This printer prints wonderfully well and we do not want to take a chance on it being destroyed in shipping. The top hinge on the right side of the top has sprung but we always printed with it up, so it was never a problem. Since we are looking for a local buyer, we will help with loading and will answer any questions that you might have ahead of time. This printer has only been used proffessionally with pigment ink and never used with any other ink. The inks in the pictures come with the printer but some colors are low and will soon need to be replaced. Thank you for your interest.
