Why not print yourself?

It's easy to create stunning results with beautiful colors and details with large format printing when you print yourself. Whether you need to print photos, art, signs, posters or line drawings, it is much easier than many people think and printers are now so cheap to buy that it is not worth buying your prints from a print shop.
We are dealers of both Epson, Canon and HP large-format printers and plotters and are experts in their use and setup. Therefore, we can always help with the full set-up and training, so that you can be completely self-driving in your production.
You can print on many types of paper and media and the selection just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
Everything from ordinary 80 g/m2 paper, to waterproof media, matte poster paper, semi- and fully glossy photo papers, fine art art paper, roll-up film, banner materials for indoor and outdoor use, self-adhesive foils and much more.
This means that as long as the medium is suitable for Inkjet technology, you will be able to print on it with one of our Inkjet printers from either Canon, Epson or HP.

It is easy to print yourself in the highest, photographic quality with an 8-12 color printer. You can make everything from photo prints to art reproductions of the highest quality.
Both Epson, Canon and HP have printers that can be used to achieve a large color space and perfect colors.

Signs, POS and Posters

Posters, roll-ups, indoor signs and banners are easy to print yourself. You can do it for a price that we often see is up to 1/5 of what it costs to buy from the printer.
You can also print self-adhesive foils for e.g. window decorations.

Technical CAD and GIS

Line drawings with perfect detail and precision are a requirement today. We have solutions for smaller companies that need few drawings, and we have solutions for larger companies with multi-user environments. You can choose the scan module and how large a print volume the machines must be built for.

Education and schools

Print fine posters, boards and presentations yourself for educational use. You can print both learning material and creative wall decorations or wallpaper yourself, and today it is so easy to print that we see schools letting students print or bringing in printers as part of a makerspace.

Print to the edge and save the work of cutting

In the old days, there was always a lot of cutting work after you had printed, but many of the new printer models from Epson and Canon support borderless printing, which means that you can e.g. get a finished 50x70 out of the printer or a completely finished Roll-up, which just needs to be assembled.
Especially with many of Canon's printers you can make use of this, but Epson is also coming strong after it.

Typically, for example, a poster webshop will be able to take huge advantage of having rolls cut to the measurements they want and then be able to print finished posters directly from the printer.
It could also be a craft company that can print finished A1 or A0 or the internal marketing department, which in 5-10 min. can make a finished poster or roll-up.
