Kevin...you're right. It is like engraving...some stuff works best with laser, some with rotary, and some in the sandbox...but...I doubt that most engravers started with all 3 at one time.
My thought is, as troublesome as inkjet is, especially if not used regularly, laser is a good direction to look into...much less trouble for the startup.
I switched to OEM laser a couple of years ago and other than large format, I've not found anything that I could not do and some that I could not do with inkjet.
I was just trying to alert folks here that might be looking that there was emerging technology being introduced over on DSSI...

Doug,
Good idea to point that out. As a sublimation neophyte, I started with inkjet. I did that because I did not like the "look" of OEM but I have recently ordered some paper from Cactus and will be playing around with it.
It was either in a post that I read or a comment someone made that in essence states it is good to have both processes.
Like you mentioned in another post one needs all processes.
Anyway, thanks for pointing that out.
