There isn't any question I've bought the Epson factory 4 times in cost of
inks for the 2200. And no matter how incredible it makes prints, the ink
cost is a major deterrent to buy. Anytime I'm asked about it I make a very
strong point about the ink rip off.

So I figure no matter what the 4000 costs I'll pay for it in no time through
lack of ink purchases. The 2200? Well we'll see what happens over the next
few months and demand for prints.
