Best Plotter to make signs

[Treppiede]

Hi everybody,
I would like to buy a Plotter to be able to cut stickers out for the vehicles of my DSM car club... I need a Plotter for "home use" if I could say that, nothing industrial, I won't be making many signs and banners... I already saw a couple of brands around, but I have no idea which one I should get. Does anybody have experience in this field? Which brand will be the best for my use? A brand that can sell me the knives when they wear out without issues, that makes small good quality plotters.

thnx in advance

I've only had experience with HP plotters (Designjet 600, 650, 800, and 1055CM), we've had no problems with them. HP does stock components for their older plotters/printers, and you can also get warranty upgrades etc. I think that the quality of their lower end large format plotters is pretty basic though(about 300 DPI in colour), so I don't know if they'll suit what you want to do. I guess it depends on how much detail you want in those stickers.
