Excellent all round!
The test of a good supplier is how effectively it responds when things go wrong. In this regard Fotospeed is exemplary. It was no fault of theirs that a printer they supplied was dead on arrival but they managed to have it collected the next day and very promptly supplied an alternative. Excellent communications. Excellent all round.

Great communication
Very good communication and advice throughout the buying process and regular delivery information. I can’t comment on the printer as it has not been set up yet.

I have bought papers from Fotospeed many times. Easy to order, easy to download paper profiles and fast turnaround. Only complaint is the shipping costs are a little high.
