anyone used xpress's sub paper?
i usually use true-pix but as i'm placing an order with xpress in the next day or 2 i thought i'd add on some paper but they don't do tru-pix :(

always seems a pity when 1 supplier doesn't do everything you want

i need to get what i want from xpress as their price is loads cheaper for the bulk quantity that i want than anyone else

Hi Smitch6,
I've always used xpres paper, does the job perfect and I've never had bad results - its also available from BMS, slightly cheaper than xpres.

Used it for the first time yesterday, very pleased with the results, just as good as Trupix.

I wouldcsay its ok, definitely fine for mugs and have just done a wooden jigsaw that came out really well. The paper does feel quite poor quality compared to trupix though. I would say once you have used trupix you dont want to go back!

I've been using xpres paper for a while now and always had good prints from it.

ok thanks i think i'll give it a try
i have to buy some kids T's and xpress are doing 50 for £2 each where BMS don't do the quantity discount like that :(
otherwise i'd of bought off them and got my tru-pix at the same time

i do like to stick with what i know lol

Used Xpres for years, tried Trupix but the difference was negligible and personally I prefer a thinner paper.

Of those of you who use the Xpress paper are any of you using the Ricoh printers ?

We have used Xpres paper and Ricoh GX7000 since we started, never had any problems. To be fair we have never tried any other paper, if it's not broke don't fix it.
