Hi Teddy,
Thanks for the response!

>the 2500CP. That was a good printer.

I agree, Printing with the 2500CP has been a good experience.

>Regarding RIP solutions, well, try PosterJet. They have a solution for the Z 
>series 
designjets. I use the RIP myself and it's really good. Simple, yet powerful. 

Can you elaborate on this. Right now I'm leaning towards the Z with the built 
in RIP which 
would be very much like my 2500CP. If you can sell me on PosterJet, please do. 
I have so 
much to do and dread having to do software updates unless they are E-Z and 
fool-proof. 
In my experience third party solutions are great but require a bit more work 
which you 
might be able to forego with a hardware solution. Of course the third parties 
usually push 
the envelope (I like that but it's cost me in time in the past and I feel like 
I have less and 
less the older I get). It might be the ticket. We are digital fine art 
creators, on the 
Macintosh, and plan to be printing photograhs, illustrations and fine art 
prints.

> The printer comes qith 12 inks and not 8 and you have to buy the rest.

I went to this site...
http://www.dtgweb.com/shop/product.php?productid=26867&cat=762&f=item

for HP Designjet Z3100 44" 12 Color Photo Printer (Q6659A) - Free Ground 
Shipping

and clicked on the tab "Item Includes" which reads as follows...

What's in the box? 

HP Designjet Z3100 24" Photo Printer <<<<<<<<<just noticed their "24" mistake 
here!
* spindle, printheads (6 x 2 colors)
* ink cartridges (8 x 130 ml) <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<8 not 12???????
* media high gloss photo sample roll (44 in x 15 ft)
* stand (44 in), rear tray (44 in)
* adapter kit (3 in) for spindle
* quick reference guide
* Setup Poster
* USB cable
* power cord

It must be an error on their part.

I've gotten a few more responses and am answering everybody. Thanks much.

So long for now, TOM
