We have a Crystal Gryphon and it works fine for sitting drop plates. We usually set 200+200 nL drops for screens, but it can of course dispense much larger volumes if required. It's affordable and easy to maintain, not much in the way of consumables required. The software is very easy to use, and pretty adaptable to non-standard protocols. I don't have the LCP attachment, but have seen it demonstrated twice.
