FAQs
Q. Do I have to let my print dry before stretching / mounting?A. We recommend letting 17M prints dry for 1-2 hours before mounting or stretching for best results. Note: the dry time may vary depending on factors such as your home temperature, outside climate, and more.
Q. My canvas in curling. Help!
Glossy and satin canvas is more susceptible to curling. This curling is most often caused imperfect atmospheric conditions. Please make sure to remove your roll of canvas from the printer when not being used. Also, be sure to store it inside of the original plastic sleeve and inside of the roll box. Make sure also to store your print media as close as possible to our recommendations. Storage temperature should be around 70°F (21°C). The relative humidity in your storage room should be about 50%.
Q. How should I handle 17M no varnish canvas? What about storage?
A. To prevent the transfer of oils and dirt from your hands to the coatings on the media, it’s important to take protective measures. White cotton gloves should be worn when handling the media to keep it pristine. When not using the media, you should store it in its original packaging, exactly how it was shipped to you. Read even more about our recommended handling and storage best practices on our blog.
Q. Do I need to varnish 17M after printing?
Q. Why is the roll’s core wrapped in foam padding?
A. We put padding around each core. This cushions the inner layers of canvas, which prevents creases and grooves from appearing at the end of roll. Some other canvas and paper brands do not offer this layer of protection. What ensues is common creasing and grooving on the canvas material. Our 17M is designed and packed with care. Here’s how we do it with our no varnish canvas:
