Thanks Andrew, that was a concern I had, and I thought it probably best to look at a A4 sub printer to begin with.

Cheers Kaz, will check it out.
Yeah that's unfortunate about the A5 plate, I would have been hoping for A4 size.

Re: Advice sought on all things dye sub

<r>Hi all,<br/>
Dye sublimation is an avenue I'm looking to go down, but I'm a bit confused as to the printer aspect, basically I have three printers on is a HP1510 and the other two are Epson - R285 and an 9880. Although I don't really want to use the 9880 at this stage for doing dye sub stuff so I ...
