Print credit
Print credit is made up of masters and copies. A “master” refers to the physical sheet which your image is reproduced on. A “copy” refers to the number of actual physical prints. Members buy print credit as needed and can top-up as they go. The riso machine automatically keeps a tally of individuals' print credit levels
Masters - £3 each
Copies - 20p each
Riso Papers
In the studio we only put A3 size paper through the riso. Most importantly - it is all uncoated stock. The studio shop sells a range of neutral shade papers, in 100g-300g weight as well as more colorful options. Members are welcome to bring in their own paper/card to print with just as long as it is A3 size, uncoated and in the range of 100g-300g
