How far has Inkjet improved imaging mechanics that improve accuracy?

What are the very best accuracy and repeatability specs you have ever seen for an inkjet machine that can make film positives? Real-world tests?

I need film positives that are +-.002" to true size, and repeatable, over approx 30"x41.5" area.

In past years, the ability of even the best inkjet mechanics could not even approach the accuracy we need. But, I haven't investigated in a few years. Has anyone seen or carefully tested the current or recent crops of highest-end inkjet machines? How about the ones specifically marketed for engineering/architecture: would the needs of those markets require a high accuracy inkjet?

With thanks,
Duane
