Large format printer for Sketchup
-
Anyone have recommendations for a 24 or 36 inch printer for a small business. Speed and large quantities will not be a factor.

I've had HP plotters (DJ 330 and 450C), and Canon Plotters (iPF 755 and iPF785), and have used HP 1055's when I worked for other architects. I love my iPF785 - ink lasts quite a long time and seems to be a little less per ounce than the HP's, and is reasonably fast for a one-person office. Epson plotters seem to have good specs but have not seen one in action or known anyone with one yet. Check prices online - I found my first iPF755 for $1,800 basically brand new on eBay (an architect going through a divorce who had to unload the plotter he'd only had a month for CHEAP and right away). I traded it in after a couple of years on a new iPF785 that included a 36" color scanner - one of the best purchases I ever made.

Also using the Canon iPF 785 here, scanner upgrade should get installed this week. Happy enough with it...
