  1. Repeated Reseat Printhead Error - HP700W

    No luck here. Diagnostics points to something causing a printhead to overheat. Trying to get a tech now to come out.
  2. Repeated Reseat Printhead Error - HP700W

    Had a head strike and now the machine is repeatedly asking me to reseat and/or replace printhead 8 Y/M. I have replaced with a brand new printhead as well as cleaned contacts with isopropyl. Still getting error, even after reboot. Does anyone have any ideas before I start taking things apart...
  3. Buying A Sign Business

    What equipment is part of the deal? How old is it? Is any of it leased? Has it been maintained and in good working order? Id personaly be wary of any machines more than 4-5 yrs old. If possible have a tech check out the machines and see where they stand.
  4. HP 700W profile creation and Flexi

    Thanks, but I am only seeing one value on the printer, there is nothing showing a "side B" on the printer unless im missing something.
  5. HP 700W profile creation and Flexi

    Thanks for clarifying. In my case im not intending this to be backlit, but it will be applied to glass. I want the graphics to be the same density and color on both sides of the white. And I want that white to be as opaque as possible. I am trying to avoid having to do a 5 layer print as...
  6. HP 700W profile creation and Flexi

    I noticed something today when I created a 3 layer sandwich profile. When I go to select the newly created profile in Flexi it created 2 of them with the same name except one of them has "side B" Whats the deal with "Side B" profile and when should I be using it? So say im setting up a layered...

  13. Blockout vinyl?

  14. Blockout vinyl?

    I have a huge project needing alot of blockout vinyl. Our standard blockout that we use is the 3M 3635-20B, but it appears that our vendors are completely out of stock and having a tough time getting any 3M blockout film to me in my needed timeframe. I am looking for alternatives for...
  15. Translucent vinyl lifting around panel edges

    It appears the retainer angle may be causing it as it looks like its being pulled in one direction. Perhaps its due to thermal expansion and contraction of the plastic vs aluminum? Or when they cranked down the screws it pulled on the vinyl?
  16. Latex Printer in apartment?

    You need to consider the power requirements. The 365 needs (2) 240v lines like the 700W does, correct? Also consider how you are going to get it into the room you would like, as its a big fat and awkward machine to get around tight corners and god forbid stairs.

  18. Prints on clear acrylic

    Glad to hear. I love 3M's 8150 for window graphics, but when I dont need crystal clear such as on backlit signage, I use IJ3630-114. 95% of the signage we produce are intended to be long-term/permanent. I personally havnt tried the 40c-10R clear yet, but i do run thru about 15 rolls of the...
  19. Prints on clear acrylic

    I ALWAYS start with it attached to the takeup reel. I generally print on 6 pass 8 color when no white ink is needed, I start at 194 degrees, may go down a degree or two. Vacuum is set to 20 and no interpass delay but will sometimes adjust that up to 300-600 if the ink does not seem to be...
