Our colour (color) printer is slowly dying. Can anyone recommend a mid-range printer for printing basic maps, i.e. not to a competitive standard? Our main requirement is to print onto waterproof paper without smudging.
A3 or A4, laser or inkjet?
Epson Workforce 1100. Around $100, prints up to 13x19", good resolution, excellent color, dye-based ink.
The WorkForce is great if you don't have many participants (an ink guzzler), and don't have many participants (3 min/print at acceptable resolution). The $100 cost is a teaser; with reasonable ink coverage, prints will cost about $1.50 per A3, not including paper cost.
