We do it exactly the way bluefish does his d/s banners. So far we have had great success and the most it will vary is about a 1/16th on occasion but generally it is right on.

Merry Christmas and a Happy and more prosperous New Year to everyone!!!

We've yet to replace a pad. Been running about 4 months now. Due head cleaning with swab every Friday. That's it.

Thanks for the reply. Have been out of the office for awhile so sorry for the late response. Still having issues with the centering of material. Will have to play with the settings in Wasatch more.

We are having a terrible time of getting the print to center on our scrim coming off of our GS 6000. Talking to Epson about it has gotten us nowhere. When we load our media, say 38", we center it, run it from our Wasatch Rip and still have to play with our parameters. Initially, when you load...

print looks great. Were running 16 oz. KOMA double sided banner from Fellers.

My pre and platen settings are usually set on 40 each and post on 50.(highest). Never thought about getting the material to hot. But will definitely try turning down the pre and platen a bite. JOSH - the material is being printed on a Epson GS. Will check into the Sihl material.

Is there as way to turn down the ink being dispensed on my Wasatch Rip? Seems like it is over inking on my Scrim which is not allowing the inks to bake on properly so that they are not very resistant to light scuffing or scratching?

I have other samples printed with eco-solv that I can lightly use my fingernail on them and they do not scratch. On mine however, if I lightly drag my fingernails across it they scratch.

Having a severe problem with scratching on banners printed on 13oz. Scrim. Heat is set high, but when the banners dry, if you were to rub your finger lightly across a solid it will scratch the ink. Is this normal? If not, any suggestions on eliminating the problem. I thought eco-solv was...

Were running alot of banners on 13 oz scrim with our Epson GS and am wondering if there is another way to coat them when they are finished rather than laminating them. The problem we are having with lamination is when they roll them up and then unroll them you can see the creases in the...

We recently decided to purchase a sewing machine for banner sewing. In the past we have always used tape to seam and it has worked just fine. One of our larger customers wanted their banners sewn so hence, the purchase. My big question is what type of thread do I need to sew the banners? Who...

Thanks for all your advice. I will make some calls in the a.m. to see if I can get some samples of the suggested material's.

I hope this is the right place to ask this question. I am looking for a strong adhesive sticker that when placed on 7 mil plastic bag, will not come off. My customer needs me to print labels for him but has been having trouble finding a good adhesive label that wont come off. Any suggestions...

Insignia, thanks for answering my questions. Sorry to hear about all the problems you are having with your Epson. It sounds like you've got a lemon. We print Ultraflex 13 oz. and Bantex 18 oz. thru ours all the time and never have a problem as well as many other thick material. We have...

Thanks for all your reply's. We are going to try a bigger blade and see what happens. We adjusted speed and force but still rips material.Brian

50 MPH and 400 mile range!! That's an accident waiting to happen.

Insignia, just curious. What is the difference in ink cost GS6000 vs. JV-33? Also what material have you had problems with as far as extra heavy?

Just got our Graphtec 8000 on line and it works great. Only having one problem with it. We are laminating Orajet 3641 with a 2 mil laminate and then trying to get it to cut labels out. Keeps tearing the material or cutting to deep or not deep enough. Do I need a different blade other than...

Epson 6000 GS, We've been very happy with ours and most importantly, so have our customers. As far as ink fade, I've heard a lot on this forum about problems but we have never had a problem with it.
