To go from Raw cotton to printable canvas I would guess will take a couple of Million $USD investment at the very least. Might have to hire some expensive people that will know the process
How much are you seriously looking to invest?
The manufacturing scale required for something like this to be competetive with other established manufacturers is likely high. Would probably have pump out tens if not hundreds of kilometers of canvas per day to be anywhere near China pricing
The Epson Resin heads are not throwaway, the are piezoelectric just like the solvent ones and not thermal like HP. Supposed to last a couple years and that is what users are seeing. $700 user replaceable is a big plus
What material are you having the issue with? I only had one scuff error and it was due to a little edge tunnel on the media I didn't notice when loading
I would run into an issue I would describe as ink starvation in production mode and matte speed on darker areas (when my heads didn't have any missing nozzles). Every 5 or so feet there would be half a pass that was just slightly lighter than the rest like not enough ink is getting to the heads...

The listed price on some oracal stuff is pretty crazy but can be discounted pretty good if you ask for discount.
I think these companies like fellers and grimco list some oracal high to push their house brands
Weeding goes faster with experience, I have 2 workers that have been weeding for 10 years and there is nothing they can't handle and they go pretty fast even with small stuff.
This is why in most cases you see small labels printed on clear vinyl and applied as a rectangle/square instead of cut...
I'm lucky enough to be a 10 minute drive from Fellers, Grimco and GSG, Lindenmeyr and a few others so on the rare occasion I run out of something I can get same day, but very rare I need something that fast.
Visual system works pretty good for me but I probably use under 10 materials
