I've not tried trupix so can't compare but for me the texprint paper was more black than the subiflex. Also I only print mugs at the moment and love the ease of the pre cut papers. I've not been able to find trupix in that size hence why i havent tried it yet. A lot of my designs have blocks of black text so black is very important to me. All pictures looked great no matter what I used but I wanted sharp blacks as green, brown or faded blacks just ruined the mug, well for me anyway lol
