DIY Control Panel help required !
« on: November 22, 2007, 07:02:14 pm »
Hi Guys :)

I want to print (as a test) onto either a thin laminate or acetate sheet (For Inkjet printers) I have a lot of CP / Marquee art in vector format....

This then would be covered by a thin sheet of clear Lexan / Plexi etc

What would you recomend me to print onto.... Also thinking of this for a Marquee (Which may be illuminated).....

No ideas.... ? I wonder how the vector graphics would look on photo gloss card then put under 5mm of clear lexan etc ?

What do you think ?

For it to look best, you may want to check one of the vendors for custom printing of your artwork as it will be much better than inkjet printing - regardless of the paper.  I got my stuff printed at mamemarquees.com and they did an excellent job. 

If you want to just do a test print, just print on regular paper with low quality.  Why waste the ink and paper on something you're going to be tossing?
