I'm being lazy I know ......

1. What would be the best transfer paper to use with our Ricoh GX7000, Sawgras Inks & 11oz mugs?

2. Same question - for MDF photo plaques?

I use Xpres paper (Also available slightly cheaper through BMS) I use it for everything now and get great consistent results.

I've tried Trupix and wholst initially I found the colours slightly better didn't get on so well with the paper being a bit thicker.

I always use Trupix and never had any problem. We're using the Ricoh GX7000.

Thanks guys. Is there more than one type of Trupix paper? If so, which type to choose?

Cheers

Just out of interest Martin, what's the lowest cost on Trupix for a high volume?
