I want to laminate my solvent ink vehicle signs and I haven't the clue what to use.....cold or hot press laminating....anyone?

Thanks men! I have emailed Dave at solventprinterconvesion.com and he has a kit for $1750 for my Cj-500...Now I also have a Roland FJ-52 and was just wondering which unit would be the best to convert.....any ideas?

My question is....which Roland printer is newer...the FJ-50 or the 52 or both about the same one just wider then the other... I have one of each, will convert one to solvent ink...

I am printing my outdoor stuff with a Roland CJ-500 solvent conversion unit. My question is....should I laminate signs, graphics, on vehicles and like vision see through graphics even though it's done with solvent ink?

The unit comes with and internal heater, located under the front platen to handle pigment ink, now I am converting to solvent ink and it needs more heat then the unit came with.

I want to add on a post heater for my solvent converted CJ-500 does anyone knows where to get one?

Thanks men, I really think I can do this! I have also looked at a site called www.solventprinterconversion.com They selling conversion kits for some of the Roland printers and instructions how to do it.

Does anyone here has converted a CJ-500 to eco-solvent? I am looking for parts and how to.

As far as I know...it uses eco solvent ink!

Does anyone knows how many print-heads in the sp-540v and if repairs are expensive on these machines...like print-heads and so on?

There is a CJ-500 available to me with added heater, take-up reel and already converted to eco-solvent ink. I have seen the print test and it looked good. The seller wants $5K for it. I would be using this printer until I can afford a new one.....maybe a year or so!

I contacted a Roland seller in Phoenix, to see if they happen to have any trade ins of any CJ printers, he told me he didn't have any of this time and even if he did,,,, he wouldn't sell it to me cause they are so out dated. He told me it wouldn't be too long before Roland will stop supporting...

I am interested providing it's been drained and in good working condition or let me know what it needs to get it up to work good.

Does anyone have one of the above mentioned Rolands for sale? If so contact me at www.info@signs-4-less.net
