Title: Epson P7570: 64 mil Paper?
Post by: whoo on October 02, 2024, 04:58:23 pm

I am not a pro but, I can spend money like one.  Comparing 24" printers, Canon Pro 1100 versus Epson P7570, Epson's paper thickness is double that of Canon's (31 vs 64 mil).  The question is, what medium is that thick?

Maybe just a typo but just wanted to point out that the Canon 1100 is a 17" printer so you may not be comparing like to like

Thanks, yes a typo.  Canon Pro 2600.  And while I'm admitting brain damage, the Epson maximum thickness is 61 mil.

The 7570 (I own one) can print on poster board, hence the greater caliper capability:
