Re: anyone printing canvas on the versacamm? I got XC-540 and comes out beautiful actually and looks even better than from epson 7800 and 720x720 works fine
I using Rolands material but hate using the matte material because look so bland but the new glossy is like amazing
very durable,great finish and colors look vibrant and very color accurate.
done tones of stretched 3'x5' wraps with no problem

Re: anyone printing canvas on the versacamm? Thanks Sean
I know a lot of people say they don't like using Rolands materials but I have not heard anyone mention the canvas material.
I need to give it a try and just wanted to make sure to ask which is best because everyone on here gives great advice.

Re: anyone printing canvas on the versacamm? Thanks again for the great info. greatly appreciated. If you don't mind me asking what settings did you use? what software do you use, versaworks I know but Photoshop, corel, etc?
Great looking pics, is this someone you do work for on a regular basis? I am trying to get some doen so I can start trying to sell it. I think it would be a great addition to what we already do.
Thanks so much

Re: anyone printing canvas on the versacamm? Thanks Jen
Good to know. I have been using the Roland material and it has been ok but wanted to get thoughts on other material out there as well
What is the difference between the roland and fellers? Quality wise?
Thanks

I did a 50"x50" today. Awesome.

Re: anyone printing canvas on the versacamm? Fellers Monet hmm stuff is cheap but aint that a Matte?
Last time I used Matte canvas on Roland, looked like crap.
Hey Dave getting a roll of some new stuff that is almost a hundred bux cheaper than Magic I let you know how it turns out : )
So far magic been my fav. and roland is to stiff when stretching in my opinion
