  • what is the best printer for wallpaper?

    hi
    we are thinking for pigment ink , like cannon, epson or hp.

    could it last for few years in indoor? the manufacturers claim last around 100years in ideal condition , but doubt in real condition.

    considering the solvent ink printer. but take much times , comparing the pigment link printer.

    any advice?

    thanks

    HP Latex – no solvent chemicals, and certain ‘heavy metals’ therefore in sensitive areas eg: Hospitals, childcare.

    Hi Lynn

    I got the Epson SC S80600 which is an eco solvent printer but Epson inks have a certificate for air quality and if kids accidentally swallowed it. It’s called green guard.

    I do quite a lot of wallpapers so I did my research. The latex printers could keep a consistent length so it was not helping when it came to matching up.

    I can recommend a supplier if you’d like?

    From my demo, the S60600 has a fan on it to dry faster, which did get my interest but I went for the model with white ink. Both of those models whip the paper through really quick!
