    What do I need to be able to make large vinyl prints? 5 ft by 5ft max. I can go way smaller if i have to because I'm 100% sure a printer that big i Can not afford. But how much would it cost? ink? the vinyl itself? If anyone has a link they could give where i could read about it that would be great!


    Thanks

    Evan

    we use a solvent based printer:

    JV3-160 mimaki.
    but that doesn't cut out the vinyl,
    the CG-130 fx does that.
    ink and vinyl cost alot,
    as do the blades and permask.
