  1. mutoh 1204 no black ink

    I'm afraid I don't really know what this issue is either. I too, use a 1204 and they're great work horses when it comes to printing.
  2. Dry time before cutting?

    Same here. Usually I give it an hour. Maybe more for heavy inks. Maybe less for lighter ones. Also, by insisting on an hour "drying time", it keeps the project managers from expecting me to do everything in 5 minutes.
  3. Need Help Cut ACM twisting....

    We've had this issue too. But ours were cut on a router here at work. I could hold the sign on it's edge and see the warping by as much as a quarter of an inch. They were 2ft by 3ft signs, .080 aluminium. The guy running the router said it must have come from the vendor warped, but cutting them...
  4. Don't you just love....?

    My boss has had some installs of about 180 miles for ridiculously small amounts of vinyl on doors/signs. They definitely lost money on them but... the project manager knew those companies were on the verge of some mass expansions and/or rebranding. So staying in their good graces was well worth...
  5. Cricut crazies want scraps !

    We also donate our scraps to schools and such. Although one co-worker's wife has one of those machines and he regularly grabs scraps for her to use. The waxy vinyl paper backing, we use to line our trash cans. It keeps the vinyl scraps from sticking to the garbage bags. Or we use it for when we...
  6. DANGERS of UV Printing

    I run a HP Scitex and remain very conscious of the light when checking quality during printing. When I run mine, the printhead are so close to the material with the bulbs no much higher, plus the shutters opening and closing as it prints, I've never felt an issue regarding exposure. But I keep...
  7. Need a printer that prints white on clear

    I work with a HP Scitex FB500 and the white ink is a pain. Too easy to clog. And when loaded up, the endless automatic cleaning cycles chew through the box of ink even when nothing is printing. Right now, we have it loaded, but I can't get the light cyan ink out of the tubes, so it is showing up...
  8. Print head on ValueJet 1614 sticking at beginning of print, ERR 074 code

    I have had trouble with the wiper and/or the lock getting "sticky". For me, a good cleaning of one or the other usually fixes it.
  9. HP Scitex FB700 Blues printing purple.

    I find this very, very interesting. On Friday, I had to leave early while doing 3 large prints. The first was okay. I set up the second and asked a coworker to load the third for me. All were running off the same file. But when I came into work today, I saw that all three were different colors...
