RE: [Digital BW] 13" matte roll papers

2006-11-02 by Richard Smallfield

Hi Daniel & co,
thanks so much for all your input.

Thanks for the tip about the Permajet papers - Euroconz.com have it in Auckland.

I paid about NZ$350 for 50 A3 sheets of Photorag 308 at Aarque Graphics ... I'll have to phone Euroco and see what the Permajet sells for.

They have all these sizes at Euroco ... I'm not sure what to do about modifying the roll holder though. What is necessary? It's disappointing that Epson did not set the printer up better for these papers and that they don't come in 13" width.

thanks,
Richard
