I've actually got one of those :D

The heat press for doing tshirts etc is very small, about A5 size :(

I've only used the mug press attachment so far, not got as far as the caps/plates etc, and the mug press has given great results

But so far so good, says she with fingers crossed :lol:

Be warned though, it took exactly 28 days from ordering to receiving it, then he had a load on ebay for £285, which sold out very quickly.

I've got a ricoh gx7000 and I use sublijet R inks with it for doing dye-sub.

I'm still relatively new to all this, but it does what I need it to do, so I'm happy with it

Thanks paul for that but somehow i dont have any confidence in chinese products. You get what you pay for and at that price i dont expect much from it.

I have read abit about the printer you ar using Kaz and epson seems to have the upper hand for quailty of print for the moment but heh what do i know. Its all swings and roundabouts. Was your printer dear and how much are thwe reloads for the inks?
Thanks everyone.
