MAGNAchrom.

Post by Keith Tapscott » Tue Jul 03, 2007 10:17 am Etc/GMT-1+01:00

I`ve just downloaded the latest issue of MAGNAchrom which is the largest issue yet at 70 pages (19.51MB). I would like to print this to a decent quality for keeping and would like some help as to do this. I have an Epson 1290S printer, so some advice as to printer settings and print material would be appreciated.:?:
Thanks,
Keith.

Keith, I would use a decent double-sided satin paper, printing odd pages first and then even pages on the reverse sides; Maybe use a comb binder to keep the pages together.

Thanks for replying, any particular brand of paper? I`m not really familiar with ink-jet papers other than regular glossy photo paper, so something cheap and cheerful required. Also, which binders to choose.
Thanks again.

Keith, I tend to use papers from Fotospeed, their own EG papers seem to be quite good and relatively inexpensive. See their website for their current catalogue. As for binders, I would tend to take a mooch around my local Staples but, as I have never actually done any binding myself, your gues could be as good as mine :)
