Lovely to see the risograph put to such good use
ReplyDeleteo mi! dear Sue...
ReplyDeleteI showed a lot of negative attitude to the risograph machine that day! Electro-high expectations of a machine that just needs a bit of patient acceptance. It pulled and choked a good 25% of our paper stock, but we just managed to make our edition of 100 pamphlets.
I take back my 'never using again' rant. Like all the best things.. recognising the quirks and learn to live and love em. The risograph was the perfect experiment for mine and nina's experimental perfect.
