Need loads of advice :)

Best wide format inkjet/vinyl device I have ever used!

Based on my research I have identified 2 devices which I feel suit our needs. They are:

1) CANON imagePROGRAF iPF8100 (for the wide-format)

2) KYOCERA MITA FS-C8100DN (for the high volume)

I would appreciate it if you guys could lend your expertise and give me your thoughts on my choice of printers and enlighten me to any mistakes I might have made in my research and decision making!

I am also curious what you think we would need in terms of accessories to cover most common printing jobs. Any extras for the printers? Document finishers? Paper types? Cutters? What would you suggest for someone trying to start out?

Any advice would be massively helpful to us and much appreciated!

Thanks for your time

I started my all digital shop 4 years ago with the following equipment:

- Xante Ilumina (but I had no volume)
- 44" Canon ImagePrograf w8400 (the predecessor of the ipf series)
- 18.75" Triumph MANUAL cutter (still using it. great for the biceps)
- Martin Yale perf/score machine
- Duplo DF-915 automatic folder
- 55" Daige Quickmount III- you'll NEED this with an aqueous printer if you'll be doing any long term outdoor stuff. Plus, you can mount your prints on anything.
