Absolutely. And I'm very satisfied with it. I've had some great looking prints. I have two of each colour of high capacity cartridge to get through, and then I'll decide whether to try the Aliexpress inks.
I've been happily printing with my SC-T2100, which is great for art prints sized A4 to A1 on matte paper. However, it's very expensive on ink, you can't print on media smaller than A4, and most photo prints on glossy or semi-gloss media are only average. So to plug the gap in the T2100...
I don't know about the export / import implications, but the printer is available from plot-it.co.uk, where I bought my T2100, for £1872 inc VAT. It might be worth calling them if you've got a long wait on your hands anyway. I've had no issues purchasing from the continent, although not goods of...

You mentioned before that the chips get registered to stop them being reused.. do you know if...
Well the printer came and first impressions are good. I think it's a whole lot of kit for £550! Ordered a replacement maintenance box straight away, it was about the same price on Amazon as on AliExpress. As you warned, it was nearly full after installing the cartridges.
Apart from that, the...
Good advice, thanks. I'll give it a shot. I'm on the lookout for a used colormunki photo or something similar so I can produce profiles for all the ink / paper combos that I need. And I'll definitely pick up a few maintenance cartridges.
Mr Fingers - just to say I really appreciate the time you've taken to write up your experiences. It's been most useful to read. I've just ordered a T2100 and I hope you don't mind if I ask you one or two questions? I plan to use it to print various illustrations I've chosen as I have too many...
