  1. Converting t-shirt conveyor dryer to UV curing

    Hello all, It's been a long time since I did any screen printing. But now I want to get back in but don't have the room to add a UV conveyor dryer to do up to 24" wide UV printed signs. Has anyone heard or know of anyone converting their std. conveyor dryer to UV? I believe I have plenty of room...
  2. PC-60 and Photoprint/flexi

    It's working now. Just have to experiment with different settings to get the best quality print. Cutting - no problem. Looks like I'll finally put this printer to work. Printer is brand new and only did a test cut back in 2003. It sat for all theses years. Could not do that with an inkjet type...
  3. PC-60 and Photoprint/flexi

    I would use it but since the machine sat for 5 years and I used it one time, The CD that came with it, the label side started peeling off. So that did not work. But anyway, I got it to print and cut using the rip and print function. It says there is no profile but I continue anyway and it did...
  4. PC-60 and Photoprint/flexi

    Anyone using PotoPrint or flexi to run the Roland PC-60 print and cut? Trying to find the ICC profiles needed to print and cut. Thanks
  5. Printers and cold weather areas

    So the possibilities might lie in the cold media. I'll raise the media temp a little and see how it goes. I did a couple of head washes and the print is good now. Thanks for the feedback.
  6. Printers and cold weather areas

    It's getting cold overnight here in Nevada and I was just wondering if other shops in cold regions do anything else besides keeping their thermostats set at a comfort range overnight for their printers. I have the HP 9000s with a bulk ink system and noticed a loss of quality in the quality...
  7. ENCAD VinylJet 36 COLOR Sign Printer

    I just stumbled upon an encad vinyljet 36 printer at a liquidators place. It was an end of lease printer. Just wondering if anyone out there has one or has had experience with one. I understand it uses aquatic inks that are cured with infrared heat and is supposedly compatible to solvent...
  8. HP 9000s head cleaning

    Now that makes sense, but how is that adjusted? I get banding so anything other than paterned prints need to be in high quality. Don't get me wrong the machine is a great machine and works good but still has light banding. I use the up arrow for dark banding marks or down arrow for light...

  11. HP 9000s head cleaning

    Thank guys for all the replies. I ultimately used a swab from fellers, heated and bent the handle at 20 degrees or so then added an empty ball point pen casing to extend the swab handle. So far it's worked pretty good using a small mirror layed across the wiper area and a flashlight. Just...
  12. New from Las Vegas

I started with a home based bus. and went into a commercial spot. Real estate is my main bag. I run an HP designJet 9000s. and do some screen printing. drop...
  13. HP Designjet 9000s????

    Thank you very much for responding. My sales rep was not helpfull at all so I call HP support. They said it needed to be serviced by certified tech. At $180 p/hour, 8 to ten hours is very costly. Last tech took over 20 hours to make all the adjustments, however the printer was under warantee...
  14. HP Designjet 9000s????

    I've posted a few threads but only one one has answered. I don't now if I'm posting the wrong way, maybe it's a thread no one wants to touch or there are very few HP 9000s owners out there. Plenty of viewers but no bites. Just looking for some one that can share some tips and experiences using...

  16. HP Designet 9000S calibrations

    Anyone out there own an HP designjet 9000s? I need tips on how to calibrate the heads. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Sergio
  17. Needing service manual for HP designjet 9000s

    I would like to find a service manual for the HP designjet 9000s printer. I watched the service guy do all the calibrations on my printer and he did everything by the book. He also had a CD. He could not give me a copy but did mention that there are several copies wandering out there. He...
  18. HP Designet 9000S "head gone bad?"

    You could be right. I would like to know how to run the pump for that head only. I exposed most of the lines and found only one (CYAN) line that had an air gap in the line but that color works fine. Short of doing a prime for that head I can't go any further without instructions on activating...
  19. HP Designet 9000S "head gone bad?"

    Also, the bulk ink system is what I call a plug and play. There were no necessary adjustments or profiles to change at all. That's what sold me on that bulk ink system. Others aftermarket inks needed their own profiles and devices to fool the printer into accepting their inks. I honestly don't...
  20. HP Designet 9000S "head gone bad?"

    I had a tech come out last year and replaced two heads. Spent almost 20 hours adjusting all the heads after the two were replaced. Since then it's run great. The tech was not from HP. HP subs the work to independent service companies. I was hoping to run some functions on the black head and to...
