UK - anyone need a CPO printing?
Minwah:
I will soon want to get a couple of control panel overlays printed. Having read some recommendations and seen an example (thanks rockyrocket), I am going to use pixartprinting:
http://www.pixartprinting.co.uk/wide-format/printing-self-adhesive-pvc/flat-surface-adhesive/
The minimum order (charged for) is 1 square metre, which is quoted at £45.76. My control panels will only take up 916x345mm, which leaves 1000x650 ish.
Would anyone be interested in getting one done at the same time and share the costs?
Let me know!

Hi, how did you find out they are better resolution printing? Also, I can't see the option of having the print laminated, as required for a control panel overlay?

I was looking to getting my side art printed at Pixartprinting and they only do up to 150dpi (look at the FAQs), that's not enough for good quality prints, Printed.com have 300dpi which is much better for seeing large images closer, like on the side of your cabinet, 150dpi is fine if you are looing from a distance like billboard posters.
I'm not laminating my CP at I have cut an Acrylic/Perspex overlay, so I don't know about lamination!

I would tend to agree with you, all the art I have had printed before has been at 300dpi. That said an example I saw from pixart looked pretty good. I think I will check with them whether their faq is correct...
