i use Solidworks and am wondering whats a great printer to buy for use
(OP)
to use for a small business. I have a 3 in 1 hp but it is a hassle and it doesnt work to great. i'd like to spend around $300. But is this realistic. Any recommendations would be great.
thank you

Really need a bit more info.
There are a lot of good printers out there. I'd suggest doing a comparative search online, comparing price and capabilities.

I caution you that if you don't use most HPs at least weekly you will have problems with all of them. Mine is frustrating me because I only need it about once every 6 months and as I go to use it the cartridges are dead, or the print heads are dead, or both. So single prints are costing me close to $100. I can't tell you how annoying that is.. Recently I started taking my drawings to Kinko's on a USB stick drive.
Seventeen cents <<<< $100. BW
Color are substantially more but still << $100
If you would use it more than once a week I suspect you'd have no issue and get full life out of the heads/cartridges.
I'm not sure if other brands have the same problem or not.
My DesignJet was so annoying with the exact same issue that I just recycled it.

1 advantage that HP has over cannon or epson is that when you replace the ink cartridge you also replace the print head so you tend to have less issue with print heads clogging up. If you do the situation is much easier to fix by replacing the print cartridge vs taking a big chunk of the printer appart.
