Our graphics designer is using a PowerMac G4 running OSX 10.2.8.

She needs a postscript compable inkjet printer. I have been looking at the HP cp1700ps printer.

Any comments on this printer or suggestions on other printers? Thank you for any help.
 
We have an HP DJ1220C/PS here.

Its very good for fairly lightweight work (10 or so pages at a time), but when we start trying to print 70 or 80 pages at a time it becomes a little unreliable (stops picking up paper etc). But then I dont think it was ever designed for that sort of thing... :)

We've also had problems with the rollers getting dirty/inky which is a pain in the bum. They arent exactly easy to clean either.

Whether or not these things have been fixed in later models I'm not sure.

Its A3 capability is a highly useful feature.

I've never tried it on photo quality paper so I can't really comment on its capability there.
