I am interested in buying a wide format printer. I mostly want to use this for printing 11x17 for my graphic design schooling and personal work. I have owned 2 epson printers and love them (R200, R340). I am pretty partial to epson but I will but other. currently I am torn between:

Epson (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=1109&A=details&Q=&sku=273155&is=REG&addedTroughType=categoryNavigation) Epson Stylus Photo 1280, Photo Quality, Tabloid Size, Inkjet Printer: 269$ after 100$ rebate

&

HP (HP / Hewlett-Packard Photosmart Pro B8350, Photo Quality, Tabloid Size, Inkjet Printer) HP / Hewlett-Packard Photosmart Pro B8350, Photo Quality, Tabloid Size, Inkjet Printer: 283$ from HP student discount.

They both have the same paper size, I am still a little uneducated with the resolution sizes so any suggestions will help. Oh I am trying to keep below 300 or about 300$. Thanks
