"Fabric" Type photo paper

Jay Dee · 2009-05-29 17:23:36

I have seen portrait photos, in A3 size, printed on a fabric type paper, to make the photo look like a painting. Where do you get this "paper" and can you use a normal A3 printer to print the photos.

STSC is the person to be contacted. Material that he uses for prints is just fantastic. It is like candy store for eyes. He has lot's of samples. Try to PM him, he is true gentlemen and if you could pay him a visit, it'll be worth it, I promise.

You can't use a "normal" printer for cancas, but the phrase normal is a bit vague.
What you consider normal might be different to someone else etc

Canvas for printing comes on rolls and there are specific printers that will accept these rolls, wide format printers. They are quite expensive and trust me quite hard to use so Steve is defo your man if you need some prints done on canvas.
