Struggling with sourcing a printer / media combination – Help Appreciated!
Hi all,
I made my first post a couple of months ago with regards to producing bespoke sized number plates and I now have all the foundations in place (A few orders have even been made on my website which I have had to refund! 🙁 ) . The only issue I am struggling with is the media / printer combination.
Tennants UK and the other main number plate material suppliers are not able to offer their solution as they only supply standard ‘off the shelf’ materials which don’t accommodate my bespoke number plates so I am forced to come up with my own solution.
I have found 2 materials which I am interested in:-
1) Xerox Premium Nevertear Clear Clingfilm SRA3 53Mic Paper Backed 50/pk 007r91568
This media is laser printer friendly but only comes in SRA3 sizes which has its limitations; I can produce smaller number plates this was but not the larger ones. Also, I am not sure which printer will give a nice dense black print on this media.

2) Orajet 3651 Gloss Clear Perm 1520 X 50m 1rl
This media is solvent inkjet, eco solvent inkjet, latex inject, and uv inject compatible. This is in roll sized of either 1370mm x 50M or 1520mm x 50M which will cover everything I need. However, the printers are significantly more expensive and I am reluctant to spend multiple 000’s on a printer at this moment in time. Can anybody recommend a supplier for a respectable printer which isn’t so costly – possibly even allow monthly payments?

Alternatively, does anyone have any recommendations on other printer / media solutions I could consider? I am fully DVLA registered and need this solution to be fully legal; any advice is greatly appreciated!
Kind regards,
Carl. -
