BMS sell a high release fabric paper, not sure what its called

That one is JetCol.

Thank you Martin could never remeber whats its called.

Well there you get it called JetCol and after you've used it once, you'll never change.

Due to the properties of this paper you may need to allow up to 10 minutes drying time before using the paper and then be careful as you lay this on to the garment to avoid smudging.

This is why i`m reluctant to use this

I have found the Xpres paper to be great for alround printing. Solid block colours onto ceramic never a problem so far. I would never touch the cheap unbranded stuff as you will just be wasting your money.

Martin, do you sell TruPix in 8.5"x11" format? I see only "true A4" on your website.

I find 8.5"x11" to be a more convenient size for many things because it's that extra bit wider than A4.

We've standardised on A4, but might have a few packs of US Letter in the office - I'll try to remember to check tomorrow and let you know.

Thanks.

It'll be a lot better if I can order my paper with my order rather than having to keep getting it from elsewhere. I'm normally in favour of A4 size, but I find the extra width of Letter size to be quite convenient for many things.

I'll be placing an order tomorrow so if you can let me know sooner rather than later, that'll help. Thanks!

Hi everyone, we're just looking at trying out both trupix and texprint. A couple of comments have said texprint can smudge on t shirts/polo shirts though the results are good. Is this the case generally? Pipesy

Hi everyone,

Hope I can help a little here.

Dealing with customers and doing sublimation myself, Trupix seems to be the most popular. Using that with Sawgrass inks gives the best results.

However, there are other papers available. There is ink jet light, ink jer dark and self weeding paper. These are used in situations where the garment being sublimated is not made of polyester and in some cases, is not white. These products work very well but the downside to them is they do not have a long life span. People use these for promotional items such as one day events etc. The reason they do not have a long life span is because the pigment is being transferred to the garment, unlike with standard sublimation paper where it turns into a gas and dyes the yarn.

Hope this helps - it is my first post

Great first post Sarah - always good to hear from the end users with their opinions
