  1. Consistent quality output in a well made printer

    Posted by Jeff Cable on 15th Dec 2010

    I previously liked the 8 x 10 inch output from dye-sublimation printing machines, having become familiar with their possibilities at events when using a Kodak 8500. (I think it used a Mitsubishi printer engine) When it became obvious that I required a new printer (following an OS update for a Mac and Kodak's rather tired printer driver) I looked at Mitsubishi's range of printers and settled on the 3800 after some illuminating discussion with the staff at the well-named System Insight.

    The machine is very well constructed and is fast in use. It produces reliably consistent output for 8 x 12 inch and 8 x 10 inch prints in an end to end colour-managed workflow. The printer calibration, so that screen and printed output match each other quite closely, is a very simple process.

    The fixed costs of dye-sublimation ribbon and paper keeps output costs under control. The sealed paper path and roll-fed media keep the print operation dust-free (not so easy to do with the sheet-fed Kodak 8500) so that every print is pristine and dust spot free.

    Some people may feel that a paper catching system would be a welcome addition. I don't think it is absolutely necessary because the prints are ejected, after printing and cutting, with some speed but it is never too fast to predict and catch the print as it exits the machine nor does it stop the machine from spitting the prints onto the working surface upon which the printer is stood. I prefer to have the neat, uncluttered lines and small outline and footprint of the printer without there being any additional stuff to carry.

    All of my clients are very satisfied when they see the excellent print quality and the clear-coated surface of the print just shrugs off fingerprints. As a Mac user, I would like to see some additional developments in the print driver supplied by Mitsubishi... specifically related to size and layout options on a single 12 x 8 piece of the supplied media.

    It is difficult to find any faults with this printer and I can strongly recommend the CP3800DW to any professional photographer who needs to produce consistent quality 8 x 10 or 8 x 12 inch output for a fixed and known cost. I have watched many of my colleagues struggling to get decent output with inkjet printers and various paper and ink combinations.

    All I need now is a dye-sublimation printer which can cope with A2 sized media. :o) (are you listening Mitsubishi?)

  2. Awesome is the only way to descibe this printer!

    Posted by Stephen Clements on 28th Feb 2008

    When you read the specs for a printer it sounds impressive. When you actually see the printer do its stuff, then it’s awesome. The speed and quality need to be seen to be believed. What’s more, the printer couldn’t be easier to setup and use… and all this in a fairly compact and portable package.



    My only quibble is with the supplied drivers - they don’t run on Window’s Vista, hopefully this will be addressed soon.



    My thanks to Stuart and the team at System Insight for such quick delivery of this little bundle of joy!

  3. WOW factor and Happy Customers !!!!!!!

    Posted by Jenkins Photography on 21st Feb 2008

    We at www.jenkins-photography.co.uk managed to get the

    CP3800 back in December from Stuart at System Insight.

    We were originally going to buy a second CP9550-DWS from

    System Insight to match my current set-up. However after

    speaking to Stuart and explaining what we were trying to achieve

    with the second printer he mention that they had a the new

    CP3800 and explained its capabilities we decided that this

    would give us even more opportunities so we ordered one.



    From the moment it comes out of the box you can tell that you

    have bought a quality printer.



    It produces outstanding prints very quickly, the only problem

    been the speed that are ejected from the printer (we are sure

    system insight will have a tray to catch them in on the

    drawing board soon).



    if you want the "wow factor!" and see the stunned looks on your

    customers faces when they get there high quality images very

    quickly, then we recommend you get the CP3800



    Thanks to Stuart and Mike once again for your excellent service

    and back up that can always be counted on.

  4. Wow!

    Posted by R. Jell - Photographer on 29th Nov 2007

    I was originally going to buy a Kodak 9810 from a competitor of System Insight. Fortunately for me their sales service was so poor I cancelled and gave System Insight a call, they recommended the CP3800.

    There was lots to favor it, cheaper by a few hundred pounds, forty pence a 10x8 print cheaper and it is loses quite a few pounds in weight over the Kodak. The CP3800 is no light weight or cheaply made contender, it produces beautifully saturated and natural looking prints. Even at 300dpi the prints are crisp, people that have viewed them have invariably have remarked "wow!"

    The build quality is very good, it is amazingly small and compact. It knocks out prints so quick you have to be on your guard, there is no paper tray and it literally fires the prints out. For the time being there are no drivers for vista or 64 bit XP, a bit of a pain for me but I can forgive that on the merit of the prints, I am a very happy man!

    I can,t say more than System Insight have described in in there preview, this machine is an eventers dream and I think any photographer would be more than happy to own one of these beaut's!

    Thank you System Insight, your sales and aftercare are fisrt rate, a pleasure to do business with.
