Tutorial: Printing your own marquee
rdowdy95:
DOH My hp Deskjet 932c only goes to 14". POS! LOL! Oh well I will definately look into this one of these years when I get a new printer.

Ink for the printer im using is rather cheap, and in my case very cheap considering I refill it myself, however the R200 and R220 is no longer sold, the new R260 has a new ink system. There is upper models also, the r300, r320, r800, im surprised HP printers dont support user defined settings, Anyone know if other Epson printer models support user defined settings? such as their CX series.
Epson does have glossy on a roll but it costs around $60, would be nice to try out. You can run tests with standard size paper, just print on it and stick it behind your plexiglass, see how it looks with the light shining through. I have some genuine Epson glossy paper somewhere ill have to see if its any different.
I want to try laminating one, for protection mostly for when I swap one out with another, not sure if laminating will effect the quality any however. I also have some clear coat spray paint I may try out as well.

added 2 more high res camera photos of the marquee installed, the colors on the last photo is more accurate. Check the end of the tutorial for the photos.

Man I can't tell if that was printed on paper or by professional shop. :o Nice work and thanks for the info.
Darn, My Brother 420N can only go up to 14" as well. I guess that MAME Marquees or Kinkos will be getting my order sometime. I couldn't have done it like this anyway because my marquee is planned to be 10" x 26".

Very nice tutorial, and I've got an R200, plus I got the last one on the newegg link you gave for .99 + 5$ shipping to boot !!
Thanks!
