Mafrica – Printing Hiccup

Major edit to previous post…

We hit a bit of a snag on our recent Mafrica print run. In short the resulting prints were not as expected.
I’ll skip all the technical details, but needless to say, a software (or driver) update somewhere along the line appears to be the culprit.

This picture shows the problem.

Left: what the print should look like. The Right: as printed.

After several longish phone conversations, we were resolved to go the long nasty route to settle the issue. But, within 10 minutes of my last call, the owner of the printing company called me to say that he will take care of this problem.

So, now I’m happy to say that we still have a printer and that we will be receiving a new set of maps late next week.

We are sorry this has taken so long, but now you can see why we didn’t want to charge folks before we had good prints in hand.
Thank you to all who wrote in to pre-order, you should have your maps in hand before the 15th of January (overseas deliveries will take a little longer)
