What sort of paper do you print your covers on? your titles are so easy to read when printed compared to my shitty printer results.

Do you use a ink or laser printer ?

so glossy paper and canon printer.
we've always been epson brand and a ciss ink supply system but might need to try a different brand next time.

Laser print is a bit much expansive but the quality it's much better i think and you can print much more cover with laser than ink

so you reckon you get more covers printed with toner than you do ink and the quality is better?

The Canon Pixma printers are awesome, just got myself an iP7250. Currently using the Canon Matte photo paper. The printer itself is only £50 has wifi and does disc printing too

might have to do some research into cannon.
batman vs superman was awesome better than i thought. cant wait for next set of movies based on other DC characters or justice league movie.

Thanks Bajeeza for posting those pics! The print quality looks awesome and I'm always thrilled to see my covers in use!

Also nice to hear the discussion about printer and paper types. I think this info will be useful to members in getting a higher quality print. I have an HP LaserJet Pro 200 color and I love it. I don't use it for many covers, but when I do, they come out great. Laser is definitely the better option over inkjet. The printer was about $250 (almost four years ago when I bought it) and a set of 4 toner cartridges (C,M,Y, & K) usually runs me about $250 as well. But I change the cartridges (maybe) once a year, if that... depending on how much printing I do. Also has wifi, which is awesome. Can send stuff to print from laptops, phones, and tablets, even if I'm not at home. I'm sure the other printers mentioned in this thread produce excellent, if not better, results as well.

Saw it last night. Had some great moments that never fully blended into a successful whole. I don't want to give anything away, so I'll put the rest inside of a spoiler tag, even though I will speak as generally as possible...


Affleck as Batman, Jeremy Irons as Alfred, and all the bat-stuff in general were awesome. Wonder Woman was great. Cinematography was beautiful. As expected, it was the usual Zack Snyder "style-over-substance" approach and I can't really complain about the visual qualities of the film (except maybe a tad too much CGI at times).

Hated Eisenberg as Luthor, he was over-the-top, annoying, horribly miscast, and I just don't care for him as an actor in general. Amy Adams was bland and Lois is yet again shoehorned into the plot for no good reason and to make dumb choices. I felt the Justice League setups were handled lazily and awkward. Certain parts of the film also just further prove that DC is trying to do too much too fast, without giving proper time to establish this world and letting audiences connect with the characters.


Overall, it was average and about what I expected after Man of Steel. Doesn't make me very excited about future DC films, although Suicide Squad looks great and possibly even fun (which is rare for a DC film).

so roughly once or twice a year u would have to replace ink cartridges kernie?
have to think bout getting another printer in few weeks.start getting the collection complete and in covers n on shelfs.



affleck wasnt as bad choice for batman really i dont think.people going overboard about it. wonder woman was good in it,i reckon snyder did a good job with it especially killing superman but too many twists at end i reckon should of made it 1 simple one.
i liked how he did the meta humans on the computer showing other characters but totally agree with u about the lois thing n the actor playing her just utter sh1t.cant wait for suicide squad or even wonder woman/ cyborg movie.only thing about the characters i didnt like was the choice/image of the flash.coulda been alot better.One thing i reckon they went over board with was doomsday exploding after exploding bigger/stronger over n over again,over did the character i reckon one explode too many.Also agreed too many plot things going on at once and didnt really connect well with the scenes from 1 to the other but wasnt to bad being a different superhero movie ingeneral.
