I too noticed very minimal differences.  It probably allows for more 
forgiving prints if you have a slightly clogged nozzle, and helps to 
prevent banding more.  Overall it just seemed like me as a way to slow 
down the printers, with minimal return.

This is more specsmanship to be "bigger" than the competitors then about 
improved image. Since current stepper motors continue to get cheaper and 
finer, its a no cost option for Epson, IMHO.
