kpsxtyone 0 Posted February 26, 2010 Hi, I am looking to print decals and need help looking for a desktop printer. Maybe something that can handle 11" wide paper? Any suggestions can help. I basically want to print little stickers for my moms day care to start and maybe something bigger later but not like 15" wide stickers:) I was looking for some hp but don't know which to choose. thanks!

MacGrafix 5 Posted February 26, 2010 Office Depot has some sticker paper that you can print little stickers on. It's an Avery product, I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted February 27, 2010 Several members are using the epson 1100 with MACtac vinyl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kpsxtyone 0 Posted March 1, 2010 will the Epson with the MACtac vinyl be enough for automotive decals? (just around 2 x 5 printed decals) I am not sure where i can purchase the MACtac vinyl locally. I know an art store here in toronto its called currys. I will check if they know the make of the vinyl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest sciondrgn Posted March 1, 2010 I have the epson 1100 and have printed with the pappilio vinyl with really good results.. I just seal the vinyl with frog juice before cutting them out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kpsxtyone 0 Posted March 3, 2010 soo true BTW i just got a giftcard for HP... anyone here used an HP printer? if so what model or what HP printer would you recommend. Thanks !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hockeygirl 30 Posted March 3, 2010 The HP Photosmart Pro B8850 is an 8-color pigment printer, prints up to 13"x19"... It's on sale at HP for about $350 right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kpsxtyone 0 Posted March 3, 2010 thank you very much.. looks like a really nice wide format printer.. any reviews or opinion with this printer? i hope they make those optional ink system so i dont die when i have to buy new ink Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hockeygirl 30 Posted March 3, 2010 That's one of the better print quality HP printer I've seen, but I don't own one and can't comment on the reliability. Inkjetcart does sell refillable carts for the HP: http://store.inkjetcarts.us/pro-b8850-c778.aspx. Someone else might have made a CIS for the printer, but haven't come across any yet.

kpsxtyone 0 Posted March 3, 2010 ok. I just ordered the hp printer and will be here in 3 - 5 days. In the meantime i will look for printable white vinyl to test. Unfortunately closest store is Staples. any one in the Toronto area can direct me to some samples i can use to test? shipping from US cost so much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
