Reasonably priced printers?

[Tin Can]

Looks very reasonable to me.

I will try them.

Thanks!

since wci told me I wasn't good enough for their business, I've been using aspencreekphoto (owned by wci and probably under the same roof) and have been very happy with the results. Upload tiffs via ftp and their hokey software. $45 for a 30x40. and shipping is very reasonable. I've never had an issue with any aspect of their work as apposed to many issues in the past with Calypso Imaging (RIP) and some issues with scratched prints at WCI.

Thanks everyone. If Costco is that cheap I might as well try them. These are to hang around the house, and I'll probably be swapping new ones frequently.

As a follow up for anyone living near San Francisco, Rayko Photo Center rents their large format Epsons (11880 or 7890, they also have 3880s). $11 an hour plus ink ($5 a square foot if you bring your own paper). Best deal going by far. http://raykophotocenter.com/digital-lab-rentals/

I have a HP T1300 here at work. I use it for cartographic purposes. But I do not use it frequently. Ink cartridges dry up and print heads clog up. They must be exercised frequently to keep them fluid. Yes, the ink, print heads, and paper are expensive. I would like to keep it working but there is a conflict of interest there. There is a local shop that has the ability to print these. I will have to check their prices.

I own two HP Z3100 printers and use them for my own fine art prints. There are times they sit idle for over a month. Never had clogging problems, don't do any test prints anymore as they always come out good. I heard horror stories with other make of printers if not used on a very regular basis.
