Xpres paper is very good, trupix even better but more expensive :-)

I would say get trupix its definitely good paper then if you want to try cheaper paper you have a good paper to compare it to. I bought some of the BMS own brand paper and found I had to use more tape on mugs to get the same results as trupix but ment I went through 6 mugs figuring that out. As for where you buy it its normally best to buy it from where your buying something else due to postage costs.

The BMS paper is Xpres paper :-) Bit cheaper on BMS unless you're a Premium Member and then you get Xpres discount.

I bought before premium got discount at Xpres, didn't know that BMS paper was Xpess paper. Wonder why they only got the + sizes branded then, anyway on mugs I found the ink would migrate unless you tape the paper top to bottom.

I use xpres - one piece of tape and never had any problems with ink migrating.
I've never used Trupix, so cannot compare - happy with xpres paper though.

just to throw my ten pennoth in
Used Xpres and Trupix in the past, currently trying out a sample of TMT sub paper - results so far are very encouraging, so much so that i actually purchased some :o)

Just a clarification here. We sell Xpres paper (economy) and TruPix paper but our own brand paper (SubliClassic +) isn't Xpres's paper ;)

Hope I've clarified this. Our + paper is wider and is not Xpres paper. This is our own brand and different to TruPix and Xpres.
