While I have nothing bad to say about Canon printers, since I have no recent
experience with them, you might want to take a look at the Epson Stylus
Color 1520. I'm getting ready to purchase one myself. It not only handles
paper up to 17" x 22", it has an optional banner paper tractor. It lists
for $699.99, but street prices are around $400.00 to $500.00. I have not
used the 1520, but we use Epson Stylus printers extensively in my
organization and they are virtually trouble-free (except for operator
error), very fast and have great output.

Slightly off subject, but...
I'm seriously considering purchasing a Cannon BJC 5100 inkjet printer for
its 11" X 17" paper capability. Has anyone used one of these with TMG?
Or with the general reliability of the machine? We had what must have been
the earliest version of this several years ago at my former office (it was
the first inkjet printer on the market that could handle both color and 11 X
17 paper and cost less than $500), and it never gave a moment's trouble. My
husband, by contrast, had nothing but grief with several Cannon printers at
his former job, and is reluctant to admit one to the house.
Any comments will be appreciated. Thanks.
