Canvas Material Suggestions

Good economical! That's like a cold hot cup of coffee.

What kind canvas? Canvas can be made from anything, most commonly cotton, linen, polyester, acrylic, and PVC. Hemp is still used in many areas. Often clients will want "canvas" because it does not look like greasy vinyl, and it is used in fine arts painting. Poster shops and fine art print shops use a canvas textured vinyl to simulate the look of fine arts Belgian linen.
For most outdoor applications, cotton and linen will deteriorate quickly (why they used hemp for sails and ropes). Coated cotten is available, but not recommended for outdoor use. A modern standard for outdoor use is woven acrylic (Sunbrella), which requires screen printing or specialty printing methods.
Textured vinyl may be what you are looking for. Or perhaps coated cotton or polyester (commonly used for interior giclee printing).
Use dye-sub inks for printing directly on uncoated fabric. Won't hold up outside, but may be perfect for your needs, and your machine will do it.
All of these media choices give you a range of options. You need to decide which features and benfits are needed for a specific project, then choose your media.
