Yes, Inktec's are 2" ... took ages to get 2" spindles to replace the 3" ones the HP Stitch came with so we could use Inktec papers again

E2A ... Inktec can do 3", but they have to order in from HQ in Korea, so long lead times

Yes and 24" is one of the available widths in the linked page ... ALTHOUGH we use the 63" width version.

We predominantly do fabrics ... it didn't dry fast in the 9600 but we were putting down a lot of ink, so had racks to hang the prints on for the ink to dry. The HP Stitch has a heater to dry the ink so comes out totally dry now (as well as being a thermal printing process - note, not as much heating to dry the inks as the Latex printers it's based on!)
