  1. Eco-solvent vs. Latex

    Steer clear of the Epson. Great concept but they are extremely flawed.
  2. Recommendation for permanent wall vinyl decal

    I have had good results with General Formulations vinyl. Much to choose from. Never had much of an issue with curling.
  3. How young is too young

    Congrats! The next few months you will be in survival mode.....it gets much better though....until they start walking.....then your really in trouble. :)
  4. Mutoh maintenance station / Cap top?

    I have found that most maintenance stations last a very long time if you replace the cap every so often and clean the tubes about every six months. To clean the tubes just pour the cleaning solution of your choice (not alcohol - makes most eco's clump up) into the cap until it looks like its...
  5. Replaced Sub Tank Valves on VJ1604 Sub tanks not refilling.

    That was my next suggestion....it is messy but that's what does the trick...glad you got it working.
  6. Replaced Sub Tank Valves on VJ1604 Sub tanks not refilling.

    Do you see the air in the line between the cartridges and the valves or between the valves and the subtanks?
  7. Church Pricing?

    Being a Christian I have found the best way to deal with other Christians in a business environment is just like everyone else. Unfortunately, most don't practice what they preach and have to be treated like "godless heathens." :smile:
  8. Yellow ink cartridges emptied out on the floor!

    What model printer?
  9. Boss wants me to flush out our bulk ink system - black tank/head only. Please help.

    I take two lint free clothes and fold them over together twice then soak them in cleaning solution (sometimes I even use Acetone) then place them on the capping station so when the head is placed back over the capping station it sits right on cloth. If there is any build up inside the nozzles it...
  10. Boss wants me to flush out our bulk ink system - black tank/head only. Please help.

    Have you tried a night long head soak? I would try that before you begin flushing anything.
  11. VJ 1614E strange printing problem

    Charcoal lighter fluid.....Kingsford to be exact. We use the odorless but I dont think it matters.
  12. VJ 1614E strange printing problem

    I have found that the best cleaner for the rollers is lighter fluid. You don't have to apply much friction to get the "gunk" off and it doesn't break them down. We have this problem from time to time and cleaning the rollers with lighter fluid fixes it right up.
  13. Questions for Those Who Have Latex Printers

    I run a lot of flexible magnetic material on my Mutohs mostly with a thickness of .030". HP says that the max thickness for the HP 300 series is .020". If they tell you .020" I am willing to bet .030" would work. Anyone have any experience in this area?
  14. why are magnetics sticking to car paint?

    We buy all our magnetic material from Magnum Magnetics and we have only had a few issues with the magnet sticking to cars. Each time it was an issue of the customer never removing the magnet.
  15. 1604 pump problem

    Pump and lines both replaced last week. The lines are clear because when the head moves to the left and it starts pumping to clear the lines any residual ink in the drain lines gets sucked through. The lines are clear. The pump works fine because I switched swapped it into another printer and it...
  16. 1604 pump problem

    Happy Monday everyone! Here is the problem. When I go to do a cleaning or ink charge (either little or normal), the maintenance assembly works like it supposed to except when it goes to actually try and pull ink through the pump. There is a single click and nothing happens and a few seconds...

    Welcome from Winston-Salem, NC (USA)!
  18. VJ-1624 Service Manual

    Anyone have a service manual for the 1624 or knows where to get one on the cheap? Thanks!
  19. Looking for a Hot Laminator

    We run a Seal EP42 (42" wide). It can be a bear getting new rolls on just right but does a wonderful job laminating. Heat goes up to 320F.
  20. VJ-1204 Ink Smart Card, Chip fix

    I am going to second what Fatcat said. We are using the same bulk system from Nite that he is and I am kicking myself for not switching to it sooner. I will say that if you purchase it directly from Nite you will get a much better deal than buying it from a distributor here in the US/Canada. The...
