burn time not long enough?? I had a similar issue with the emulsion I am using I was told that it could be exposed to white light, the way I understand it is if the emulsion is exposed to white light it will slow down the emulsion cure time or burn time if you will, so it will take longer to...

maybe, it is time for a big boy machine.... maybe a 24 inch roland, or summa , or graphtech, etc. I would think your production costs would go down by steeping up to a bigger machine, buying your media in those smaller widths must be more costly, if you go with one of the afore mentioned...

this is not so bad....back in the 80's I did a lot of boat registration numbers, (hand painted) the cost started at 50.00 up depending on what they wanted, one guy had a fairy expensive boat but he was to cheap to pay the 50 bucks, the next time I seen his boat it was on the lake with the reg...

I presume that you are talking about the vacuum that holds the media to the platen when it prints, if that is what you are talking about there is usually a computer type fan on the bottom of the platen that may be under a cover, you may need to remove the cover and replace the fan, if the fan...
