LexJet has partnered with York Wallcoverings to update its line of inkjet-printable wallpaper compatible with solvent, low-solvent, latex and UV-curable inks. LexJet Velvet WallPro SUV by York, LexJet Pebble WallPro SUV by York and LexJet Canvas WallPro SUV by York are now available in both 15 oz. and 20 oz. weights.

Applied with wallpaper paste, LexJet WallPro SUV by York is a high-quality, permanent wall mural solution for a range of environments, including homes, corporate offices, healthcare facilities, schools, retail stores, museums, restaurants, hotels and resorts, sports and entertainment venues and more.

“LexJet WallPro printed great; it looked like it did on the monitor to the printer,” says Chris Knight, owner of Deck the Walls, Joplin, Mo., regarding a project the company did for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition using LexJet Velvet WallPro SUV.

LexJet Velvet WallPro SUV by York comes in three subtle textures: Velvet, Canvas and Pebble. Velvet has a smooth, lightly textured surface perfect for high-resolution images and photos. Pebble is best for those who desire a more visible texture behind the image. Canvas has the texture of finely woven canvas for a more fine-art look.

“As the oldest and largest wallcovering manufacturer in North America, York understands substrates from a printer’s perspective. And more importantly, we know what works best on walls,” said Tim Quinn, York Wallcoverings Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “York is proud to partner with LexJet in offering six superior-quality LexJet WallPro items.”

LexJet WallPro SUV by York wallcovering substrates also meet Class A fire-rating standards and EPA requirements for low-VOC emitting products.

The 15 oz. and 20 oz. versions of each are available in 54″ x 20′, 54″ x 75′ and 54″ x 150′ rolls from LexJet’s Nationwide Distribution Center Network.

Custom Leather Book Cover Demos at Print 13 in Chicago

LexJet and FastbindUSA will unveil a new print process for creating full-color, photographic images on leather book and album covers at Print 13 in Chicago, Sept. 8-12, in Booth 2684.

CoverFilm from FastbindUSAThe new print process is based on the proprietary Avatrex coating technology from LexJet, which can be created with wide-format aqueous, solvent and latex printers, as well as HP Indigo presses.

FastbindUSA has designed a process using its case-making system and Avatrex technology, called CoverFilm, that allows a full-color image to be transported onto and conformed to virtually any surface or substrate. In this case, the CoverFilm method produces a custom print that retains all of the qualities of the leather – the look (or “hand”), feel and smell – since the process essentially fuses the artwork into the leather.

“CoverFilm encapsulates the ink between the substrate surface and the outer layer, protecting the ink and substrate from the elements without the need to add an additional layer of lamination,” explains Kent Dalzell of FastbindUSA. “The result is a custom print that keeps the original surface texture, but is durable enough to make photo book or photo album hard case covers.”

Avatrex technology, a winner of the Print Industries of America Intertech Technology Award in 2012, was developed combining a proprietary nano-chemistry with a proprietary coating technology called the Synergistic Layering Process.  This chemistry and process allow Avatrex to operate as a printable media and laminate, as well as an adhesive in specific applications, all in one material.

Avatrex technology has also been certified and awarded a 3 Star rating by the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) for use with HP 4000 and 6000 series Indigo presses and the HP Indigo 5600 Digital Press’ One-Shot process.

The technology will be demonstrated at the FastbindUSA booth using an HP Z3200 aqueous wide-format printer. Samples created with other print technologies, including HP Latex and HP Indigo, will also be featured in the booth.

Print 13 attendees who visit the FastbindUSA booth can also take advantage of show-only specials and promotions. For more information about Avatrex technology, go to www.avatrex.com, or contact LexJet at 800-453-9538.

End of Year Rebates from Canon, Epson, HP

Inkjet printer promotions and rebates
Donald Stocks of PIP Printing in Greenville, N.C., took advantage of the combination of rebates and the LexJet iPad Mini promotion. He's up and running with his new Canon iPF8300S, shown here printing on LexJet 8 Mil Production Satin Photo Paper. Stocks said, "The pricing was great and the iPad Mini was icing on the cake."

Just in time for Christmas, following are a variety of rebates and promotions from Canon, Epson and HP, most of which end on Dec. 31.

Speaking of Dec. 31, don’t forget to take advantage of LexJet’s free iPad Mini promotion: Buy a 42″ or wider printer and/or laminator, plus $500 in inkjet media or laminates, and you get a free iPad Mini. To top it all off, you don’t pay anything until Jan. 31.

As Gary Kingsbury, owner of The UPS Store in Homestead, Fla., put it: “I’m very pleased with the deal, especially since a starter set of ink is included; that’s not an insignificant value in and of itself. My net cost on the printer is quite low when you consider everything you get with it.

Canon
From now until Dec. 15 you can take advantage of mail-in and trade-in rebates, which can be combined:

  • iPF6400: $300 trade-in rebate (must include a photo of any 17″ or wider printer), plus a $300 mail-in rebate

  • iPF8400: $400 trade-in rebate (must include a photo of any 17″ or wider professional printer), plus a $1,000 mail-in rebate
  • iPF9400: $1,000 trade-in rebate (must include a photo of any 36″ or wider printer), plus a $1,500 mail-in rebate

  • iPF9400S: $500 trade-in rebate (must include a photo of any 17″ or wider professional printer), plus a $1,000 mail-in rebate

And, while supplies last, there are also ongoing trade-in and mail-in rebates on Canon’s other printers:  $300 on the iPF6300, iPF6350, and iPF8300S; $880 on the iPF8300; and $1,200 on the iPF9000S and iPF9100. For trade-in eligibility you must have a 17” or wider printer for the 24” Canon printers, or a 36” or wider printer for the 44” or 60” Canon machines.

Mail-in rebates include $350 for the Canon iPF5100, $500 for the iPF6300, $1,000 for the iPF6350, $1,000 for the iPF8300 and $3,200 for the iPF9100. The trade-in and mail-in rebates on these printers can be combined where applicable.
