hi iat work we got the above mentioned printer , if i were to buy a roll of http://www.digital-fusion.co.uk/Inu_products/INU_ProdDetailsL9.asp?ref=24509070 <-----vinyl, would this be ok for printing side art and cp layout on the paper and printer? and if so would photoshop or paintshop pro be ok software to use?? |

Yup, That's the vinyl I use on my 44" HP. The one you mention is 36" wide though and will not fit into your printer. Find the 24" wide one. Good luck! Alex |

cool thanx for info, when using the printer (they use it for drafts) the colour looks a but faded unknowen if this is because of paper or ink (gen ink init) or if its on draft copy, i will check the paper size it could be bigger than what i sayed, its aroll upto my waist, when im next on nights ill play with it (hopefully get drivers for vista) and print a few mocks before ordering the paper :) saves getting 3 copys of side art and controlls printed at mamemarque or anyother place, (but il get the marques from there as its backlit uv paper) |

You can print all of this on your printer. I use to run a 60" for a printing company. As far as your distributer goes,being im from the US, you may have to be a bit more choosier. If you are running a roll fed printer and your prints are coming out washed out then you are going to want to color profile your printer for the media that you are using. We ended up having a tech come in and run calibrations once a month on our equipment, but you can do a pretty good job by yourself. Gretag macbeth, and EyeOne both make color profiling systems so that you can get your color output just right. As far as hp material, Im not too wild on it. Ive used lexJet in the past and used them for around 3 years. I'm sure the UK has some good suppliers that copy other medias. Here are some back lit options for your printer. Not all come in 24, but if you order a 48" they will cut it in half for you. Backlit material prints just like standard media, but you backprint it, and set your printer to reverse the image. http://www.lexjet.com/lexjet/dept.asp?dept%5Fid=13140 Here are some self adhesive medias. http://www.lexjet.com/lexjet/dept.asp?dept%5Fid=13144 All in all you have a awesome setup. If you call ( ask for Angela Albritton) she's a rep I used and although she doesn't cover your area, she is one of the most helpful people I've ever dealt with in sales. |
