  1. Just got a new printer! What the heck is it?

    We had one of those... Threw it out 10 years ago. We used it as a plotter also. Replaced it with the designjet 110. Still going strong today. Not much use for a 450 these days. Unless you got an old win 98 system laying around. Due to lack of USB or RJ45 connections. We had issues with ink...
  2. photoshop eye candy problem

    I believe it just adds a lime to the graphic.......
  3. Whats the least expensive option for a potential customer.

    The cheapest you can get by is by media blast then epoxy primer. Then wrap. The best way is to media blast, Etch, epoxy prime then a good single stage paint like PPG DCC in white, then wrap. the 30 day cure time is right on the money, Obey that rule. all else fails sand down prime and paint...
  4. Looking for large camo files...don't want to tile.

    The pick 6 deal was a steal at 250 but now they raised it to 295 still not a bad price you just have to get bundle packs and not the individual graphics.

    You need to apply for each college you wish to print most all schools have different pricing and you will need to show them proofs and finished product before they will allow you to use the logos. You will also have to pay a small royalties advancement. expect to pay 2-5k for each school...
  6. Sources for isopropryl alcohol

    +1 for Walmart, although now I will check Costco to see if its better priced. Since I always seem to be driving by a Walmart I get it there.
  7. How To: Scam your parents to get money

    +1 100% bogus claim. Unless it was dragged behind the UPS truck the entire way but still no chance of damaging cables. I think we need pictures of box when it arrived to son. But I'm sure the son cannot provide any pictures. Invoice does not even have a logo just generic Excel/Word template.
  8. Paint Chips In Original Paint... How Do You Deal With Them When Wrapping Over?

    I say why not get out the DA sander and with some 240,320 600grit smooth it down shoot some sealer and wrap away.. You can worry about painting it after the wrap is removed. also if you hit metal it would be advised to Etch then prime then seal then wrap.
  9. Grimco has a L260 on their Happy Friday Special

    Ya the L260 been on sale now for a couple months, I think it's been on the Grimco Friday special for the last month or so. Almost makes me want to buy it. But I remember other members posting that a newer unit is on its way out fairly soon and they are just off loading these older units.

  12. Graphtec 7000-130, Plotter, Motor Replacement Nidec UGJMEE-A7MGR72

    Do you have a local motor rebuild shop? If it's a brushed motor they can true up the comm and put new brushes in it for ya or maybe just call Nidec directly and have them cross it to a useable motor.
  13. Has anyone seen these or had experience with one?

    Nope I have an HP latex machine. I would do more research you would rather buy a printer for 5k+ with a DX5 print head. Than a newer technology printer that uses a DX7 print head for less money. the parts for the banner jet were crazy cheap so you could stock everything you need if it breaks...
  14. Has anyone seen these or had experience with one?

    If you really want to buy a imported printer from China take a look at a banner jet 1671 it's $3200. Includes RIP and one set of 1 liter inks. And has a DX7 head you can get it shipped to your door for under 5k. Keep on researching.

  20. Back of fire truck

    We just got a new truck and it is printed and not strips. On that note I say it would look nicer if it were done with strips.
