This versatility has enabled the company to expand its product range cost-effectively, with notable use for printing on wall coverings, panels and metal surfaces. Matt Ryder, Print Specialist at Allen Signs, adds that no substrate has resisted this machine.
This versatility has enabled the company to print on a wider variety of substrates more efficiently and cost-effectively, explains the executive. In particular, the machine has been used to print on wall coverings, directly on cardboard and on metal surfaces.
