I think this printer is so under rated.
If you use a RIP with it, it makes amazing prints. Yes out of the box it has its color issues, once adding a RIP, it is just fantastic. (I have gotten very close with custom profiles also, but not good enough for contract proofing). It would be just fine for 95% of users with custom profiles. I had a hard tme with it at first, as I was looking for absolute neutral and I ended up getting the RIP and acheive that now.
One of the main reasons this printer was skipped and left to the side in marketing... at the time it was the archival race, and the 85 years was beat by Epsons 100 years, and it was also at the intro point of UV inks.
There are select few papers you can use with it, and they are beautiful papers (Premium Photo Satin, Proof Gloss are my favorite). I know there is a canvas that can also be used(I have not tried).
This printer prints the richest blacks that I have seen. I have worked with Epson 4800, 7600, and I chose this for the mechanical build and print results over the others(RIP in use). I would likely go with another HP, as I find the build, and the printhead, the "no nonsense" way it handles itself, much less a headache over the Epson.
I have trashed 2 Epsons for head issues. I love the Epson output charactor very much. But I dont like the ink waste, and the hand holding it often needs. (multiple head cleanings). The 130 is been in use for 2 years. I have changed the print heads once, the inks more, as I have over 2300 prints total. I have needed a head cleaning ONE time. The ink usage on this printer is very smart, and has very little waste running it. most my prints are heavy black, and 70-90% coverage on the paper.
