The highest quality inkjet media, specially selected by ImagePrint and Red River Paper for the Cut-it-out! system.
Our partnership with Red River Paper is the result of many months of testing and sourcing papers that would perform to the highest of standards for use with ImagePrint Cut-it-out! Our goal is to provide a wide variety of medias that reduce the time it takes to begin production with this exciting new technology.
We chose Red River Paper as a partner because they were willing to listen to the specifications that are required to successfully cut paper with a cutting plotter. With their extensive knowledge of the industry we were able to choose and test existing papers and source other papers that were desired. We also wanted a ready supply of larger cut sheets for the 17” sheet fed market and Red River had the means to make that available right away.
It’s been well known that the most efficient way to print photographs with large format printers is from a roll. The biggest challenge with roll media is always the curl memory. Many issues come into play when trying to reduce curl from a roll. The second issue is how to cut out all those small photos accurately and efficiently. Cut-it-out! solves
that problem leaving nothing more than a little curl to deal with.
Core size - 3” cores are mandatory for reducing roll curl. All ImagePrint Premier Photo Media is delivered on a 3” core.
Master Roll - From where on the master roll did the media come from. This is out of any suppliers control and each roll will differ in this regard.
Freshness - The length of time the roll has been boxed from the time is came off the master roll to the time it was sold. We found with Red River Paper as a high quality, smaller supplier that the freshness of each roll was extremely good in our testing. This had a big impact on jobs coming off the printer and having very little curl from the start. It allows the user to move from print to cut without a transitional time to either rest the print flat or to D-roll it.
