend to gather the problems. It
is interesting then to see so little issues with the 3800 and 3880
compared to the x900 models. The people that tell us the 99% of the x900
do their job without issues but the 1% get to the lists should explain
to me where the 3800 and 3880 owners are that have troubles. I do not
think the number of 3800/3880 shipped is that low, there are not more
than five 17" printer models (from different brands) in the market since
2006, 3 still available and it has always been a popular size since the
Epson 1500 and 3000.
