We screen print these on .055 polyethelene and sell them in dozens. Our price is $4.50 each including hardware, but we make a healthy margin because of the quantity we print. I bet on average we print 100-200 a week. It is mostly just filler work between large jobs.

This will be our sole machine. I bought it under the impression that it is a quality built machine that produces fantastic images. I did some research and weighed my options between this machine and the mutoh, then pulled the trigger on the epson. Now I am questioning myself, did I make the...

I have purchased this printer, but it is still sitting in our loading dock and I am starting to have second thoughts. We are scheduled to have it installed the week of August 10th and have plenty of time to send it back if necessary. Everything I have read had been good reviews up until now...

Thanks for the feedback, but not what I was hoping to hear. I guess the extended warranty is worth it. Anybody else having these problems?

We buy 25"x38"x.055 poly sheets buy the pallet. I would be more than happy to sell you the pieces needed. Just shoot me a pm.

Just purchased this printer yesterday and it should arrive mid next week. I have heard mostly good things, but are starting to worry about the tracking issues causing head strikes. Does anybody know what the cost of a head is? I was told mid 3k range, but want to know actual numbers from...

I am considering buying a Mutoh Value Jet 54" to replace the 2 old roll to roll printers we have now. We are not needing a whole lot of speed, but would like good quality prints. I like the idea of the 1 print head and the anti-banding wave pattern. The prints that I have seen from the Mutoh...

Good points. I cannot put enough emphasis on the pre-press work (proper art/film, quality screens, proper exposure when burning, etc.) when screen printing. Like G-artist said, anybody can learn to hand pull or push a button; but it takes time and lots of experience to develop a solid...

I recently had one of their sales reps call on me. Anybody ever used them or know anything about them?

How is the roll to roll on the printer? Any adhesion/cracking issues?

We have never farmed anything out until the last year or so. Its not something that we do a lot, but having a company that your comfortable with is key. We got burned once (infuriating) and learned from our mistakes. We now have a company that we trust, is close by and gets stuff done. Sorry...

Oh, sorry. Totally different ball game.

This is completely incorrect. We get around 350-400 hits per hour (and that is fast!). 3,000 pcs x 2 hits (2-sided)=6,000 hits. 6,000/400=15 hours of solid printing with no problems. To print 6000 hits in 4 hours, your are suggesting that somebody can print 1500 hits per hour which is...

Prices like that are not that crazy. It all depends on what your niche is. If you are a screen printer that is right up your alley. We screen print corrugated political signs all day, every day. There is a lower margin on those jobs because of the competitiveness, but it is still a healthy...

We have a 4'x8' automatic press that we use to print TONS of political signs/banners. We can crank out about 120-140 hits per hour depending on the temperature/humidity and ink system that we use. In fact, we just received our largest political order of the year on Friday. 1,000 4'x8's-1...

We screen print spot colors on the material with Nazdar's Flock Adhesive. As far as full color, I am not sure what method you would use.

We are tradittionaly a screen printing company, but have been in the digital market for about 10 years. With the flatbed market taking over screen printed short runs, we are looking for a flatbed that would fill this niche. We print a TON of corrugated and aluminum signs, but also print...

We do a lot of screen work (reclaiming/coating/burning) for local sign shop that uses a ink jet printer. It was sold as a film producing ink jet printer only. It works to an extent, but does not give you the results that you want. They can never get the ink dense/opaque enough to re-create a...

Wasn't looking to be a supplier, just looking to help out a fellow sign maker.

If you would like, we could produce film for you and ship it ups. If your interested, shoot me a pm for a price.
