Epson, Canon, HP... A "few"
Despite not being a native of the US I am taking the fifth... Suffice to say that my wife doesn't ask if there are more than 30 printers in the workshop anymore...

I did have two R2400 sold both of them to a customer of mine with refillable cartriges, and lots of ink: He is leading a photographic course for about 20 participants and he offers print service at cost for all members

He is quite happy with the R2400 never had problems with both of them. He print on expensive hahnemhle papers, cheap Sihl/ALDI papers and some other papers from "Rauch Papiere" www.rauch-papiere.de

Had one R340 it was broken, some eletronic problems with the mainboard or/and the AC/DC converter board, it smelled like a ashtray and it innerguts look like the previous owner did reset the waste ink three times without doing anything else.

The R380 does look like the german RX585 that thing i already have :)

cheers...

EDIT: sold a Epson 2100 yesterday with the roll feders and paper support but without the auto cut. Cleaning took about 2 weeks each night like 15min opertion, nozzles all clean, no smudges when transporting a clean sheet of paper. Internal waste was as dry as it possible could be but the counter was allready on 60% so I just resetet that thing. Sold without refillable cartriges since the buyer wanted this thing as spare and replacement for his expensive "Fast T-Jet" garment printer. He told me he bought a "refurbished" printhead for 500 USD before.

He is printing up to 300 Shirts EVERY Week, with this high volume he could even afford an rather professional machine but he insits and want to keep his old rag.

I am trying to get rid of the 2100, I dont use them, they are big as hell and rather slow, print quality is not the best, my Epson 1400 with pigmented inks outperforms the 2100
