which laser/deskjet printers best for autocad

[Hector Vega]

Hi, I have a HP 5000 (b&w Laser 11X17) It works very good, also I have a
HP 1220C, it works good, is slow compared to a laser, but faster than
other deskjet printers, I also has been working with a 2500C is faster
than the 1120c in high quality resolution, but even in normal resolution
both print very good.

Sorry, I have no idea about prices

I've been using a HP 4v Laserjet Printer for my B sized check plots. Works
great!

One of my clients has an HP 1120c printer that I use for check plotting. On
its quickest print cycle the output has much to be desired. At best quality,
the output is much cleaner, but at the cost of very long plot times.

I would personally stay away from any type of jet ink printing scheme in favor
of laser print technology. Much faster and for CAD work that requires line
accuracy, a much neater output.

Other than THAT Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?
