Might be worth investing in the auto take up reel. Then queue the jobs up and go shopping at the mall or something.
If next time I can get a job like this,
first thing I would do is to upgrade my 9880 to 11880.
It prints wider, faster and it comes with the take up reel.
Plus the printer is actually pretty cheap right now.
9890 with K3 VM ink - $3500
9900 with HDR 11 ink - $4000
11880 with K3 VM ink 64" - $6600
Things are getting so cheap right now.
But this is the US price, I'm not sure about my local price (Hong Kong)
I hope my dealer can offer me as good as the US price tho.
