Thick paper inkjet printer

[Droomedaris]

Hello,
for several years searching the internet and several events like Drupa (Germany) I still haven't found what I was looking for. A small payable inktjet printer that is able to print stock paper/cardboard between 400 gr and 1000 gr. Same system like a T-shirt printer (including the white color). Letterpress printing is more popular than ever (what is in my opinion a good thing). There are so many types of paper with a warm powerful character that can only be printed with a letterpress but in my humble opinion there is an open marked for such type of printers without infringing the spirit of letterpress printing. For an technical engineer this must be a piece of cake, so it can't be that those things don't exist. Just for paper, not for the gadget market. Is there somebody...

We have a cheapie Epson P50 that we use for printing CDs and thick paper stock. It has a virtually straight paper path, The ink cartridges are tiny and expensive so you'd be wise to use continuous ink, but do so from the outset.

Hello William,

thx for your reply!! What is the thickest paper you have printed? Have you modified the printer? I have search and found the printer on the internet, but I can't find nothing about the tickness and max format of heavy weight paper.
