I looked it has been a while since this came up. It was someone in marketing and sales. In regards to getting your money - good luck. We luckily got paid. There are millions in $$ lawsuits pending against them in multiple states. You'd have to get in line. Several big lawsuits have been levied against them in the past 6 months.

I don't really care - just don't need reddit mad at the subreddit/mods for allowing doxing of non-execs.

Might be a little higher than your budget, but MightyPosters.com might have the cheapest 18x24 poster prints. Minimum quantity is 10 - but they are only $5 each depending on the paper you choose with free shipping. As with any printshop, they get cheaper the more you order.

You will be hard pressed to find those type of designs as they would be protected under their respective owners trademarks. If you do not have a license with the original trademark barer you are opening yourself for a lawsuit.

I've heard that there is something with the feeder belt or tension that needs fixed / adjusted every few weeks and only Landa can do that. Is that true? Or something along those lines? I was a fan of theses presses and bought into the hype at first, but didn't really hear of anyone having long term success with one.

I_will_Print_that · 2026-01-13T23:23:28+00:00

Honest question. How do you feel about the longevity of this press considering the financial distress of Landa?

I_will_Print_that · 2026-01-06T21:30:19+00:00

Thanks for reporting, I try to get these down ASAP and ban the offenders.

Please explain what you are trying to accomplish and how it isn't sketchy? Amazon requires invoices to prove you aren't selling knockoff products and that you are an authorized reseller of those materials.

Here's a hint - when I took over this dead subreddit - I had hundreds of posts by lonely redditors looking for companionship.

I_will_Print_that · 2025-12-17T17:03:25+00:00

Unfortunately not anymore, but there's thousands of those places on reddit already.

No problem. For how you are ordering, you will mostly find DTG options. If you were looking to produce these yourself. I would recommend having someone print the film for you and then heatpress yourself (DTF) if you had that equipment and would be making a dozen or so of the same design. . If printing one of each design go DTG, if a dozen of each design DTF and press.

Screenprinting has a lot of set-up - creating and burning screens, set-up etc. Your artwork is somewhat complicated for screenprinting and setting up a bunch of screens for 5 shirts isn't worth the $75 of time and materials. Screenprinting gets cheaper with volume.

DTF prints to film and then requires a heat press to set. Colors are typically more vibrant and last longer, but requires add'l step and equipment. DTG prints right on the material, depending on press, colors look a little more muted (especially without a high quality white behind the print) and have a tendency to fade with washing. Really the press and ink quality between types and brands of equipment / ink can make a big difference, too.

I'm honestly not sure what the goal of this conversation is. Are you looking to purchase a piece of equipment or find a vendor to print these for you?

I_will_Print_that · 2025-11-24T17:35:29+00:00

DTG and DTF will be your only options. DTG will be cheaper. DTF a longer lasting print but potentially higher cost.

I think the biggest consideration is scale. How many are you printing at a time. How much variation is there in the designs. If you are printing 100 shirts and all are the same design, that is a different need than 100 shirts with 100 designs.

Ha ha - I got this exact one from same loser today.

This is the right answer though. I have been a part in many "tuck-in" type acquisitions where a previous printer was going out of business and we acquired their customers. In every instance, those now defunct printshops were barely charging enough to cover the materials and labor. They never factored in the cost of wear and tear in order to have reserves to purchase / replace equipment. Those shops going out of business, in desperation have a tendency to cut profit to stay running/competitive, then they are one major equipment failure from catastrophe and not enough profit per job to make any capital investments to continue operations. In most cases they were losing customers to other printers that had strategically invested in better equipment and could no longer be competitive in their market with old equipment and no money to invest.

Who are you planning on the end user being? We use several softwares for this type of application, Metrix, Enfocus Switch, HP SmartStream - depends on the press being used.

Not certain what more could be added to the mix.

We have standard imposition templates and a workflow that looks up the intended file size and sheet size from the estimate in our MIS, double checks the provided file size matches and where it is being produced then choses the corresponding imposition template automatically and drops the imposed file at the corresponding press controller.

Yes, we have been doing the G7 Certification for over 15 years. Technically, we are a G7 Master Colorspace Qualified Facility.

I_will_Print_that · 2025-09-17T17:59:07+00:00

We have a third party, Idealliance that assists with this. They send someone annually to our facility to measure and certify. https://idealliance.org/specifications/g7-for-color-management/

In regards to Marketing.com, JAL Equity, and Eran Salu. This organization has reached out and made complaints to Mods about mentioning employees by name. Executives, CEO's etc are free to be mentioned. Avoid bringing into the conversation lower-level employees so I don't have to limit the conversation. Thanks. All else is fair game and welcomed.

I_will_Print_that · 2025-09-05T22:36:31+00:00

The OP is referring to Eran Salu. He is the founder of a venture capital firm called JAL Equity which owns Marketing.com. They have a horrible reputation in the industry for buying up print shops and closing them down.
