  1. Need Help S40600 considering upgrade

    60600 for speed, 80600 for gamut.
  2. Issue with Hahnemuhle Baryta FB

    Looks like a faulty roll to me. I'm assuming other media isn't getting these dots in the print? Surely if the issue exists for more than the first 2 feet, the "dust" has arrived from the factory as it would be coming on the freshly unrolled paper. Unless you're printing in a dust storm, I can't...
  3. why god does this buckle constantly?

    Our settings for banner stock are: Pre-heater 40C / 104F Platen-heater 40C / 104F After-heater 55C / 131F Media type set to "Banner" and Platen-gap is 2.0. No buckling on our 80600.
  4. poor quality oce arizona

    I'd agree... blocked or deflecting nozzles. Even though the machine is 'newly installed' it's a 1260 so I'm assuming not new from the factory to you as the 13xx has already been out for 3 years.
  5. poor quality oce arizona

    Do you have any photos of the prints that you can share? What mode are you printing in?
  6. What vinyl type to use for dirt bike graphics?

    We don't do the installs, so can't give you first hand information unfortunately. It's a polymeric material with a matching laminate, so imagine there's a moderate amount of flexibility in it. The high tack vinyl helps a lot with low energy plastic adhesion though.
  7. Epson Edge Dashboard

    EED isn't really required if you have a RIP you've successfully configured. We only use ours to set up new media types, as it's easier typing the new name into a keyboard than trying to use the printer control panel. It's odd that you can't see the printer when refreshing the printer list. Has...
  8. Question is a roland printer cutter more accurate on smaller jobs (cutting it's own job)

    Our Graphtec cuts more accurately than our Roland VS540 ever did, so I wouldn't want to assume using the same machine would be more accurate at all times.
  9. What vinyl type to use for dirt bike graphics?

    We've been supplying clients MX graphics using GF201-HTAP(AE) for around 5 years with no complaints so far.
  10. where to find 60# label stock for wide format printer?

    Sihl 3683 is their blue backed SA paper. Not sure how it compares to what you're after.
  11. Moving large format printers.

    I'd just get a truck with a tail lift. Wheel the thing on, strap it down carefully then relocate it. I've moved a couple of wide format roll machines before and it wasn't too stressful. Not sure if the Epson has a "relocate" feature which will dump the ink out of the head/lines for transportation.
  12. Bumpiest laminate possible

    Hexis have a bunch of textured laminates: https://www.hexis-graphics.com/en/products/laminates/special-effect/ PCWALL might be what you're after. Watch the video to see a sample.
  13. Vinyl Sticker Printer

    You're replying to a 13 year old thread... I'd hope they have this sorted by now.
  14. Oh, I really went and did it now! In serious need of help or suggestions.

    Worst case (before replacing the letters) you could try wrap the faces with a brushed metal look wrap vinyl.
  15. Primera printer

    It would not be a good choice of machine for that sort of job. They use dye/pigment inks which do not last long term outdoors and primarily use paper stock which won't handle outdoors/weather for very long. Latex or solvent are your best suited machines for this.
  16. ARIZONA 1380 XT COLOR PROBLEM

    Can you take a photo of the full nozzle test and upload here for us to see?
  17. Banner Clarification

    We use 2" welded hems on all banners. We print and cut to size, then weld the hems. I've never put any thought into rolls being made for certain job types. We use 54" for virtually everything except 60" for large canvas prints.
  18. ARIZONA 1380 XT COLOR PROBLEM

    These prints come straight off the maching using internally stored jobs. They are not processed through a RIP.
  19. Need Help Anyone have an Onyx 12 install disk?

    Onyx doesn't allow downloads further than 2 prior versions.
  20. Need Help Die-cutting labels and stickers

    We have an FC8600 with the perf cutting channel. It works very well and doesn't destroy cutting strips like our old Roland used to. You can see the FC9000 cutting channel here:
