Did you get an installation prep guide? The odor isn't terrible at all. We don't even notice it. We'll have it runnin all day. stacking 1000's of prints in a day. There are far worse smelling printers out there. 1 client moved from another printer to us, and immediately said our prints are...

You're looking at the wrong printer. The P700 is not built to turn over 100 posters a week. That's a consumer grade machine. You probably need a canon IPF or something like that.

Firstly. Your room needs an adequate amount of air changes per hour. It should be written in the preparation guide. That goes for all printers generally speaking. If we run any of our printers with our HVAC off (that bring in fresh air and removed old air) the room will smell up. When it's...

interesting workflow you have going on. Onyx is more printing now or getting ready to print. It's it wont work how you're doing it as that's more of a job manager sort of thing. Everything in the queue is to be printed. - open file - select quickset - send to printer. "Tab B" if it...

Not sure what you're doing to have 5 tabs open? With onyx, it's all about automation and a set workflow. Either you create quicksets and open your files with a quickset and it'll RIP the file and have it queued up ready for print. (Even easier, drag files to hot folder) Or you can open with...

you should consider paying someone to create some media profiles for you. Running around the internet looking for profiles and complaining there's none wont fix your issue. The longer you take trying to test profiles the more the printer sit there not producing work.

Though it was April 11 :p

doesn't google docs do dropdowns? In my spreadsheet, i have dropdowns of the stock, and vlookup gets the stock name and inputs a price in another cell. Easier than always writing the name.

250 jobs at once on a physical job board? Might be time to job management software.

The colorado is a great machine. It absolutely runs around any latex or solvent printers. You don't need huge room for it, but it helps with running finishing equipment. Ours has been flawless so far. some weeks it's running here and there, and some weeks we have it non stop all day. Good...

This can get complex. I believe excel is more powerful than google sheets though. You need to learn about VLOOKUP. You'd need to create a seperate page for "Data" and have your stock list there and formulas. have a dropdown box with vlookup. Some youtube videos and some hours later you...

They're both good. For any reconciliation, you can download Onyx X21 30 day trial and try it out with no limitations.

+1 for keeping the vid uploaded. I'd tune in, but i think it starts at 7am here.

Strange. I would get the profile from a working machine and install it on the problematic machine and see if it's any different. It looks like the clear has not had enough time to settle.

FYI I have never used a mimaki. How does the clear channel work? On the Oce/Canon Arizonas, the clear is printed without curing, left to settle to smooth out, then goes back over to cure it. Because that looks like it's printed and cured in the same pass? maybe that's the issue?

Photos usually help. If there's no banding in any other channel, id look at redoing the alignments. may have been something you've missed.

Thanks for everyone's suggestions to that they'd like to learn, The reason why i was asking is that i've been recording some tutorials for our clients that i'll be posting on our website and youtube. So i thought i'd extend it to helping others in print by going over some of our practices we...

Being German, i think it'll be great!. We gave it a quick service, oil and grease etc. very basic internals. i've ran a few jobs on it, no issues. I'll probably get the spare blade sharpened and use it for a few years or so.

this is the one with the electric clamp and blade. just a manual backplate. basically good enough for most jobs. For what i paid for it, it wouldn't pay for a new mechanical one..So im wrapped!

From my time being around this forum, There's a lot of questions asked, some more than others. in saying that, What is 1 topic you'd like to learn or learn more about in the print industry? Pricing? Colour managing? Printing & matching spot colours? Client / Job management? What else??
