Other printer companies hype their speed, which in an actual printing environment cannot be reproduced (it's called junk mode). Draft mode means "throw away mode." We had to throw away most of the output from Epson piezo printheads at their much touted "speed." In real life they are the slowest printers available. Yes, an Epson produces nice output at photo mode, but it's too slow for a commercial sign company or photo lab. A Roland can take up to 2 hours in its 8-color mode at 32 pass photo quality. Look instead at the impressive results from a ColorSpan wide format printer. ColorSpan is a company which grew out of LaserMaster, well known for their advanced laser printers in a previous era. ColorSpan now makes a printer that can do floor graphics, backlit signs, murals, trade show displays, point of purchase (POP) signage, as well as posters, banners, and typical wide format products. This kind of printer is especially good choice for a professional photo studio (photo lab), print shop, copy center, or advertising bureau. Just be sure that you realize you may prefer to have an extended warranty as backup security (which can cost several thousand dollars). Three years ago this was the message. The warranty is needed for as long as you own the printer, since you may need technical help and replacement of parts that don't function well. ColorSpan is a complex technical printer. But quickly we learned that most of the problems were in the years when the company was owned by Virtual Fund (venture fund companies are sometimes jokingly called the Vulture Fund). INCLUDES COLORSPAN SOFTWARE RIP SOFTWARE CD'S. AND DONGLE.
