Title: New Printer for 36 x 48 prints with Mac Studio and Studio Display
Post by: Chris L on January 11, 2023, 08:05:04 pm
Hi I am using a new Mac Studio and Studio display and wish to make 36 x 48 inkjet matte surface prints on epson velvet fine art paper or similar Paper. Are there any great printer deals out there right now that you can point me to? I see the Epson Sure Color 5475 at BH Photo for $2400. Any reco's on this printer? Or any other similar priced or cheaper? Thanks in Advance.

Do you mean this one?

It's not a photographic printer.  It only has 4 colours and is used for graphic art.

You want something like the P8000 or P9000, but read up on threads in this forum, especially if you start looking at the P9570 (which seems to have a lot of problems)

We have 2 Epson P8000's and love them. A whole lot cheaper then the 9570's too.
Would love to sell you our HPz3200 (Only used as a backupK).

thanks, the epson P8000 has very mixed reviews but seems like a good contender. Your HP is not wide enough for me thanks.

Just like the Canon P8000 there is a 24" and 44" version of HP Z3200 as well.

My HP z3200 is 44" with built in spectrophotometer.
