Call a roland tech and save the headache. The money you are losing by not having a machine up and running already could have been countered by the money you are going to make printing tomorrow.

Why not use 3164 Oracal? It's not removable but it'll hold up just fine short (and medium) term.

Rapid tac II is the best thing that ever happened to wet vinyl installs. I installed over 100yards of vinyl on the outside of a building last week in 50 degree pouring weather and was pulling hightac masking tape off after a minute or two with no problems at all!

I'll call you shortly Mark.

like everyone else said. We print to vinyl, apply to mag. Not only is the mag material heavy, but rarely will you find a magnet with a face stock that prints as well as actual vinyl.

use this for handout cheap decals....or buy a brand new roll for $100

hahaha why didn't you call them first? You wasted $130 in ink.....That sucks. Sorry to hear.

ahhhh Looks like I'm requesting some matte vinyl samples and going to throw those through the beast. We'll see what happens. I printed some matte BANNER material yesterday for the first time and it looked nice and bold compared to our gloss sign vinyl....that's what originally got me thinking.

If you have cleaned your encoder strip, done an environmental match, slowed down the cut speed and still have issues with alignment (after aligning again).....You may want to check into the carriage cable tension. Our cuts were ONLY off in the center and on the left and we put about 1/4-1/2...

I leave our printer with main power on....sub power off....It WILL go to sleep automatically if you have that setting enabled, but ours still powers on periodically to do a quick cleaning and then turns itself back off.... as long as the MAIN power is left on, you're ok.

Roland OEM...not going to cheap out on ink after spending $XX,XXX on a printer...that's like running unleaded fuel vs super in a ferrari.

is a #2 grommet the typical size that comes in the pre made banners??

nevermind...

Hey guys we just got into banners and found a REALLY nice banner material that prints great but now our next assignment is finding a decent tool to set grommets....UNDER $150.... Do you guys have any good suggestions?? Matt

So I've been printing and handling gloss product all my (printing) life. But lately I feel like printed matte vinyl has such a more expensive and deep look to it vs glossy printed vinyl. So the million dollar question...Are you or your sign shop using GLOSS or MATTE vinyl to print on? No...

I had this problem once and fixed it first try....You need to go into your RIP computer's power settings and make sure the hard drive NEVER turns off....our computer went to sleep and stopped sending info to the printer. Ruined one print, figured it out and never dealt with it again :)

WOW sorry I didn't see your other threads or I would have helped you. I usually get away with 120-125 grams as well, but cut at 13 cm/sec and have perfect results....this is with a blade from cleancutblade.com (This is also on sp-300v)

Alcohol only. Is it 3/8" off all the way across the printer or just on the far end of the parking station? What's your cut speed?? I changed mine down to about 13 (ya, slow) but my cuts are spot-on even after a 10foot section of little stickers. I don't mind waiting the extra cut time if I...

If it's 222 and 223 those are general forumations vinyl series numbers...both 6mil!

I agree those both look great without the oval. They seem a bit limited
