Fair enough. As far as I'm aware the 7800s use different inks. They include an extra Black, so that mono jobs are run entirely on 3 shades of black, no CMY. Supposedly got rid of the reflective sheen you see under some lighting, too. But you can't "fudge" by using 9800 cartridges in it, like you could with the 9600/7600. Epson got wise to that little lurk, obviously.
A very low mileage 7600 has come up here for us for about $1800[AU]. think it would be worth getting. If your powers-that-be are willing to fork out for a 7800, go for it. We're looking at more mileage out of the 7600, but it's been a great workhorse.
