There are many printers available in the mid range large format market and prices can be very reasonable - for around £2000 you will be able to get an entry level A1 poster printer that can produce good POS prints for indoors with potential for short term outdoor use - i.e. a few months if the printer uses pigment inks. At Green Magic we specialise in consumables for such printers.

• 24" or A1 printers can print 610mm wide and a banner about 2 metres long, enough for most situations.

Buying Epson large format printer inks

Epson Stylus Pro inkjet inks

This series of printers are professional machines - each cartridge has an onboard chip that tells the printer how much ink is left and also which position the cartridge must sit in the printer.

There are two ways of checking which ink you require. First you can check on top of the printer case it will have a label telling you what kind of printer you have i.e. Epson Stylus Pro 9880. Each cartridge also has its own number printed on the side. For example for the Matte black 200ml cart it will say T6128. We recommend that high volume users purchase the 220 ml cartridges (or larger) as they offer better value for money.

We only sell genuine Epson inks.
