The printer firmware requires that chips it thinks it can work with is what I was talking about. It would need to at minimum have the firmware set to one of the 6/7 color modes that it supports so that each individual channel can be addressed. If its setup for dual CMYK 4 color then the firmware...

Even if you have a RIP that will let you do it you will still need to swap chips on every cartridge to fool the printer since the printer itself will not accept an orange ink chip. So for example you might need to use orange in a slot that the printer itself "thinks" is black and put a black ink...

OEM parts too which are worth more.... there is a pretty active Mimaki group on FB where you could post that and find plenty of buyers for more than just the shipping.

Looks like the fiberglass body is outgassing which would mean its probably been poorly repaired and/or repainted and the fiberglass is no longer fully sealed.

For general use we keep a transit vinyl on hand. Transit vinyl is specifically for short term bus advertising and removes super clean and easy. The original transit vinyl is Busmark from Flexcon but most top brands also sell a specific one as well. Fellers even has a category "transit /...

If they state their inks are chemically compatible, just plug and play.... then I'd just check with them and make sure they guarantee no issues with mixing the inks. If so then just plug the new carts in and do half a dozen or so ink fills and go with it. That is what the vast majority do when...

If you are a sign company that has been in business for quite some time and regularly buying materials then your sales rep from your wholesale distributors "might" get you a 3M 2080 (or other brands) swatch book at no cost. Otherwise most suppliers do sell them...

Agree with the others... this is the norm for very big contracts. Many 6 figure and larger project will require days of work and 10+ page proposals to "maybe" get the high bid. Also stuff like 6 printed hard copies, 1 electronic copy in PDF format, price proposal as a separate document, etc. Do...

Layout is not terrible. Not a bad start for a first timer. The mistakes are really all just in install techniques. Even with the crap vinyl you could have gotten that on without wrinkles, bubbles, and perfectly straight. Just need to get some experience and learn some techniques. Typically if I...

Dual Eaton 9130, both with 3 EBM (extended battery modules). One is just for the printer, cutter, and RIP system. Nice if you are 10 feet into a 20 foot print on expensive 48" 3M 680 and it can finish the print... It can keep the printer and RIP going for about 45 minutes. The other keeps the...

I have an Edge LE in South Carolina I'd sell. Also have a bunch of ribbons to go with it. Problem would be the distance from you though.... I really do not want to try and box it up. It did run fine the last time I used it which was probably 5 years ago.

I have the full blown Production House 12.0.5 that I'd sell. I have both the installation software (with a ton of of the drivers) and the security dongle. I'd sell it for $650.

What jfiscus said.... To go further, no idea on latex inks but on solvent and ecosolvent inks they are by nature transparent. So for example if you print on clear vinyl, you can see right through the printed areas.

V3.30 attached..... good luck.

Agree with the others on edge taping.... trim it and add the tape. But yeah - if a customer gets graphics that they want to install themselves we always tell them that the warranty ends the second we hand them the material with a quick explanation why.

Even taking the end off the URL - the luhuhu domain by itself just redirects and forcibly downloads a .js Javascript file.... I'm taking it apart out of curiosity. So far though it tries to use WMI (Windows Management Interface) calls to determine your network map and then attach and map your...

I've been using Flexi for 20 years and have never heard of Flexi having any sort of ability to update the firmware on a device before??? Its an independent software not specifically related to any brand of hardware (sometimes gets a limited version bundled with some devices though). Typically...

Likely will not be any issues with it. We have a JV150 (basically the same printer without the cutter is all) that sat in its crate in our bay for 3 years before we finally opened it up and it works perfectly fine and the bay sometimes will have large temperature swings from as low as about 45...

For a few specific customers who you get to know well and you know something specific they like then a more personal gift can be excellent. As an example but coming to me - I had mentioned at some point in conversation with our old Fellers sales rep (Ann Poole - she was totally awesome) that I...

Either hand laid gold on sizing or possibly Realgold (or Signgold) Florentine would be a good substitute.....
