  1. Canon Colorado 1650 Vertical Banding - Canon no solution?

    Run the material though the printer the other way, rotated 90 degrees to see if the pattern direction changes to rule out material. You can splice in a rotated section of material onto the roll to test
  2. Canon Colorado 1650 Vertical Banding - Canon no solution?

    Do you only see that in matte mode? Have you tried different "strategies" What material is that in the picture? I've seen stuff like on on certain materials and I think it has something to do with the material surface

  4. 64Inch Roll-to-Roll Laminator with Rear Cutter

    I bought direct on Alibaba and it was half the price of what you might pay with a US distributor
  5. Solventinkjet.com review - Bad print head.

    It's a 15 year old printer, how long do you plan on keeping it running?
  6. Solventinkjet.com review - Bad print head.

    Too many other factors/variables and too much time has passed to put all the blame on the head distributor imo
  7. Solventinkjet.com review - Bad print head.

    What kind of inks are you running. I would say 2 years is reasonable, lots of factors could affect head life. Is this head in a 15+ year old printer?

    Yea but it takes under a minute to mount a 4x8 on flatbed table. Again if you're doing a sheet here and there idk how much time you're saving and if you are doing more then there are probably better flatbeds available in this price range

    Wouldn't UV be more desirable for the higher value applications?

  11. News HP Latex R530

    So let's say you save 15 cents/sq ft on vinyl printing direct and a few dollars in mounting labor per 4x8 ft board . This hp printer is 90k, so you'll have to print a couple hundred thousand square feet of rigid before you come out ahead vs doing on roll2roll. Again this is keeping in mind...

    Seems like a roll2roll printer + an application table would be a better and much cheaper way for doing rigid in low volume without any sacrifices on roll printing

    Why is the cutter in image positional backwards
  14. Laminating ucjv300 print without heat

    Laminate it and see how it goes, probably won't have any problems. Little bit of silvering around the raised ink will go away overtime
  15. FC9000 - Media lock issue

    Ok I just hold the roll with my right hand and pull will left. I guess good feature for someone short that can't reach over the machine
  16. FC9000 - Media lock issue

    I've been using Graphtecs for 15 years and have never used that, I've seen the lock on my FC9000 but never even got curious enough to figure out what its for. What's it for?

    Here is how to do it in photoshop, super easy maybe coral has a similar "warp" tool
  18. Convincing a customer that their file is low resolution

    Run it through Topaz ai and it will probably be good enough
  19. Sticker/decal production cost

    Load printer, laminator cutter, I can do in under 10 minutes per roll. Ideally you want to have enough work where you can do whole rolls at a time, way more efficient than doing this 10 min labor to load printer, laminator, cutter for 50 sticker order. I'll even wait until I have a full rolls...
  20. Sticker/decal production cost

    All of this depends on a lot of factors but you can easily be under $1 per sqft materials/ink cost and sell that for $15+/sq ft for lower quantities (sticker mule prices for qty of 100) all the way down to $3/sq ft or lower for quantities of 10k , 100k etc Think of it in terms of rolls, how...
