This is my list of printmaking press recommendations. It is not a list of every press available, but I considered most of these presses when I was shopping around for mine. I did add a couple printing presses that I have since learned about in the last year. Let me know in the comments if you own one of these or a different press, and how you like it or any issues you may have with it. Thanks for watching, cheers!
