Hi Carlos,

I work for the State of Wyoming and the last two agencies that I worked for I actually took care of the plotters. Both agencies had HP DesignJets I think they were both 5000ps or maybe 5500ps they were both reliable and I never really had much problem with them. They were not that heavily used so we didn't go through a lot of supplies but even after several months of inactivity they would print fine. Meaning that the ink didn't dry out quickly. Amazing picture quality especially if you get the photographic quality paper. You could even load precut paper to the printer.

I hope that helps.
Doug
