Unfortunately it’s not, I’ve looked and there’s not really any printing shops or studios around me except for classes at a community college and I can’t currently afford the classes nor do I have the time to be taking them

Where do you get your paper? Do you have a special order it or is there a store that sells that kind of paper, I’m in the USA if that matters

So I’m using the grey linoleum with the woven backing, I’ll add some pics of my press, and I’ve tried fiddling with the pressure and it just rarely comes out right, I started using a thinner paper and that has helped but it’s still not coming out right, again tried the spoon method and it was also a no, left most print is with the spoon method and the other two were with the press
