The other week the steel belt snapped in half on my VJ1614. I called Fellers and Mutoh to see who they'd recommend for service work. I called that company (I won't mention their name) and they sent a guy to my place that day to "assess" the situation. I was very displeased with this person...
My opinion would be to go with the 55" laminator. Since your only printing 54" then why the need for a larger laminator? You can get a lot done with 54" material. If you upgrade down the road to larger printer then maybe you'd want to go larger with the laminator too. I have a 64" printer...
