  1. Mutoh Falcon - What is this?

    Anyone?
  2. Mutoh Falcon - What is this?

    This happens everytime I try and print a solid color. See how the print has a constant wave of light to dark? What is that? I've tried messing with my temperature settings in the past and it does not seem to make a difference? What should my temperature settings be at? And what causes this...
  3. Should I sell my Gerber setup?

    Well, I decided to sell it. I put it up on eBay. Today is the last day of the auction...
  4. Mutoh Falcon Outdoor - Banding Lines?

    Well, I went to the shop to complete the head soak. No change :( The Cyan still looks a little chaotic. I think I might just order another head and clean this one up for a backup since its pretty new and works fairly well.
  5. Mutoh Falcon Outdoor - Banding Lines?

    Hey CRD, I did replace the head myself, and I did enter the correct head rank. I'm sure I printed a nozzle check after the head installation, but I don't remember if the Cyan looked like that then or if it was a little later. I think at that point I was just so excited to have each head...
  6. Mutoh Falcon Outdoor - Banding Lines?

    Gotcha. Thanks :) That black diagonal issue was a glitch. My current nozzle checks and even my previous nozzle checks didn't have that. I believe that my Cyan color has looked like that since I replaced my heads last month. Think maybe it came damaged somehow? It's hard for me to know how...
  7. Mutoh Falcon Outdoor - Banding Lines?

    Well I did a head soak this morning and the nozzle check looks identical to how it was. It still prints with a slight banding. I'm now messing with the step adjust function, but that doesn't seem to help. Only makes things worse :) Any other ideas? Do you think it's that Cyan nozzle?
  8. Mutoh Falcon Outdoor - Banding Lines?

    Thanks, I'll give it a shot. I've done head soaks in the past and it seems like everyone has a different opinion on what to use for the soak? Blue shop towels? Microfiber? What can I get in town that will work?
  9. Mutoh Falcon Outdoor - Banding Lines?

    I've noticed that I've been getting some weird banding on my prints lately. It's not the worst I've seen, but on some jobs it's quite noticeable. I've attached some pictures. Seems worse on dark colors such as blue and black. I don't notice it that much with lighter colors. I've tried...
  10. Wall Vinyl NOT sticking

    If I was to put digital printed graphics on the wall using a cast, high performance film, would I need to laminate those graphics? Or would it matter?
  11. New Heads - color profiles not working?

    Thanks, but the print head was a separate issue. I blew my print heads earlier. This thread was about color profile problems after the print heads were replaced : ) All is well now though : )
  12. New Heads - color profiles not working?

    I downloaded the 4560GT Profile from Arlons website and it worked amazing!
  13. New Heads - color profiles not working?

    I've been through almost every profile, and I can't find any that work that well. The main issue is that the grey's have too much of a green tint. Any ideas?
  14. New Heads - color profiles not working?

    Haha, man, that is so frustrating! I get this thing working well for 2 weeks, then I spend the next 2 weeks fixing... That HP L25500 is sounding better every day! Could probably spend the time selling product to pay for the HP rather than spending the time to fix my Mutoh...
  15. Wrap Design: Going from one side to the other

    Haha, thanks. Ya, I was just messing around last night.
  16. New Heads - color profiles not working?

    I just replaced the heads on my Mutoh Falcon Outdoor last night. Went great! Even updated the head ranks. Also, I adjusted and all the heads seem to be lining up well. However, now the color profile that I had previously been using for just about everything doesn't seem right. The color comes...
  17. Wrap Design: Going from one side to the other

    Hey Guys! I'm messing around with some wrap designs for my truck. Here are 3 I made up last night. My question is that in all of these, how do you keep the pattern consistent, going from one side of the truck to the other. It's not like I could design the right side to the left side of the...
  18. Life of 3M vs Avery vs Oracal vs Arlon wrap vinyl

    Right, right. This would actually be for utility boxes in town. We have semi cold winters and nice summers... So, they are going to want some kind of a life expectancy, not that I'll guarantee anything. What should I say?
  19. Life of 3M vs Avery vs Oracal vs Arlon wrap vinyl

    Who has the best life of the cast wrap vinyl? I want to provide my customer with the best wrap vinyl out there. I've gathered that 3M is the best, but 3M states 8yrs while Avery and Oracal state 10yrs. To make matters more frustrating, you have vinyls that say they last 8-10yrs, but all...
  20. Utility Box Wrapping

    I'm giving a bid to wrap some utility boxes. The utility boxes are oldish and the paint isn't anything like the nice coat that would be on a car. Is that an issue? I plan on getting the boxes all nice and prepped with some good cleaner, remove any loose paint, etc... but other than that, should...
