Fine Art Printing
This is the one I have and I love it. The print quality is phenomenal, I regularly have folks who think my prints are originals. This printer is huge, and needs to be used regularly to keep it in good condition. Another thing to note is that with thi...
Epson SureColor P5000CE 17" Wide-Format Inkjet Printer with SpectroProofer
I keep basic copy paper in the paper tray of my big fancy printer so I can do regular maintenance print pattern checks to make sure none of my nozzles are clogged or need cleaning.
Staples 100% Recycled 8.5" x 11" Copy Paper, 20 lbs., 92 Brightness, 500/Ream (620016)
The easiest thing to do is type in the number of the ink that's low when you're ordering from B&H.

Fine Art Papers
I haven't used this exact paper, but I've used another one similar and I've considered using this one many times because I like the natural color to it.
Epson Cold Press Natural Archival Inkjet Paper (17" x 50' Roll)
I've used this paper and it's lovely! It is a smooth, soft texture and the natural color is still quite bright in my opinion which is great for natural looking highlights in your work.
Epson Hot Press Natural Smooth Matte Archival Inkjet Paper (17" x 50' Roll)
This is my go-to paper. I use this for all of my prints under 16x20" size. The cold press papers have that classic watercolor texture that I love.
Epson Cold Press Bright Archival Inkjet Paper (17" x 50' Roll)
This is the paper I use for extra large prints. I love that the paper is flexible, making larger prints easier to handle.
Epson Exhibition Canvas Matte Archival Inkjet Paper (17" x 40' Roll)
Cutters
This is the paper cutter I have and I like it!
Rotatrim Pro Series 24" Paper Cutter / Rotary Trimmer
Packaging
This is the backer board I typically use to keep my prints rigid and flat when I package them for a market.
Double Sided Backer Board
A good option for a clear, protective sleeve for your prints during markets and for wholesale orders.
Crystal Clear Flap Seal Bags – Secure, Resealable Packaging | ClearBags
This is what I use to protect my prints when I ship them. I either fold a sheet in half with the print inside, or I roll a larger print in a sheet of Glassine. It saves a backer board and plastic (even eco-plastic isn't great), and it can be recycled...
Glassine Paper Sheets
Shipping
This scale works well!
Shipping Scale - Rollo
Love EcoEnclose for eco-friendly studio biz needs. For Rollo printer choose "black timing mark."
Direct Thermal Labels on Zero Waste Liner - 4" x 6"
Love the wireless aspect of this puppy
Rollo Wireless Label Printer
This is one great option for smaller, flat shipping.
100% Recycled Rigid Mailers, Self Seal | Biodegradable Rigid Mailers
This is what I typically use to ship larger prints that can't ship flat.
Tube boxes
These are great options for when you're shipping multiple items or items that can't ship flat or rolled.
Tuck Top Boxes
Great for printing addresses going on an envelope
Barcode Label - 2 x 1 inches - Rollo
I use these for printing my logo and other stickers needed for packaging
Circle Label - Rollo
I absolutely love my paper tape dispenser.
Paper Tape Dispenser
There are many paper tape options. It just depends on your specific needs! I like using the brown tape for covering stuff on re-used packaging, and white tape for a nice look.
Paper Tape
These are the envelopes I use for my notecard sets as well as for shipping stickers, postcards, and bookmarks for my shop and for my patreon account.
A7 Envelopes - 5 1/4 x 7 1/4
I have an older version that I love. It would be rad to have the wireless version. I use this for printing all of my packing slips for orders.
Brother HL-L2405W Wireless Compact Monochrome Laser Printer

The one I have is discontinued, this one looks fairly comparable. Great for scanning smaller artwork.
Epson Perfection V39 II Color Photo and Document Flatbed Scanner
I love this camera. It has a full frame sensor and a flip viewing screen so I can use it to take good photos of large paintings to make prints, and I can use it for vlogging.

This is a good option for an inexpensive tripod which you'll need for taking high quality images of larger paintings to make prints.
