  2. english to vietnamese translation

    Take a photo, showing what you want to tell. Google translate sucks on asian languages. Those languages are tricky, terms vary region to region. Wrong combination of words lead to misunderstanding.
  3. Broken bag repair

    I'm surprised. Z6100 doesn't have a heater for curing. Are you talking about latex? In z6100, maintenance kit number 3 required at 800,000 sqf. The scan axis motor is included in maintenance kit #2 and should be replaced at 535,000 sqf run. If you earn Net profit of 0.5 $/sqf, then at...
  4. Buying polycarbonate & acrylic sheets from china ocean freight save 60% vs usa

    Importing from China isn’t a bad thing or against the economy. Only thing is customers should be informed origin of the material. What I do is offering both. For wraps Avery (Danish or Dutch?) 3M (USA) vs Hong Yong (China), for laser engraving Rowmark (USA) vs Shengwei (China), for...
  5. Buying polycarbonate & acrylic sheets from china ocean freight save 60% vs usa

    It seems no one in the party been to China. My little experience on acrylics. Reputable factories in China are very big, they sell the goods through distributors only. Same as west. Acrylics or other plastics sold by weights i.e they make contracts several thousand tonnes per year. If any...
  6. T-jet Bannerjet 1671c 1671 print and cut eco-solvent dx7 printer

    Did you flush the ink supply system? Sometimes choke and needles have build up. It slows ink flow. If you have spare refill cartridges you can clean. While empty refillable cartridges installed, push cleaning solution using syringe toward cartridges through each tube, like reverse flow. Choke...
  7. T-jet Bannerjet 1671c 1671 print and cut eco-solvent dx7 printer

    Avoid any printer with DX7 printhead, if possible DX5 also. I miss good old days with DX4. Here is why. With DX5 the ink level in the damper or leaks can be seen while it is seated on the printhead. Manifold and O rings brass nuts could be replaced. In DX7 dampers located in the black box. DX5...
  8. Refillable Cartriges

    I had IPF8300s. I think IPF8400s is next generation of that printer. Refillable cartridges should work on that printer fine. You can turn off the ink counter in service mode and even could use the chip from original cartridges. But you have to find good ink which can be mixed with original ink...
  9. HELP! HP Z6100 Broken Bag Recovery

    Ink supply tubes and trailing cables need to be replaced. It takes 2 hours to replace, not difficult. But it costs about 1000 bucks now. Don't insert broken bag cartridges again to new system. How many sqf printed your printer? In some cases better to dump old printer and borrow some money to...
  10. New Epson S80600

    Sorry, but I didn't say you're wrong, I'm right. Clear something. You asked question open to public I replied. Due to time difference I come back late. It seems you did not read my post. What I understand, you're going to open new shop, experience is only Mutoh 1324, looking for new printer. And...
  11. New Epson S80600

    Forgot one thing, the Epson should be made in China lol.
  12. New Epson S80600

    I know, it's hard hear the truth. Almost all industrial printers have twin channel head like Seiko, Konica Minolta, Spectra except Ricoh Gen. That's why it's very difficult to compete with them in terms of price and color. Printers with Epson printhead is really extended desktop printer with...
  13. New Epson S80600

    Yes, it is all about combination of ink, substrate, profile and designers ability. I think most important thing is ink itself. Higher the pigment load in it easier to get bright colors, but the other hand it creates problems to the printer like clogged nozzles, build-ups in pumps and lines etc...
  14. New Epson S80600

    I've read some of your comment and you have hard time to make desicion of buying a new printer. If I were you, I would get 2 printers on that budget. I didn't see Epson S80, but since it has 2 pieces TFP aka DX10 can be predicted about 100sqf on SAV. Maybe in fresh new condition you can get 150...
  15. VJ 1204 works fine but does not print

    Thanks a lot. I will tell my friend he'd order fuses on the mainboard labeled F2 and F3 and replace them anyway. I've seen fuses cost less than 10 bucks. :rock-n-roll::rock-n-roll:
  16. VJ 1204 works fine but does not print

    Dear Vander J. I have exact same problem with Roland RA640. I sold this printer to my friend early this year. When he replaced the PH, he put head flex data cables in wrong order. i.e I wrote number on them 1,2,3,4 but he connected as 4,3,2,1. I told him to replace mainboard and new PH. But he's...
  17. Newbie question about non compatible paper on HP Designjet Z3100

    I would do following, to contact the supplier to check whether this media compatible with HP vivera ink. If yes, they should have or able to find ICC profile for you. Then you can install it to the driver and upload into the printer also with its own name. If not, you may try to make color...

    mission impossible
  19. Should I get a CJV130?

    Sir, I did't say Epson printhead is bad or worst. Print quality is the best maybe, but in terms of price, speed and ink delivery systems highly doubtful. When HP latex introduced in the market, thousands of users switched to. I've read on Frank's comment that 40 -50 % of new printers sold in...
  20. Should I get a CJV130?

    I'm surprised to your intention for printing labels for beer, wine by CVJ series. No any eco sol printer compete with offset printing in terms of quality and price unless under 100 pieces. Avoid any printer with Epson printheads. I was passing through several brands with DX4, DX5, DX7 and TPF...
