^That 18 colour printer sounds like a monster Retlaw I've been to many modern printers (paper, not fabric) and seen 4, 5 and 6 colour presses which are huge. Do you recall roughly what size that would have been?

I think it was about 12' wide and 18' high, it was mainly circular in shape apart from the pedestle feet it stood on. which were an integral part of the casting, never saw it running, beats me how they put the cloth in to start it printing.
