  1. LEJ-640 FT UV Flatbed problems. Ending my silence

    All, All UV printers are susceptible to vertical banding. It is almost always a squareness issue between the rails and gantry. Think about the carriage moving in a slight s pattern. It then effects dot placement. I have seen it on HP's, Oce's, EFIs, and CET has about 20 printers in their...

  5. CET, Gerber, Roland Flatbed Question

    I am Artbot. It is an inexpensive head made by Ricoh for that purpose. It was commercialized last summer. It is an inexpensive head made for aqueous and solvent ink only, and is constructed out of plastic and silicon only (no metal). It is not supported for UV by Ricoh. It also does not have...
  6. CET, Gerber, Roland Flatbed Question

    A couple final notes: Mike, thanks for the mention. I need to get you to Atlanta, but I am guessing you will be writing profiles on a machine I sold shortly. The CET machines still use the gen 5 head. The gen 6 will be shown at Drupa for the first time next week. It will be given to OEMs to...
  7. CET, Gerber, Roland Flatbed Question

    execuprint, you do not need to change your filters that often, nor run at the speeds you are suggesting. I don't know which dealer you bought from, or if you bought before or after I left. I can probably give you a 100% refund toward a Vanguard true 4x8 flatbed. Call me when you have a moment...

  9. CET, Gerber, Roland Flatbed Question

    RJ, my partner and I had a disagreement about how to treat customers and employees. It happens in business partnerships. I started Vanguard so we could continue what I started at CET. At this point, all the key employees have moved from CET to Vanguard. I post on here so that all the people...

  16. New UV Flatbed Printer (Canon OCE Arizona GT460GT V/S Jetrix KX6D Flatbed)

    206XL 206XL, We are doing well, thanks for asking. The 4x8 has been well accepted, and with the leds, metal raster strip, new negative pressure system, as well as ionization bars, makes it a better printer than my old CET. Plus ink is half the price. Come see us at ISA. We will have a new...
  17. New UV Flatbed Printer (Canon OCE Arizona GT460GT V/S Jetrix KX6D Flatbed)

    Truecolors, are you an agent of CETCOLOR? A publicist for them? If not, can I ask your company name? If you are a PR person, you should say that, and pay the MM fee.
  18. Problems with Agfa Jeti 1224 HDC / Onyx

    Or, make sure you are running the same driver in the software. Different drivers can cause this.
  19. Problems with Agfa Jeti 1224 HDC / Onyx

    I don't see white on top of colors. If the profile is the same as the other customer, it is either an alignment issue (80%), or head and temperature issue. Dave
