We don't own an inkjet machine, so I'm not too familiar with what can be done. I have a customer looking to have a 14" round logo printed so that it can be stuck on the inside of the glass. Is this possible? I've seen Stouse and other larger companies offering adhesive side printing when printing multiple (50 or more). Any help is appreciated.
Thanks Scott

That would be reverse printed on clear stock with a white overprint. So, only inkjets that have a white inkset can print your logo.
The other options are the Gerber Edge, but it has a max print width of 11.7", or screen printed.
I say your easiest, (ie. cheaoest), solution would be to talk your customer down a couple of inches and find someone with an Edge to print it.
Depending on the complexity of the logo, any solvent inkjet could reverse print on clear and you could cut the white backer from vinyl and apply it over the clear print.

Scott, if you have an inkjet printer but are unable to print a white backer with it, no worries.
Just print the image in reverse on your clear vinyl. Then spray the printed surface with white Krylon. Just make sure you spray an even coat. You'd be amazed at how well it works.
