    Need help on canvas printers to start a business

    Most comments will suggest a fine art printer with 6 or more colors, my advise for Canvas is go for a Mutoh 1624 works with us better than HP Z6100 and Latex, more durable printer and less cost.

    Chinese Machinery - Recommendations

    Hi, as a basic rule, I do not encourage you to get any Chinese equipment unless you are really in urgent need, also this is true only for 3.2m printers. For any thing smaller DO NOT DO IT .

    Newbie question: What supplies and equipment do I need for this job?

    Newbie question: What supplies and equipment do I need for this job?

    I would go for HP 26500 Latex and a Mutoh Kona cutter for that job, that would be less than 40k, if you don't want to invest in equipment, I can assist you doing it.

    chinese printers

I run 2 HP Z6100, HP 9000, Mutoh Spitfire & Mutoh VJ1624. I was seduced to buy 2 Chinese printers due to their low price and very cheap ink, one...
