I got an email from my fabric supplier today; yes they can print on paper but at £5 per linear metre they are twice as expensive as the cheapest print services company. However their price is for printing on 1500mm wide paper whereas the others are printing on 840mm wide paper. I think this calls for some redrawing of my pattern layouts as at 1500m I may be able to reduce the linear length of the printing such that overall the printing costs are cheaper.
