Looking for color laser printer to do 11x17 drawings - any suggestions?

spaulus — Sun, 07 May 2023 01:57:58 GMT

I do not now where to post this question.

I have a Epson InkJet printer that does 11x17 but if it sits for a little while with no use the print nozzles clog and no number nozzle cleaning reps seem to work.

I have a Brother color laser that does 8 1/2x11 and 8 1/2x14. I reached out to Brother to see if they make a 11x17 and they do not.

Looking for suggestions.

Thank you in advance.

I have an Epson WF 7510 which works good. You didn't list your model. Check the setup menu for a head cleaning option. Use it regularly to keep the pring heads working good.

I currently have the Epson WF 7720, it worked great for the first year or 2 that I used it regularly but now I have replaced the cartridges, I have done the head cleaning option several times and it is ink jet technologies...i am looking for a color laser that does 11x17.

understood. a new print head is $ 30 -40 USD. youtube has instructions. may be a good fix unitl you find a laser machine.

a HP such as this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JUCLLGK?tag=rtings-pt-r-amazon-20&ie=UTF8. might do the job?

I didn't see anywhere that states the Brother HL-L8360CDW does 11x17.

I have a Brother color laser printer that does 8 1/2x11 and 8 1/2x14, I love this printer and would love to have an 11x17 model.

Considering your requirements for a color laser printer capable of handling 11x17 drawings, you might want to explore the HP Color LaserJet Pro M454dw or the Canon Color imageCLASS MF743Cdw. Both models support larger paper sizes and offer reliable performance. Since you're experiencing nozzle clogging issues with your Epson InkJet, transitioning to a laser printer could provide more consistent printing, especially if the printer isn't used frequently. You can also check printer reviews and APK websites for user feedback on printer performance and compatibility with various paper sizes.

Thank you for your feedback. A friend of mine bought a HP OfficeJet Pro 7740, it seems to do ok when it wants to work.

I am using it with my personal computer and my work computer and most of the time it appears offline when I try and print from work computer...not sure it isn't all the security the work computer has.
