I am considering purchasing a large format printer. What do you recommend and what type of ink system? What software?

Thanks in advance.

I love my Roland...I've had my versacamm for 8.5 years...no trouble. Nothing but good things to say about it. I use CorelDraw but I think either that or Adobe Illustrator works fine. The print and cut is spot on.

Roland VersCamm and Corel here....all the way. The VersaCamm has been a real work horse and ours is running everyday. And whatever we design in CorelDraw comes out great.

had an HP9000s for 5 years and was very happy with it but a number of rhe printheads were beginning to fail and were very expensive. Traded it in on a latex HP5 L26500 and have been quite happy with it. I got this last November and I'm still on the first inkset which blows me away. Great color gamut and print quality.

I'm also quite happy with Caldera rip. I bought a Mac mini and connected via screen sharing to my main Mac Pro display so I have no big extra workstation in the way. Just a box the size of a CD burner.

Caldera is a great RIP. The HP 26500 is an awesome printer... Great combo.
