Background
The space currently has a large format printer, however it is mostly unusable due to lack of support and being ancient. The space would benefit greatly having this printer updated.
The HP Designjet T520 is a great entry level large format printer with reasonable operating costs, designed for the SME/student/contractor market and costs around $1700. It can handle 24" media both on rolls and in sheet form. A 32" version is also available for around $2500.
Ink and media should be charged by the sq. ft.
Operating costs
Off brand ink can be had for ~$35 for a set of 4 cartridges.
Language
Authorize the BoD to spend up to $2000 to purchase a replacement large format printer a spare sets of cartridges and some rolls of paper.
