What is the cost to contract a printer from Pacific Automation? I think that’s the right group?

Hi Heather,
I chatted with the folks at Precision Images today about cost options for the plotter. The model that they recommend is a Canon and it does scan/copy/print up to 36”. Same as what we have now + Copy. My inclination after looking at this is to finish the repairs on “Ol’ Gertie” and ride it until it needs anything beyond basic maintenance (ink/printheads). In that time prepare to buy new. Hard to say what its time limit will be though.
Best,
Dan Z
