Gocco printers for sale at Paper Source!

June 20, 2007 at 5:34 am | In I love to make things..., crafty to buy, new writing! |

My friend Megan tipped me off to the big news that after a long and uncertain drought, Gocco printers and supplies will be available at Paper Source here in the US as of June 22! You can also pre-order any Gocco item by calling 888.727.3711. I’m not sure which printer model they’re selling, but since it costs $395 I’m assuming it’s a fancier/larger-print model. I have a plain B6 that I love to pieces but it doesn’t have any bells and whistles (like mechanisms to set the paper exactly the same way every time you print, which would be nice). They also have tons of ink colors, plus bulbs and screens, so you can restock all your supplies, too.

Anyway, to celebrate I thought I’d link the ever-wonderful Gocco flickr group and post a photo of my very first Gocco screens from last year: skeletons and scissors!

I liked the designs so much that I turned them into the sugar-scrub jar labels for my CRAFT: 03 how-to article, “Balms and Bubbles”:

So if you’ve been hoping to get your very own Gocco printer, looks like now is the time!

I called Paper-Source and they said they will be getting some of the smaller ones later in the summer. They also said that they would have some stock for a while.

OMGOODNESS! I wrote almost the same post and have it saved in my drafts, yet to be published. ACK! FUNNY!

LOVE gocco… but I want that not-so-cheap on too. I may have to get a starter version to easy my pain for it. And stare at that flickr group too! Great stuff on there!

Um, Paper Source does not actually have any printers yet, and their ink colors are quite limited. Please see my US website, http://northwoodstudios.tripod.com, for great selection, service, and pricing. We’re also looking for gocco arts to link - email us! Cheers, Judy

Hi all,

I’m actually in the process of shutting down my letterpress/papermaking and bookbinding shops and in my clean up, I’ve found a Gocco printer, loads of screens, bulbs and ink, ink and more ink.

The Gocco unit itself was hardly used. I think we did maybe three projects on it?

Any one interested, please email me at mce@dhproductions.net. I’ll have photos of the stuff posted this coming weekend at http://www.dhproductions.net then click link to Equipment for Sale.

Happy printing!
MC
