Well I've been looking at this forum the past few days and very glad! It's already saved me some cash....
Im new to sublimitation printing although have been into graphics and designing the last few years.
Just thought I would pop and say hello before more researching

Hi Robert,
Welcome to the forum!
We would recommend the A4 Ricoh SG3110 DN as a good start up printer, its cost effective and simple to get up and running with. If you are looking to be able to print items which need a larger print area, there is a Ricoh A3 option, the GXe7700N; which one you opt for really depends on your requirements but both come highly recommended.
Hope this helps,
Becki

Don't buy a second hand Ricoh unless you are certain it has been used for sublimation printing as it will cost you a fortune to flush the inks through. A set of inks will cost around £175 +vat and you can get a full set of inks plus a printer for less than £175 +vat and the £150 you'll pay for that second hand printer.
