Comments

Large-format printer, A1+ max.

Thanks to Albert Gonzalez (albert at imego2000 dot dyndns dot org) for contrbuting this information. Here is his original report:

At first tried with "pcl3", but it didn't work ok, appearing white bands between head passes. Then, I contacted the "pcl3" developer, Martin Lottermoser, whether it could be a bug in the driver.

Of course it wasn't a bug in the driver but is a bug in the firmware.

Anyway, he suggested me to try the "chp2200" driver, which i use succesfully.

The printer works very well, at 300x300 dpi and 600x600 dpi, full colors.

If you purchase it new, (as I did) check the quality of the black printhead. Mine was faulty, and HP has sent a replacement. To a friend of mine the same happened.
