so does every other piece of electronics around you. you going to buy an iphone 3g and start using it?

It's slow enough to print a whole roll of stock overnight. Flex+ has its place. We're not upgrading ours. we don't have that niche

Lets start with this. What you're doing is illegal. Just like everything else, Cars, Bikes, computers etc, The all have a life. At the end of life, companies will not maintain the product. It's a waste for companies to continue to support a legacy product when they are using resources...

It now has 2 mirrors instead of 1, and from memory, it prints the gloss pass with the leading lamp on. and matte pass with the trailing lamp on. or something like that. it's done in layers.

It'd a physical upgrade for installed units. They add extra mirror and a few things. Comes with all new units. It prints at 7m2/h so it's the slowest speed. I think this gives the gloss layer enough time to smooth out before getting hit by the curing lamps.

It prints both matte and gloss in 1 pass.

Yeah we've seen them. Great if you have the application for it. Also prints extremely slow.

AS victor said. On the colorado - it's a production machine. Set up all your jobs in the rip. press print once. each time the machine prints a new job in its queue, it'll purge the heads. If it's printing it all at once, it'll purge only once.

It depends how you use it. We don't see it filling up as much as we consistently do full rolls. It'll purge after each print / job

what software is ran on it? How many printers running off it? Are you using it for anything else?

it was a wordpress file manager plugin. not sure which one.

I’ve been in your shoes. I know what that’s like. Leaving real colour management is your next step. As mentioned above. You can pay someone to do it for you and you’ll learn off them. Or buy the equipment to do it yourself and learn yourself. When I got into colour management, I first...

I dont understand. People will waste time tweaking the final file to get the colour output on their printer, but don't do basic colour management. I.e hire someone to profile your machine or buy a spectro and do it yourself. once your media is profiled, you'll never run into issues like...

photos help. What print speed you run the job on?

:popcorn:

The problem is a head alignment on the printer. Also, why don’t you print in quality layered mode? So it prints white and CMYK at once.

I got to see this in action at pac print last week. It’s a great entry machine -and it’s targeted for the entry market. It’s not going to have every feature. But the quality is great. It’s better than Rolland’s new flatbed.

This is usually done on your printer with a "Varnish / Clear" ink.

When you’ve been in the industry long enough, you know what to look for when judging print quality. You can’t tweak a profile to improve dot placement, or magically increase print resolution. And if you’re demoing a machine and it produces superb print quality, that means the one you buy...

Samples. Get samples…. We recently just had a printing trade show in Australia ( Pacprint) To my surprise Dirext Color Systems had a machine there. I picked up a sample. I saw the print quality. Let me tell you.. the dot placement was crap. I asked them what resolution the sample was...
