recommendation for A3 colour printer?

Community Beginner ,
Nov 02, 2021 Nov 02, 2021

Hi

 

Looking to buy a new A3 colour printer for small studio 2 people (mac compatible easy set up) - low usage, just to check magazine spreads and general graphics.

 

It wont get a lot of usage and not used for accurate proofing but need something with good type and general colour quality and not too much on consumables.

Any recommendations appreciated

Coming from a laser printer (konica minolta magicolor 7450) so not much knowledge about inkjets quality/comsumables etc

thank you

The Canon Megatank printers have ink bottles that last much longer and is less expensive than using ink cartridges:

If you do not print much, you should use a print service.

I recently switched to an Epson ET-3700 series for my office.  It's a great All-In-One, mega tank ink jet printer, scanner & copier.  

The Ink is 1/3 the cost of previous models.  When used with Premium Photo paper and High print setting, the quality is excellent -- better than my much higher priced Brother laser printer.  A+++
