Alex,

I’ve been using an HP 750C “large format printer” for years.  It’s built like a truck, and has held up well after literally thousands of “large format prints”.

 

I have a suggestion, if you’re operating on a limited budget.  There’s a company here (in Birmingham, Alabama) that refurbishes and re-sells HP “large format printers”.    Their website is:  http://www.dasher.com/  You can buy HP large format stuff from them considerably cheaper than buying it new.  I bought my 750C from them, and have only had to bring it back once for routine maintenance.

 

Good luck.

 

Mike Jenne

Subject: [MI-L] Good/Bad Printers?

 

Hi People,

I am working on a GIS implementation project in Samoa. Due to the remoteness of being stuck on a Pacific Island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, all our equipment has to be imported from Australia, NZ or America. Unfortunately this means it is hard to select items without inspecting them first and with limited advise/support.

 

MapInfo won’t endorse a brand, so I was wondering if people have suggestions or comments on good Large Format Printers (we aren’t allowed to call them Plotters anymore!), which are compatible with MapInfo. At the moment we are looking at HP DesignJet 110/500/800 series, depending how much we can justify to spend.

 

Regards,

 

Alex Webster

(Apia, Samoa)
