one thats been answered a few times as well :wink:, yes they can be kept, best in a sealable bag (as the paper comes in) but most people keep them, some for weeks and some for months with no problems

I think it really depends on the substrate (i.e. if it's a hard surface like a mug or softer like a placemat) and the paper you use.

I've done the same as Purple Dragon and used a print for a mug well after a year it was printed and it was perfect. But I also tried some HR (High Release) Paper on a t-shirt just to be curious with one that had been printed and left out for a few months - I got a good print but as I had the original shirt to compare it too the colours were not as vibrant.

But, as Laura says - keeping them in sealed bag will help :)

Thanks all my main reason for wandering was obviously when printing mugs etc i may only want 1 but didnt want to just out 1 on the page as i dont want to much waste.

Thanks again
