Stepper motor speed

Stepper motor speed

I want to build my own printer. I started looking for a stepper motor (it should have more than 4.5KG.m torque) but then i was a little confused. For a 3d printer we want a strong motor but a fast motor too. So, how do i know how fast is a motor? Yes, i'm familiar with the torque vs speed graph. There isn't a way of getting a little more speed with a motor and lose some torque?

For example, i found one in robotdigg (http://www.robotdigg.com/product/29/Nema17-60mm-1.5A-high-torque-stepper-motor) and in the ad it states that the motor is a slower. There isn't a way of getting that motor running at 5KG.m and this way gaining speed? How do i found a motor with good speed and motor?

Do you know any good motor with more than 4.5kg.m of torque?

Grateful
