are we talking A3+ as a large format printer, or bigger than this (i.e large format being A2, A1 ->)
I believe large format refers to 17" and larger - although there was some discussion once that 17" might not be large enough, because you can get 17" printers that can fit on a desktop these days.

Wide format is 40" or there abouts - the 9000 epson series and up I thought. The 17" 4000 series is not covered and neither supposedly is the 7000 range which is crazy if you saw the size of it. We have had a couple of 4000 series as well as the 9000. Not sure who on earth thought it was justifiable to call the 7000 a desktop and not wideformat.

'The approved (licensed) use is for 42" and above printers only (Large Format)'
Ideal for sublimating tents, hot air baloons, marquees etc.....................Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
