Hi to all. I have been reading some of your posts for some time now, reading all I can before I take the plunge and invest in some equipment to put my own artwork on.
I have already learned a lot from all of your posts, but the thing that I can't seem to find out, perhaps not possible to know, is how much ink you use making a mug.
It seems that the ink is the most expensive ingredient in the whole mix, and am wondering how many mugs you can print, assumimg you had a full colour image over full surface- from the 100 ml bottles of ink which seem to be the standard size, or maybe it is 125ml, that are about £60 each.
thanks for any info you can share.
Geoff

Welcome to the forum Geoff. Probably better to post your question in a different part of the DSF, but as a guide an A4 sheet full colour would cost around 60p - a mug 1/3 or less. You should get well over 1000 mugs from a full EasyFlow system.

Hello Martin,...thanks for your reply. Yes, I realised as soon as I had posted that it was in the wrong place...DOH!
