Lmao. Today's lesson: Don't trust ANY vendors / "manufacturers" from Indonesia.

651 is NOT wrap film. Solid color wrap films will come in 60" wide rolls. Product lines from the big 3 will be: 3M 2080 Avery SW900 Oracal 970RA Plus all the other off-brands.

Mind elaborating on that a bit? I've consider adding fume extraction to our UCJV / Epson printers but not super excited about cutting holes in them, and always wondered what that air flow would do in terms of static / ink spray etc. Thanks!

Laminated? Inkset used? The fact that it's only having issues sticking to itself tells me something's up with either the laminate or ink.

What did you use for application fluid? What kind of clear vinyl did you use and is it solvent or water based adhesive? Do you have the option to mount with a laminator? This will eliminate the liquid stains and most issues related to wet-mounting to acrylic/glass. Takes a LONG time for the...

On what kind of substrate???? Try harder.

Thanks for the tips guys. Whole thing took less than an hour and turned out good, customer is happy. Used my trusty Milwaukie M18 hammer drill and clear silicone. I guess it was just a thin skimcoat of stucco over plywood so it drilled pretty easily with a masonry bit. Didn't have to worry...

That's what I was wondering, if they're going to make them disposable/consumable like HP or make them just as durable but easier to replace. (I also haven't read the article about it so they may address those issues)

Looks interesting. Don't love the idea of stocking 11 different inks but hitting 99% of pantones would be nice. Does this make this the first user replaceable solvent printer on the market?

We let ours accumulate for 5+ years then hire a company to come dispose of it properly. Was a big ordeal, tons of paperwork, and cost us $500+ CDN to get it done.

Does Dubai painting services do a lot of work in the US? :roflmao:

This is what I was getting at, thanks for saying it so nicely.

Ah sorry I just assumed it was a roll to roll printer for some reason. Makes perfect sense. We've also got an aging flatbed and should probably be doing what you're doing with the white.....hardly gets used these days and the nozzles can be a b*tch to get back when you need it.

That's a lot of wasted ink/media/time...........probably overkill unless you have an aging machine that isn't capping properly. Have you ever tried not doing this every day? As long as your head(s) are capping properly and have some sort of automatic routine maintenance schedule, chances are...

I'm sure I'm overthinking this, but do you guys have any pointers for installing Gemini letters w/ studs into stucco? Letters are 1" thick, 16" high so they'll have a bit of weight to them. (mockup attached) Any specific drill bits and silicone/adhesive I should try to use? Should be simple...

First picture looks like ink starvation, second and third pictures look like material contamination to me. What does your test print/nozzle check look like?

Mind sharing what kind of monitor you got? I should probably get one of these and get some more air exchangers happening in here. Pretty bad when all the printers are going.

Correct.
