  • Publication number: 20150030788
    Abstract: A substrate suitable for use with digital imaging systems such as large-scale digital flatbed printers is provided. This substrate includes a first layer that further includes a durable material suitable for receiving a printed image; a second layer that is attached to the first layer, wherein the second layer further includes a material that is different than the material of the first layer, and wherein the second layer is operative to provide structural support to the first layer. The first layer may include a variety of papers, canvas or canvas-like material, or unbleached, uncoated, high-strength paperboard. The second layer may include a substantially rigid polystyrene core or other rigid or semi-rigid material. A third layer may be attached to the second layer and may include some or all of the components of the first layer. This printing substrate may include an integrated frame for providing structural support to the substrate.

  • Publication number: 20140314971
    Abstract: A printing substrate for use with digital imaging systems that includes a first layer that further includes a material suitable for receiving a printed image; a second layer attached to the first layer, wherein the second layer further includes a material that is different from and of greater rigidity than the material of the first layer, and wherein the second layer is operative to provide structural support to the first layer; and a frame made from and integral with the printing substrate, wherein the frame surrounds a centrally-placed square or rectangular region of the printing substrate, and wherein the frame further includes multiple foldable regions that are folded over, inward, and downward onto the second layer and secured thereto.

  • Patent number: 8383232
    Abstract: A printing substrate is provided, wherein the printing substrate includes a top layer; a middle layer, wherein the middle layer is attached to the top layer, and wherein the middle layer further includes a material that is different than the material of the top layer; and a bottom layer, wherein the bottom layer is attached to the middle layer, and wherein the bottom layer further includes a material that is different than the material of the middle layer and a material that is the same as the material of the top layer; and wherein the printing substrate is adapted specifically for use with use with digital imaging systems such as large, flatbed digital printers and the like.
