Press advice needed

Hi All
I’m looking for some advice on purchasing a new press. I currently have an 8x12 C&P OS and a Pearl 7x11 and need something with a larger print area. It would mainly be for art prints - my girlfriend is a pen & ink artist and we convert her artwork to mag plates for printing on the C&P so we’d need something capable of high quality printing. The ideal size would be able to print an image 19x24 but 14x17 would be acceptable. Our budget doesn’t allow for a Vandercook - is a Showcard press capable of producing high quality work? Another larger C&P would work for the 14x17 size but I’d prefer something a little lighter if possible. Any advice would be greatly appreciated - thanks!
