Printing on canvas

[munch997]

Been thinking about printing some photos on canvas for a while now, just to hang on the wall at home etc... can anyone recommend a decent website / place to go for prints, but ones that aren't going to cost a fortune?

Many thanks in advance.

My photographic work is now taking up so much of my time, that unfortunately there aren't enough hours left in the day to carry on producing the canvasses.

This means I have a large format Epson 9600 printer, RIP server and RIP software for setting out the prints from large rolls of canvas. If anyone is thinking of setting up a small business from home to print canvasses, this would be a perfect set-up, and I'd be happy to offer a very good price for the lot.

There are plenty on here who, I hope, can confirm that I provided great quality with this set-up !

We print onto fabrics instead of canvas now with much better results, no cracking etc.. Happy to offer a couple of test examples FOC (not framed) for anyone who wants to see the results. Also ideal for cushions and other furniture coverings (up to 1.6m wide x 5m+ long).

I've never, ever seen any cracking on a canvas, certainly not on the many I've produced !

'Oldred V8S' - I replied to your message. Did you get it ?

Cracking can occur with some canvas stock. Cotton is the worst for it. Too thick to fold properly most of the time.

The stuff we use is great for not cracking and trust me, we tried plenty before we found stuff we were happy with.
