Will this do the job?

[mp21]

Hi all,

read a couple of threads on here today and decided to join to ask a few questions after reading some of your excellent posts.

I basically want a setup that allows me to print vinyl graphics to go on vehicles.

Size: 5 inch x 5 inch

Last 2-3 years (outdoors in all UK weather)

White vinyl with black print

Black print doesn't need to be an amazing resolution, just a bit of text and a number.

As cheap as possible.

Being a complete newbie to all this and from reading the internet, watching YouTube, etc I've come to the conclusion that the following may achieve my goals; could you be so kind to give me your thoughts/opinions on this, please?

Epson EcoTank ET-2850 (can get an offer on this plus it uses pigment eco-solvent ink). Is there a big difference between Micro Piezo and PrecisionCore? Would the extra cost be worth it for basic printing, i.e no fine graphics?

Thanks

Would an HP laser printer work as in this video?
