I bought the 360 thinking I may try some larger decals for rod tubes or some other non-rodbuilding projects at some point in the future. The show price was a good deal compared to the few other suppliers advertising it on-line. I'm certain the extra resolution has no advantage at the small size we're printing the rod labels, and the 270 will work just as well. I'm very impressed with the printer. Set-up was easy and learning curve fast. I created a logo with Inkscape (vector graphics program), converted it to a metafile, and imported it onto a label in the MLP software with relative ease. The image seemed a little rough when scaled down in the MLP software, but it printed out beautifully with extreme detail on the label. Larry is very responsive and great to work with. It's extraordinarily convenient to be able to get customized labels exactly how you want them (always on the first try so far) and instantly. I completely agree with Lance on that. I'm very glad I bought it.
