With just over a month to go I'm interested to hear who's visiting P&P in January? Are you specifically looking for certain equipment, going to see particular suppliers?

For the first year the DSF is having it's own stand! Stand A72, just a very small presence but an ideal opportunity to meet with members new and old, discuss any particular problems/issues you're having, anything really. Just head over and say "Hi" It will be great to put some more faces to names.

I've created a poll at the top of this thread so please cast a quick vote when you get a chance and feel free to discuss below.

Great idea having your own stand Justin. Shame I cant get there to say hi to other members.
However there are three shows over here at the start of the year so I wont miss out. Viscom and PSI in January and at end of March ( in exactly 100 days ) is a trade fair held by the biggest catalogue in Germany. All the clothing firms are there as well as many machine/printer suppliers.

Looking for a new solvent printer, so the choice at PandP might be limited. Might go to one of the sign shows in the Spring.

Let me know which way you go with this. I was intending going eco-solvent but went Latex, big mistake.

If you can get yourselves over the Viscom in January, 8th to 10th, that is the trade fair to go to for Solvent printers.

Viscom is in Düsseldorf, Germany.

What is up with the Latex??

Haha, you're coming on 'Family' Day ;-) I'm looking at freebies but they're not free to me! I'll see what I can do.

Our Latex is sat as a massive paperweight, nothing but trouble since installation, will only print onto HP accredited media unless you want to spend a small fortune getting other media profiled. All in all very disappointing. Don't get me started on the supplier. I can't mention them for legal reasons at this time.

Have you looked on the Metamark site. I am sure their profiles are free.

Yes we have had media from Metamark but profiles are limited and end results not wonderful. It's all geared up to get you to buy HP media. In fairness, Metamark service was excellent and end results some of the best but not good enough.
