Let me know which way you go with this. I was intending going eco-solvent but went Latex, big mistake.

can you tell us why? I was actually thinking about latex

I have had mixed reports about latex.
The sign shops seem to love them - mainly because there is no need to leave overnight to out gas before laminating or cutting. On the other hand one of the area managers for a major ditributor told be that the the new Roland latex printers were no use for garments. There are serious wash problems with the finished product.

I am leaning toward the Mimaki CJVC150/107. Largely because of the 44" ( 110cm) media width at the similar price to the 30" (75cm) Roland. It will add some versatility to the sign/banner side of the business. I have hardly ever been asked for a sign wider than 1 metre.
