Paper Choice - for small format printing

digital printing press at Hayman Creative Nottingham

What is small format printing?

It refers to printing produced on our digital press (pictured left). Typically we use oversized A3 sheets, (SRA3), and then trim the sheets down afterwards. However one of our digital presses can print sheets up to 1300mm long x 330mm wide.
