I need to get a GOOD inkjet/laser/thermal printer that will preferably do 11x17 (or 13x19) prints, for under 300 bucks, new or used.

Got to find one today or tomorrow, retail or online doesn't matter.

What does matter is it has to have GOOD color matching, use at least a 4 color system with independent cartridges (6 preferred), and be able to stand up to decent volume (100-500 pages in a day)

Also major points if I can fit a continuous ink system to it.

I really doubt you're going to find that, new anyway, for under 300.

The HP Business Inkjet 2800 Printer is $500. There just aren't many wide format printers in the el cheapo range. Production quality printers all seem to start at $1000.

yea wide-format is more of a luxury than a requirement at this point.

If it was a choice between a 250 dollar 8.5x11 or a 350 dollar wide format, id rather bite the bullet and spend the extra cash
