Steve,
The only advice I'll give you is make absolutely sure the
printer/copier/scanner works perfectly with AutoCAD. I've had many problems
with AC and print drivers for HP products. Have you looked at Oce or Xerox
CAD products? We recently replaced an old HP plotter and scanner with a
large format Xerox XES system. It copies, scans to file, and plots CAD (any
size) without problems. It also cost $25K (w/o the color option). I've seen
Oce products and they look and perform wonderfully also (they cost even
more). I don't know if they (Oce and Xerox) sell equipment designed for the
smaller formats though.
If your requirements take you down the HP road, have the sales rep setup a
system using AC04 to show you it will work.
Lots O' Luck!
Art

the best performance vs cost option.
