    Cool Bulk Sub paper

    I have always been a true pix fan BUT I really want to cut paper costs costs, I go through so much! Everything else I buy in bulk and I am wondering if there is a decent bulk sub paper out there?

    I print a range of hard substrate and also fabric.

    So far the only option I have found is Ink Experts paper. Anyone got any other suggestions?

    Thanks in advance.

    Dye Sub Supplies sell the S-race A3+ in boxes of 200, which is surprisingly cheap when compared to 100 pieces.
    The problem of bulk buying is keeping the paper damp free, so a box of 200 is just about right for me.

    I hadn't thought about the damp issue although my studio is pretty stable. I go through at least 100+ sheets a week, more towards Christmas. I will def check out S race, not tried that one.

    Very good paper, with very vivid blacks.
    It needs less time and higher temp than some others. On fabric I use 205c for 40 secs for best results. Speeds up production on volume orders.

    Yeah, I have been pressing fabric at 200 for 30 seconds with Truepix. It's amazing how much it's increased production. And less time to get bored!!!

    Hey!

    We have just released Eco Pro Sublimation Paper in A4, A3 and mug sheets. The price is very competitive and cheaper than True Pix, and in my opinion the output is pretty much identical. If you would like samples to try please contact us and we sort this for you.

    I plan to buy a box of your mug paper soon to compare to my favoured S Race paper, but are you able to tell me who or where your eco pro paper is manufactured?

    Hi GoonerGary

    Unfortunately I cannot tell you the name of the supplier, however it is manufactured in Europe.

    I have just had a look as I was thinking of trying it. The DSF discount doesn't work with the new Eco paper but does with the True pix?

    I have just spoken with the product and marketing team and the discount will be added on the Eco Pro sublimation paper. This is just being set up and will be working shortly.
