Dose your office own the plotter or do they lease it?

AT,
We purchased a HP Design Jet 1050c from Repro Graphics, in Burlington, VT. The have an awesome service department. That is the key, make sure whoever you get the plotter from, that they have a outstanding service department. We love our plotter. It uses a 36" wide roll feed, but you can insert single sheets without unloading the roll.

We don't use a plotter any more. We use the HP DesignJet 5500 driver to create PDFs, and email them to a local Repro firm, which delivers back sets quite efficiently. For in house review we batch plot 11x17's. Luckly we don't work for clients so deadlines don't pressure us too much. So after 5:00p sets are not an issue for us.

The first plotter ever made I think.
