Anyone tried Coldenhove papers?

[fridayschild]

Hi All,

Doing my usual scount around for all things sub online and came across RevolutionTransfers.

They are selling a brand of sublimation papers called Coldenhove which appear to come from Holland. (revolutiontransfers are in the UK) and I wondered if anyone had tried them out with any success? (or failure!)

Thanks x

Cant comment on the papers but Ive used RevolutionTransfers for colour profiles, inks etc. Very helpful and professional people.

We use Coldenhove's JetCol HS papers on the roll, and have no complaints.

Thanks Earl, thought I'd google for a review and found the Coldenhove Dutch website but couldn't find any mention of the sublimation paper on it, so still none the wiser.

Having a struggle getting hold of Texprint-R which was recommended to me for tshirts (hence looking for an alternative, like Coldenhove possibly) as it seems to be either out of stock or they want £8 to send one packet. I'm guessing it comes hand delivered on a silver platter for that price!

Oh, hello Pisquee, sorry, overlapped you there, thanks for your input.

Stupid question, I know, but how do you use it with the roll, do you just cut off what you need as you go?

[pisquee]

we use wide format printers, which use a roll feed, so the paper supplied to the printer is continuous, so you only use the amount of paper you need for a transfer, instead of a full sheet size, and you don't have to faff about with loading sheets etc, as the rolls do last a long time

We have a small quantity of the texprint-r in stock at the moment: http://www.printerowners.co.uk/sublimat ... sheets.htm

Back in the day, Epson printers supported roll paper, too. My 1290S and R1800 both did, as did some of the A4 models. In their wisdom, Epson dropped this support with the likes of the 1400 and modern printers. I still have some 13" wide TexPrint rolls here but, these days, I have to cut them up to use them.

Thanks Martin! You'd been out of stock every other time I looked so just nipped in quick and ordered some

Thanks for your explanation of the roll system Pisquee, I have emailed Revolution Transfers and they are kindly sending me a sample so it will be interesting to compare it with the stuff I have now ordered from BMS.

Thanks to everyone who answers my 'stupid' questions on here - I can't tell you how much it means to me that people put themselves out to help. THANK YOU
