The 1400 out of the box uses dye-based inks, but if you're buying a bulk ink system with pigment inks as I was considering, then you should be fine.
I like that this printer prints up to 13x19, so printing 11x17 transfers is a snap and you're not limited to 8.5x11 like you are with the C88+.
You could also get an R1800, which uses pigment inks out of the box. But that printer is a big more expensive.
I'd go for the larger printers if you can afford it.
