Many large retailers have access to their own large inkjet printer, there are many different types of paper roll media available, and it can be costly if you buy the wrong kind. Here at Green Magic Co. we have specialised in large format media rolls for over 20 years and have tested hundreds of paper types from all the leading manufacturers. We suggest you follow a few simple rules when using your large-format printer that will keep your printing costs to a minimum.
The simplest way to determine which paper to use is to ask yourself whether your poster is for an indoor or outdoor display
Indoor posters can be very cheap to produce in-house. If you are advertising a one-off event or a limited-time offer, we recommend using a matt-coated paper. If, however, you are launching a premium product range or signage that needs to last more than a few months, then use a photo gloss paper or a heavy banner paper - these tend to hold your image and text better with a vibrancy that can really stand out.
There are some things to consider for outdoor point-of-sale printing, and there are many more choices, but the main ones are:
The answer is simple: use it! Keep the ink flowing through the nozzle head. It's a little bit like paint in a can - if you leave it too long, it goes hard and blocks the delicate print head. Also, keep your printer clean.
We specialise in printing paper on rolls for retailers and hold hundreds of rolls in stock in our UK warehouse that we source directly from the paper mills. Because of this, you're not paying for a branded box - just very high-quality paper.
We all know that a well-looked-after snap poster frame can last for years; the aluminium construction will not rust, and the protective anodised coating keeps it looking great. The poster cover sheets, on the other hand, do degrade over time, especially if they are in a sunny location where the UV light slowly attacks the cover, making them brittle and slightly discoloured. Don't panic! You can purchase replacement poster protectors from Sign-Holders at a fraction of the cost of a new snap frame.
Our covers are made from high-quality anti-glare material that resists UV light for as long as possible. The best part is that they will fit snap frames purchased from other outlets too - just check the size that you require carefully, as mistakes can be costly to rectify. If we don't stock the exact size you need, you can buy a bigger sheet size and simply cut it down with a sharp Stanley knife. Be careful though, as this will require some effort!
