    Anyone have any recommendations on a large format printer suitable for a low volume application? Mainly D size sheets.
    Small contractor's office dealing with civil engineering plans for bidding and job purposes. We are getting more plans by download and CD and the printing costs are starting to get out of hand.
    I have been looking at some HP's -

    Any opinions on these models or other similar printers?
    TIA

    Use HP not Epson for low volume, if you are going for an inkjet. Don't know the latest model references but the last ones I used were fine.

    Don't forget that injet printing fades especially in the sun. So go for lots of revision issues quick contracts or the ink will fade before the building is done.

    :D

    Thanks studiot.
    Most of the plans will be short term use in bidding.;)
    If we get the project, then copies will be made for actual job records.
