Hello all,

I want to be able to print on to canvas. Does any one own one that can give me some advice on what one/where to buy etc etc?

Thanks..

Do you want to be able to this long term, or just one or two prints? personally I don't know of any printers that will print to canvas but you have a couple of other options. Get prints done online or you can buy paper that is embossed to look and feel like canvas which will work in a standard inkjet printer.
 
Talk to Lee at togsfriend - he is a member here, and a printer by trade, so will be able to do your printing at far less cost than you, unless you are going into it in a big way...
 
My Epson R2400 prints on Canvas..... however I can't fnd any canvas papers to fit it!! Most rolls are for 17" wide printers like the Epson 4800
 
Update

Clearing out the information I return from focus with Ii found some more canvas options.

Tecco and Fredix do canvas in A4 and A3 sheet sizes.

These are distributed by lion Fine Print in Birmingham ( new to me)

www.fine-print.biz

You can get a Tecco trial pack from them for £10.00 which includes samples of Canvas pro and Canvas satin
 
hey,

I want to make my own custom made Canvas frames and supply the printed canvas for them. I do not want to use a 3rd party company!

Both Jigsaw and Lion Fine Print supply the canvas for printing on. Lion also supply some of the accessories for stretching as well. Get their catalogue, you'll find it all in there
 
Great links guys. Thank you very much :)
 
Yep mailed to see if my IP5200 will print to canvas :) Will see what they say :)
 
Deep Fibre printing method? I print using inkjet printers on both cotton and coated canvases. Laquered but obviously prepared for inkjet printing.

There are options such as micro-weave, vacuum and heat treatment (that I apply to my inkjet prints) on both canvas, textured fine art and other deep textured medium.

I have personally seen the quality of 'budget' canvas printers and they leave a lot to be desired....
