Re: Wide format question slightly off topic

Re: Wide format question slightly off topic

I use elephant supplies for my bars and get canvas for my canvas and varnish.

After hours of wasted time, ink and canvas, I contacted him , he told me to use the I d satin profile. It really does print well. As I said they do come out a ...

I've been buying out of date inks from America. They are a good £10-£20 cheaper to buy than from the uk and only take around a week to 10 days to arrive.
My z2100 44" has been amazing so far
