Bring your own image to print, and a sample of the material you'll primarily be printing on. You'll be able to see the results firsthand and make a decision from there.

that's a lot lower price than I generally see them. If nothing else, you can turn it around and make some money on it.

What are you planning on printing with it?? Inside sales posters?

I was thinking the same thing.  The HP printers are not well recognized for their graphics printing like Epson.  You see the HP's more in office environments.  I used to have one for printing from AutoCAD.  I did a few posters for the business and they turned out OK, but nothing like what a high end Epson turns out.

It would be great for indoor printing - we used to use an old 750C for some indoor graphics at the GIS shop
