What do you currently use the 9880 for? It's a fair bit of kit just to dip your toe in the water with sublimation. Not easy/cheap to change inks back and for either.

I use the 9800 for printing on canvas as well as large and small format photographic imagery and Giclée reproductions. I know that sublimation can do all these things but I would be unsure of the best substrates to use for the best results.

If your wideformat printer is bringing you in sales and profit then I wouldn't consider changing that to sublimation. Look for a cheap new one or even second hand that would be suitable to test how sublimation would work for you.

Thanks Andrew, that was a concern I had, and I thought it probably best to look at a A4 sub printer to begin with.
Cheers
