Cost and Size are an issue, but operating expenses are lower on the 4800 and up, unless you plan on swapping matte and photo black inks on a regular basis. The up-front ink cost is big, but the 110ml and 220ml carts are far less expensive per ml than the small 10-20ml carts in the 2400. If you print seriously. the ink cost alone may justify the price difference between the R2400 and the 4800.
Epson recommend using the carts within 6 months of opening so you'd still need to do a lot of printing.
One of the staff at the camera shop told me about a pro photographer who came in one day and picked up 6 full sets of Epson 2100 cartridges... I thought I was bad just having one full set of spares!
