  1. best printer for white and metallic printing

    Thanks for the replies! I completely forgot about epson. I'll check them out. The edge is great idea as well, it's been a while since I looked at them. I've heard rumbling about Roland's white and silver inks having longevity issues in vehicle wraps. Anyone have an early failure yet?
  2. best printer for white and metallic printing

    hey guys, i'm looking for recommendations on the best printer that has BOTH on board white and metallic ink. We've been using mutoh vj1624s for the last ten years and have been very happy with them, but have a new project that will require the specialty inks. The printers I'm currently looking...
  3. What Vinyl Is The Best?

    Im guessing your customer was using the 3m 1080 color change wrap film if it was thicker. Not really intended for striping, it will do it just fine, at a bit of higher cost. The 970 series films from oracal would work just as well though. and I'd not recommend the 180c film from 3m, while it...
  4. Question How To Leave Signvox

    UPDATE: I have been contacted by Rao and been notified that the wrap tool is indeed not useable without the templates. He has offered to refund me on the service though, of which I appreciate. But that said, I don't think that signvox is the correct choice for our shop as the wrap tools aren't...
  5. Question How To Leave Signvox

    Rao, I've called and left messages and emailed and received no response. So I guess we'll have this conversation publicly. The vehicle measurement tool is useless if there is no template to measure with. I can't remember the last time a template was ready to go, I ALWAYS have to request the...
  6. Question How To Leave Signvox

    Has anyone successfully migrated from Signvox to another product? I'm at the end of my rope. Customer service is horrible, and strictly limited to online chat - when someone is there. When you do get someone online they rarely can help you, I'm not sure what they're being trained on. I've left...

  8. color profiling with flexi cloud

    thanks for the info. can i get away with a used eye 1 unit off of eBay? One of the gray older style units or do i need a new pro2 kit?
  9. color profiling with flexi cloud

    Who's using the built in profiling tool? What spectrophotometer are you using? Is it working well for you? thanks in advance!
  10. anybody got a machine they're parting out? I need a waste tank

    the printer won't run without that sensor plugged in unfortunately. I bit the bullet and bought the oem unit. it was worth a shot.
  11. anybody got a machine they're parting out? I need a waste tank

    title says it all. I need a new waste tank for my vj1614. Mine melted and got tossed by the tech, including the little sensor on the top (bummer). Let me know if you've got one to sell please and thank you.
  12. need an installer for a small project in marina del rey

    i'm looking for an installer in the marina del rey area for installation of cut translucent vinyl on lexan. The lexan is attached to an "art car" so will have to be done on site (location to be determined). Time frame would be some time next week. Area to be installed would be about 3'x10'...
  13. vj1604 dye sub conversion

    thanks for the info. that's what I need to know.
  14. vj1604 dye sub conversion

    anyone done one or seen one done? I (will hopefully) have a backup 1604 that I'm considering converting to run dye sub inks but can't find anything that says it's officially do-able. thoughts?
  15. 1604 Heater Control Board/PF encoder errors, alternately do you have a parts machine?

    yep. already changed it. First thing we did was wipe the encoder wheel. Then swapped the motor. then the main board. then the encoder sensor and wheel. About six months prior I had replaced the power supply. I'll have a new machine before I'm done. (Well I actually do have a new machine, I...
  16. 1604 Heater Control Board/PF encoder errors, alternately do you have a parts machine?

    I've got a dead 1604 that keeps popping up pf errors upon initialization. So far we've replaced the main board, the power supply, the pf motor, the encoder and the encoder wheel, all to no avail as the problem persists. I found a schematic for this machine with voltages and after some sleuthing...
  17. shelf talkers and wobblers

    thanks Pat, that's kind of the same idea i had, (business card sized ad attached to wobbler). Sounds like you don't think it's worth it to do in house though. Anybody recommend a company that wholesales finished full color wobblers?
  18. shelf talkers and wobblers

    not sure if you're being snarky or not. I googled them as well and have been looking at suppliers all morning. Just wondered if anyone on here was doing them in-house already and had any advice as to what materials worked best.
  19. shelf talkers and wobblers

    anybody making these things? I've got a customer that wants to order a couple thousand, but with different messages on each 100 or so. So I probably need to make them in house. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with them, that they'd like to pass along. thanks
  20. I need an installer in Houston for tomorrow, possibly wednesday

    I just found out that my customer intends to install a full wrap on a 24x8 box truck using some moving guys that are just hanging around. Highly recommended a professional installer to customer, and he agreed. It's only one side of the truck, six panels, single color logo on white background...
