  3. Best printer for murals

    I have a colorado 1650 and a colex. That whole setup would be around 300k depending on the fotoba cutter used. The newest fotoba cutter is 150k alone for wallpaper panels 1 flatbed cutter could keep up with 3 Colorado printers I think. 1hr to print a roll while cutting a roll takes 20min.

  18. How long did your Colorado printhead last

    I'm curious what signs do you see that suggest a head is going bad or needs replacement soon? Is it canon running a diagnostic on the head? The printhead cost per sq/ft seems to be around $.03 so at 250sq ft you would've used up $8250 of printheads which goes right along with a couple heads...
