Large Prints
I just saw you will be doing large prints! That's great but you need to go bigger than 12" x 17"! 16x20 would be the min and 24x30 would be much, much better! Canon
still has the deal on the 17" printer for around $1300 which is much faster than Epson or HP (1.5 min 8x10 @ 2400 dpi or 1 min 8x10 @1200 dpi. Lots of folks have A3 printers! Canon is also coming out with a 24" printer later this month! I would order those
form you!

Re: Large Prints
If you are getting a photo printer, like a Fuji Frontier, you will have lots of expensive maintenance. If you don't meet certain print min's the printer will become expensive to operate.
Professional inkjets have a wider color gamut than say a Fuji Frontier would have with much less hasstle to keep it up and running.
Epson is the king of photo printers, but IMHO they have some real drawbacks when it comes to professional workflow. They are very slow printers and since they use the same head to print matte black and photo black, it takes 30 minutes to flush out all the old ink before you can start with the new.
The new HP's are quite expensive, no faster than the Epson's and cost more per print.
Finally, the Canon's are over twice as fast as Epson's and their pigmented inks last a long long time. They are also cheaper to operate as their 12 inks require less mixing than the Epson to get an equal or better color gamut.
All 3 printers (HP, Epson & Canon) will make outstanding B&W prints. The ability to print on fine art paper I beleive makes the Canon the best of the bunch. I was hoping to get the Canon 24" printer but it was delayed in coming out. They have an excellect 17" and 44" versions out now with some great rebates. Unfortunately for me, I don't have anywhere to put a 44" printer!!!
As a professional photographer though, I would love the ability to offer large quality prints for my customers without having to charge an arm and a leg to get them! And if I didn't have to purchase such an expensive printer, I could invest more into photo equipment and things that would make me a better photographer!
