I am considering purchasing a wide format printer to print and sell graphic posters. I was set on the Epson Pro 7900, but am reading so many negative reviews about clogged print heads that I'm now reconsidering.
My intent is to print 24" x 36" posters on quality matte paper. No photographs, my designs are vector based graphic designs and include large areas of solid color. Quantity is unknown as this is a new venture, but for a baseline let's say 100 posters/month.
I know there any many, many factors why a buyer would choose one printer over another (price, quality, cost per page, speed, maintenance, etc.) But based on your personal experience and knowledge, what would you choose if you were purchasing a wide format printer for $4,000-ish or under? Obviously no right or wrong, I'm just looking for advice from those who have been down this road.
Thanks in advance for your help, it is truly appreciated!
