Ease Of Use:

We do include a basic ‘how to guide’ with each press but it’s super simple to get the gist of it straight away. Here’s a link to our Instagram where you can find a basic how to demo - Lulapress Instagram

Please give us a follow whilst you’re there!

Functionality & Features:

The Lulapress is best suited to lino printing on to paper* but copes brilliantly with fabrics (just keep the fabric nice and flat on the bottom press plate) Also great for Woodcut / letterpress - using the adjustment explained below.

*smooth paper that is not too thick (190gsm or thinner) works much better than textured papers.

Maintenance and Durability:

Our presses require minimum maintenance. We supply a mini tool kit with every press, which includes a 5mm Allen key and a 13mm spanner, for keeping all of the fixings nice and tight. We recommend keeping the press plates and press blanket as clean as possible. If you do need to order another press blanket, you can buy one here
