Re: [Digital BW] HP Designjet 130 Wide Format?

Thanks Allan,
I'm trying to decide what WF printer to get (in a couple of months)

and that 24" is pretty compelling.

Thanks again

Jules

if you like glossy prints, the color gamut of this printer is 
reported to be exceptional, and that some photographers swear by it.
