A friend of mine was told by a dealer that Epson are pulling out of the
printer market. I was under the impression that this is where Epson built its
reputation. I would be most suprised if it is true. Can anyone verify this
bizarre notion.

She was enquiring about an Epson GQ3500 (the Ricoh engined laser from Epson).
I am wondering if Epson may be trying to just pull out of that market.

Either that or this dealer is trying to get my friend to buy a more expensive
printer.
