I'm looking to move up from my current A4 printer to one that will give me A3.
There seem to be quite a range on the market between £300 - £600 which is where I'll set my budget ( unless there are compelling arguments to spend more - just don't tell the wife !! )
Main use will be to print for club competitions plus a few to hang on the wall at home & some for family and friends - for me photography is a hobby and I'm not looking to earn any £££'s from it.
Running costs are a consideration - certainly the inks in my A4 printer seem to empty quite quickly. Are the ink reservoirs in A3 units larger, or should I consider purchasing a model that with work with a CISS ?
I'd really appreciate any thoughts and recommendations before purchasing a unit. As an add to, I'd could give consideration to a seconhand unit but are there pitfalls I should watch out for ?
I know that getting prints done commercially is also a consideration, but would require me to plan well ahead - and its rare that I'm that well organised !!!
Thanks
