I could hardly contain myself when I saw the notification pop up with this vlog and I absolutely was NOT disappointed! The printer is gorgeous and it works soooo smoothly, quickly, and very efficiently from the looks of it! The die cuts look great and even if they are just test prints, they look simply ADORBS! For you all to be so excited and for Dean to essentially watch the printer/cutter head go back and forth as though he was entranced by a BBC Nature episode with David Attenborough, I was loving it! Being able to have something that gives you such endless creative freedom is both mind blowing and incredibly exhilarating for artistic minds and visions, and now that you have that free reign capability, that's going to make your desire to create even MORE intense! Can't wait for the larger die cuts and some of the glossy/embossed items! The next range is going to be simply magical, just like all of the others of course, but now it'll be with your own machine making the magic happen within your own studio! So freaking exciting!
Hehehe oh my goodness thank you so much! ❤❤❤❤ it cute wo fast 😮 Dean sits there and watches it 😂 we’re all fascinated! Now we just need to get to grips on how to use and run it efficiently hehehe thank you so much for the encouragement and support! You da best! ❤
I could not have clicked quicker. I’ve been waiting all day for this vlog. I’ve been watching you for so long that this feels like watching a good friend take the next big step in their business. I wish I could take you out for dinner to celebrate. It’s been amazing to watch as your business has grown.
Hehehe oh my gooodness thank you so so much 🥹🌷🥹🌷🥹🌷 thank you for being on the journey with me too 🥹🌷 it means so much! YOUD A BEST! Excited for the next chapter now! Hehee
Ha! I love the shot of you, dean & mike around the new printer. So cute to see you taking it all in! Can't wait to see what you get up to with this new gadget of yours! 👏
Great seeing your growth and evolving business! Teachers (especially in the U.S.) would love those giant sticker sheets to decorate their classroom door and announcement boards.
I LOVE the borderless Bumblebutt sticker on the rocket!!!! I think you can get away with the details by making the purple border a little thicker. I think it's so unique and it would be worth it without a colored border! :D Anyway I'm super excited to see what you will create with this new machine, have fun!
Can't wait to see the pink wall and new signage! You could do big seasonal door decorations, like a massive Christmas tree with all the characters around it for winter. 🎄
I feel like Dean should name the Roland printer, I have a feeling that thing will end up being his new favourite toy! 😂 also you look absolutely stunning Catherine, you’re glowing! Have been following Katnipp for years now, it’s so exciting watching your business grow (even more!) and seeing the excitement from everyone about the new printer!
I was going to workout but nah, had to watch this first. So happy for you Catherine, Mike and Dean and thank you for sharing your journey with us. Love you!
Congratulations, Catherine! Amazing work! That printer is wicked 😎! Now try printing on real canvas roll for unframed artwork .... what do you think of that idea? Can the printer handle a real canvas roll?
Ah wow! Fair play and respect 🤗Really looking forward to see put this poppy to good use. A side note I was almost sure there was a drum roll when you were talking about the Rolland team installing your printer, it was so funny when you said it was Dean taking the bins 😂
The vlog we’ve been all waiting for! Why is a printer so flipping exciting 🤣🤣🤣 so pleased for you guys hope you’re having lots of fun with your new huge toy hehe
Now that is a printer! I love the potential that this will bring to your workflow - so many ideas. Best of luck to you all - hard work and dedication pays off and here is the proof. Exciting stuff.
Hey Kat, not sure if you're aware of this, but you can link and share access of a drive (virtual, internal, or external) to any computer on the same network. Any additions/removals/changes made will be reflected on other computers who are connected to it. So for example, if you're at your main computer and you add a new drawing to your external drive, you can go to the laptop and pull it up immediately without having to lug your external back and forth and risk corrupting your data. This is how my company shares data between multiple departments that work both remotely and in-office. It's so convenient being able to access everything at any computer instead of having to figure out what is saved on what or who has access to it.
Congratulations on the new printer Catherine! It's so exciting to see all of the possibilities of what you can make on it. Loved the giant sticker sheet!
One thing I can tell you from many years of experience is that when it comes to consumables such as ink, it is best to use the official ink specified by the manufacturer.🖨💗😉Japanese manufacturers take their products seriously and make them for the people who use them, so they are highly reliable!💝🇯🇵✨🩷
Hi C. Congratulations!! The new printer is fantastic. I was thinking that you can even start a sub-division of Katnipp where you offer printing services to local businesses which could really help during slow seasons and really help small businesses making Katnipp a community ambassador. Dean seems keen on the printer and could run the sub-division. Just a thought...
Gosh, this is all SO exciting! I'm a teeny bit sad that you've had to cancel Japan (as I'd love another vicarious trip! 😆) but it's completely understandable! Wishing you ALL the success! 🧡 🧡 🧡
I love your work Catherine and you have inspired me as an illustrator for so long and as a small business. I do wish however that you would use your platform that you’ve built to support humanitarian issues that are occurring at the moment. You could help educate so many people with your following and help to bring these atrocities to an end. If we all collectively come together we can all enjoy a better livelihood. Hope you can have a think about this.
Congratulations 🎊 exciting times. I didn’t read through the comments, so perhaps someone else have suggested this. For the rolls of vinyl, I thought of instead of standing upright in tubes, what about a dowel system like fabric stores use for upholstery? On a smaller scale it reminds me of ribbon storage. Good luck with it all 🍀😊
For the rolls of paper, you could just get some large pvc pipes cut to the needed height, then cut an angled piece off the top to make it easier to remove the paper. Put end caps on the bottoms and then you could string a few together and hang them on the wall.
Amazing!! You’ve inspired me hugely to open up an etsy store and just go for it❤ It’s a slow burner atm but we have to start somewhere and I know how hard you’ve worked to get to where you are today ❤❤
I would be having too much fun with that printer!!!!! I'd be sitting there just like Dean watching it go! Haha! Being kept up imagining all the possibilities at night is unavoidable, isn't it?! 😅
I am so happy and smiling ear to ear!! Congratulations Catherine and Katnipp Team!! That is on amazing machine, does everything but the kitchen sink! Can't wait to see the signs you make with it as well as how you decorate your studio. LOL!, I lol when you said "blasphemy" for not painting a pink wall yet.... you're right!! lol!
I've been waiting for this video!!! I may have squealed with excitement! So excited for you and I'm looking forward to seeing all that you do with "Rolando!" Haha! I thought hey why not name the printer after the home for the happiest place on earth! Haha!
I got u super early just to watch this (I'm from Melbourne Australia) because I've been so excited and so invested in this journey! I've followed u from the start and have loved loved loved watching ur growth and progress. I'm so proud of you, dean and Mike for all ur hard work and ideas. I am so excited for more longer videos of seeing all the ideas u come up with from using ur new printer. You guys deserve this so much and wishing u all the best
I am so incredibly excited for u guys!! This is such a huge step, and i think its gonna be so worth it! Super excited to see what the future of katnipp will bring!
This is so exciting! Also not sure if you looked into it, but if the windows laptop and your macs are on the same local network you should be able to transfer files that way and you wouldn't need to run back and forth with an extra hard drive every time you get a new sticker design to print!
Wide format printing can be very fun. At work I only name printers and machinery that have acted up due to age or malfunction…they end up on my no-no list. 😂
FYI to all that see this - if you’re getting a tutorial on equipment, take out your phone (or whatever) and video tape the session. You’ll have a record of what you will need to do in future.
For the rolls to stand up maybe you could get some wine racks ! the ones that are like triangles to stack up the bottles originaly but use them up right ! You could even maybe stack them up to secure even more the rolls ! Just a random idea that popped into my head while wtaching the video xD
I love seeing your business succeed and grow! Congratulations on the new printer! I can’t wait to see what all you do with it. An idea: You should print a vinyl wrap for the printer laptop. You could probably modify one of the mat designs to fit it.
Congratulations Catherine! How about "Rory" for the printer's name? Looking forward to all of the wonderful designs/products you will be creating with this new tool.
Loving this series of the printer behind the scenes, I'm such a tech geek so this stuff makes me happy Also question I missed it, but when/why did you move from your last studio? It looked so big, fun and creative ❤
I could see you doing mural stickers for nurseries and children’s rooms too 😊. Scenes like your gaming mouse mats.
Oh my goodness YESS ❤❤❤ this is the first thing I thought! 🥲🌷🌷🌷🫣 a little world of katnipp everywhere hrhe ❤❤❤❤
That's a very good idea for her Lovely 🥰 Xx
As someone with a newborn little girl I totally agree ❤️

The cleaning cartridge can be used to unblock and coagulation ink in the tubes if you ever leave the printer sitting unused for any length of time.
Congratulations on your new huge printer! Have fun making your wonderful stickers, posters, and other magical things. 🤗
Hehehe aww thank you! Hehe. 🌸🌸🌷🥹

You’ve inspired me hugely to open up an etsy store and just go for it❤
It’s a slow burner atm but we have to start somewhere and I know how hard you’ve worked to get to where you are today ❤❤
I’m so happy for you friend!
can you please share a tutorial of you or a video adding the white offset of your stickers!? ps the stickers are phenomenal! ❤
I would be having too much fun with that printer!!!!! I'd be sitting there just like Dean watching it go! Haha! Being kept up imagining all the possibilities at night is unavoidable, isn't it?! 😅

Eeeek thank you so much! ❤ I know I really can’t believe we have no pink wall yet! 😅❤ it is not acceptable! 😂❤
19:22 I like the ones without the white border
So inspirational! Thank you!
So good ❤
I've been waiting for this video!!! I may have squealed with excitement! So excited for you and I'm looking forward to seeing all that you do with "Rolando!" Haha! I thought hey why not name the printer after the home for the happiest place on earth! Haha!
Roly Poly 😅
Gosh, Kai's voice is so hypnotic, I would have been nodding off instead of learning.
Hehehe 😂❤
the printer looks like a "tyson" . I can't wait to see what cuteness you will create with it. ❤😊 xx
I'm so excited for you!!
Love your videos!!
Congratulations on the new printer! I am so happy for you💖

Congrats on the machine. Hope to get one myself one day. Goals.

Eeekekekeke thank you so much! ❤❤❤❤ I can’t wait to share the experiments and the journey of using it with you!
Wide format printing can be very fun. At work I only name printers and machinery that have acted up due to age or malfunction…they end up on my no-no list. 😂
I can’t wait to see what you make!!!
FYI to all that see this - if you’re getting a tutorial on equipment, take out your phone (or whatever) and video tape the session. You’ll have a record of what you will need to do in future.
So excited for you xx
For the rolls to stand up maybe you could get some wine racks ! the ones that are like triangles to stack up the bottles originaly but use them up right ! You could even maybe stack them up to secure even more the rolls ! Just a random idea that popped into my head while wtaching the video xD
Congratulations to Katnipp Studio on your new printer! How about the name Rutherford? Or Rex? Cheers! ❤
I love seeing your business succeed and grow! Congratulations on the new printer! I can’t wait to see what all you do with it.
An idea: You should print a vinyl wrap for the printer laptop. You could probably modify one of the mat designs to fit it.
That is a great idea 🌷🥹🌷🥹🌷🥹🌷🥹

How exciting guys! I’m so happy for you and all these new possibilities for your business 😍🥰

I like Ronnie! You could also do roni pronounced ro nee I feel it goes with Roland!
Make sure you wedge the laptop on the top of the printer as old laptop get really hot, just a heads up
Wooooaaaahhh big printer. Scary and exciting.
The Roland seems so intimidating but it’s so exciting! Also! Where did you get your iPad case from? I love it!
I always buy old laptops they work great for everything. Never have bought new😅😅😅😅 CONGRATULATIONS ❤❤❤❤
would that mean you could do that easy peel as well?
Big Bertha seems appropriate for the name
OOOOH congrats on the new hardware! :D Does that thing do all-in-one kiss-cuts then perf on the outer edge?
