Great New Paper - HP Everyday Photo Paper

HP's newest economical paper -- HP Everyday Pigment Ink Gloss & HP Everyday Pigment Ink Satin -- is great for photos, posters, proofing, and much more. Priced at 20 cents a square foot (24"x100' roll is $40, 36"x100' is $60), it greatly reduces the cost of using genuine HP paper. Combined with great image quality and HP's notorious manufacturing standards, this paper is hard to beat. It was designed for use on pigment Designjet printers, but we have used it in Canon and Epson pigment inkjet printers with great results as well.


HP Everyday Roll Paper Overview:
  • Great total ink absorption, producing vivid colors
  • Very quick dry time
  • Only designed for pigment inks
  • Great price and even greater value
  • Suitable for photographic use or everyday wide format printing
  • 235 g/m²



























HP Everyday Satin 24" x 100' Q8920A $39.99
HP Everyday Satin 36" x 100' Q8921A $59.99
HP Everyday Glossy 24" x 100' Q8916A $39.99
HP Everyday Glossy 36" x 100' Q8917A $59.99

Huge Sale - IPF6100 and IPF5100 ends soon

There has been a huge sale going on the Canon IPF6100 and the Canon IPF5100. If you haven't noticed, the ipf 5100 is selling for as low as ~$800 (with serial number of existing printer) with a bunch of free paper and the ipf 6100 has been selling for ~$1500. Check out IT for free freight. I doubt this will last much longer, this seems to be way below cost considering MSRP of $2800 (IPF 6100) and $2000 (IPF 5100).

As was the case with the last IPF 5000 sale, you might want to consider picking up another printer if you already own one. When you factor in the cost of ink, printheads, and spare parts, buying one might make economic sense. For example, printheads can run up to $500. Buying two would be around $1000. If you bought another unit at $800, you get two printheads and the rest of the unit is essentially free (all the ink, etc).
