Can anyone help me with a design for stripe work graphics on a 1981 Chevy Van Beauville Day van with side windows. I realise this is a big want but I don't come across these vehicles much in the UK. The colour of the van is metallic blue and the only request is for white, silver and yellow...

Also the read error could be a problem with the chip readers. These are a common failure and I have replaced loads on mine. SC

Capping station problem. Easiest thing to do is replace the complete maintenance station especially if the head is new. SC

I I now have my new rf-640 printer and GR2 640 plotter installed. I have to admit how much easier the versa RIP is to work than onyx. Also the plotter is basically a rebranded Chinese GCC which are not the best but it seems to work and track OK even though the alignment marks on the front are...

I am still waiting for a response from Mutoh US, Europe & Japan after 10 weeks!! I tested Roland Customer Service and they had contacted me within 5 minutes! The amount of profiles kind of swayed the deal as it covered every one of the materials/manufacturers we use.

Will do it is to be installed next week. Loads of profiles and backup directly from Roland. Unlike other manufacturers!

Yours is the later dampers with the plastic fittings. They should just unscrew the same. If you have a new damper you will see it is threaded. You can see the green 'O' ring. SC

Sadly this is the deal I have been given and I realise the Summa is the one to have, but the budget is not there. I personally don't think the Graphtec machines are as good as they use to be. Has anyone got this printer? SC

I am getting a New VersaEXPRESS RF-640 and matching CAMM-1 GR2-640. Has anyone experience/advice with these machines? Thanks SC

The damper have a brass fitting on them and they just unscrew by hand. There should be a small rubber seal that seals the line. SC

We had a new Mutoh Xpertjet 1641SR installed 3 months ago after running (and still operating) a Mutoh 1604 for 14 years . Due to the complete lack of support from either Mutoh Europe, US or Japan and a supplying dealer with limited knowledge (probably caused by Mutoh) the machine is being...

Still got my 1604 in our workshop. Might be bringing it back into the print room.

I would check their is ink flowing through the ink tank solenoids. As the lines at the top are from the ink cartridges and the lower ones are into the subtanks (you can see the subtanks behind). I have changed my solenoids twice in the 14.5 years I have had my VJ1604. I managed to clean them...

OK the technician has been and spent the entire day and a lot more trying to fix faults. On the printer the only thing he could find was the bi-directional alignment was way out and this has helped big time printing on their polymeric material. I have not touched any alignments as I felt it was...

Yes I did get samples from a 1641SR before purchasing. Biggest issue is that none of the big material manufacturers have profilled for this machine and some of them have said they are not going to. Due to the lack of them sold. I cannot think their should be such a large issue with this as it is...

I don't want to adjust the bidirectional printing as it is not doing this over the length of the print. As I am getting a technician over next week. I have also noticed the encoder disk on these machines is no longer enclosed like the valuejet machines. Which will surely have further issues with...

Well I have cleaned the encoder and it has improved the print slightly but their are still blurring across the print in areas. Vacuum is almost on full and the material is flat going through the printer. Their is still too much ink being placed down as blacks and darker prints are flowing into...

I purchased the machine of Grafityp in the UK. I am using Onyx 21 as my RIP We do not use Grafityps materials and tend to sway to 3M, Avery and Oracal print medias. All of Grafityps profiles are very similar except for heat setting and all use Effect Fine & Fog 3, which is the slowest effect...

I have had to try and alter profiles before and when you start moving ink levels and other parts of generic profiles some colours are altered and some stay the same. I was originally told years ago to only use material manufacturers profiles that are specific. I do not have enough time in my...

I purchased a new Mutoh Xpertjet 1641SR two months ago to replace our 14 year old Mutoh Valuejet 1604. This so far has turned into the biggest issue ever even though basically it is still based on the original Valuejet. Their are very little print profiles for this machine from such suppliers as...
