I imagine the 1400 will remain compatible / supported for a longer time. One concern for me is that I use OS X.6 and there have been serious issues with the 2200, though they seem to be imperfectly resolved with the latest print driver. I think an upper-midrange (at the time) 2x00 series printer must have benefits over a lower-midrange (today) 1x00 series in build quality etc. Which would you choose, between a used 2200 vs new 1400? Since I am new to photo printers and haven't followed their evolution over the past decade I'd like to hear your opinions. From what I understand it is faster and uses ink more efficiently than the older technology of the 2200 (please correct me if wrong). I checked the specs of Epson's current lineup, and it seems the Epson Stylus Photo 1400 is $199 new from Amazon and prints at the same size (13x19). I think that's a little high considering the printer's age and competition with today's models. The price offered to me was $200 for the printer including an extra set of inks and a custom icc profile. After reading about Epson and Mac OS X.6 I began to get cold feet about buying a used Epson 2200 I was considering, which was first released 8 years ago.
