We are researching a new large format printer for the wifes crafting (scrapbooking, cross stitch etc.).
In the process we can across the HP cp1700, a 13"x19" unit that has a built in CPU and RAM, which means it can use one of those small printserver boxes like the SOHOware Plug-n-Print or the HP 170 box.
It also has print heads with their own mini-tanks that reload from much larger main tanks. Each color has its own set. 2400x1200 resolution. 16 ppm in black and 14 ppm in color.
$422 is the best online price we've seen. CompUSA is selling it at $499.
For about $130 more you can add a "duplex" module that lets it print both sides automatically.
BIG sonofabitch though.
Anyone had any experience with this monster?
