Larry, I guess it all depends on what you plan to do. I've seen RGB photos cause a nightmare for CMYK large format printers, which most large format printers are. I've seen the large format Canon's that are RGB, and they are spectacular, I agree. However, they can have serious problems if someone provides a CMYK file, like from Illustrator. I've had my rounds with color and printing (having stuff printed for us). It cost me some money. We did an entire building, several hundred signs, all modular signs with paper style inserts, printed the colors the company asked for (and they checked the colors upon installation). Got a call about 4 weeks later to change some names and more some things around, which all required printing. Had the same printer print the files, went to install then. Completely different tone. Off by a couple of shades. No way to put them next to the one's that were printed in the last batch.
I ended up having to reprint a lot of them just so I could keep one's in the same areas all looking exactly the same. I even had them retain color samples of the originals so they could match it. Turns out, they switched brands of paper from one order to the next, so the new paper took the ink differently, which caused the colors to be off slightly.
Nightmare.
Now, if I were just printing photographs from PS to a RGB printer, I'd be right there with you! The more I get into the color world and printing, the more I don't want to get into the color world and printing. One guy I deal with a lot that's a printer told me that for every point in humidity, the color would change. So you could be printing in 40% humidity levels in the morning, have a storm move in, go up to 80% humidity and your color would now be different.
I've got enough problems without the weather getting involved
I also have a Ricoh dye sub printer. I like it a lot.
