Print shop temperature – Wide format inkjet printing
Hi,
I print with 2 x Canon PRO-2600 printers I'm looking for a bigger space for my business. The Canon website says the operating temperature should be between 15°C to 30°C.
The only options that come up around my area (in the UK) are industrial-style units, which are metal buildings with very little insulation and no heating systems installed. In the winter months, I'm going to struggle to keep to 15°C (I expect it to go to single digits through freezing spells) as I'll only be able to heat the space with oil filled radiators or infrared, which I've read mixed things on.
Does anyone print at lower temperatures than 15°C? How low? Any issues?
My other idea is to point an infrared heater at the printers whilst they are printing instead of trying to heat the whole space, so it's just me that's freezing... 😄
