The ValueJet is the bomb! I absolutely love mine. I've got it running in the spare bedroom almost nightly and everyone's been impressed so far. Matt

Tom, I agree and disagree at the same time! I'm also and "end-user," who runs a sign shop on the side out of my house. I figured, hey, I'm already selling the equipment, why not buy a piece to make some money! I ended up buying the ValueJet over a few other solvent printers based on my sales...

$22k list, but work with a good dealer (like myself) and we'll hook you up. =0) Honestly, we denied selling the HP 9000 when it was offered to us by HP because we don't want to rep old technology, ESPECIALLY in the outdoor market! That's why the ValueJet has been so awesome, it's honestly...

I'd recommend the ValueJet over the HP. Honestly, it has better speed (new firmware on the 64" unit has it up to 189 sq/ft per hour), production capabilities, lower cost of operation (4-color v 6-color), and prints MUCH nicer (1440 dpi v. 720 dpi) as a 4-color process versus HP (much higher...

It sounds like a great deal and I'd have problems passing that up. We've got a FC-7000 130 and absolutely love it! It's very accurate, does print/cut well with our ValueJet, no complaints whatsoever. Matt

I'm with Replicator. Stay mainstream with software like Wasatch, Flexi, Onyx, etc.

When I switched from Flexi to Wasatch I had to upgrade to XP Pro. Something about networking features in XP Home that Wasatch couldn't handle. Tried running Wasatch, but they were right...very unstable. The RIP queue kept shutting down in the middle of jobs and it just got frustrating. Before...

It's a stripped down version of Photo Print 5. It's a RIP software for Mutoh only printers, similar to what Wasatch did with Roland. Won't be of much use to anyone unless they have a Mutoh. No design features or anything, just a RIP. Matt

Welcome to the funny show! Matt

I use Banner 4 and Quality 2 exclusively. Then again, I have really accurate profiles so my output on Banner 4 will match any other 720 dpi mode, but I get 120 sq/ft hr. Graphics and text are incredibly sharp, not a hint of banding, even in highly dense areas. The only time I use Q2 is for my...

If you could spare the money, I'd look at the ValueJet also. It's much more user-friendly and "hands-off" than the Falcon II and it prints phenomenal. Mutoh has really revolutionized the eco-solvent market for the entry-mid level shop. Good luck! Matt

The key to any accurate output is accurate profiles. We customize all of our media profiles in house, and quite honestly, our 540x720 dpi prints look frickin' amazing! I've had to use 1440 ONCE to satisfy a customer that needed intense high quality, but our 720 dpi prints are our core and they...

Yup, but I prefer other media types. Honestly, most of the Diamond Shield line is GMI product. But still, it works good. Matt

ndo, The set up is a breeze! You should do it yourself so you don't have to wait! It'll only take about 45 minutes! You'll be amazed at your purchase, this one of the best solvent printers I've ever worked with hands down! Kudos to Mutoh too, their support is really awesome on this product. Matt

The replacement pads are $18 for a full set. Take out the old ones, clean out the waste tray with soap water, put the new ones in...Cheap! Matt

Hp 750 You can get those results, and heck, I'll give you that exact file if you want! =0) The 750 is a great color printer, but as stated above, it's primarily designed for CAD-based drawings. Will do nice output on photographic media, some poly, but any outdoor durable products will not be...

Gerber Solara UV I wasn't very impressed with what I saw. The quality was not as good as advertised, and the printer was extremely slow! I've also heard that Gerber's tech support isn't the easiest to deal with, but that may be open to interpretation. If you're serious about UV, I'd take a...

I've been very impressed with this printer. We have the 48" model and the downside is that there's no takeup reel, but overall, not a big concern compared to the benefits. The quality is phenomenal, great speed, really quiet...sometimes I don't even realize it's on. =0) I think Mutoh has a...

I have to say that the ValueJet is absolutely impressive. My company has been HP DesignJet dealers for over 13 years, and the ValueJet beats the 5500 in quality and speed, HANDS DOWN! That's hard for me to say since I've bled "5500" since entering this industry a few years ago. The Interweave...
