    I use it a lot for construction. Printed job specs are much easier / faster to deal with than a computer on a job site. You can staple them to a wall, quickly draw on them, use them when your hands are filthy, have multiple large copies floating around, etc. Paper is usually just a better solution for that environment.

      That’s an environment I hadn’t really thought about. I concede the point.

      Take a look at a Canon PIXMA TR150.

      There are plenty of other brands that make this same style, this was just the first I found.

      Now if only they had a small portable printer like that that did 11x17

      Reading blueprints off 8x11 is damn near impossible unless you blow them up

        That’s kind of cool. Unfortunately, it’s still ink jet tanks. I’d like a laser.
