  1. Mutoh 1627MH anyone with experience?

    I use the older version, the VJ1617H. Since the change from the MP-11 to the MP-31 inks, I love it. I have a unit at my one job and a second at home where I do a ton of coroplast and partial wraps. Changing from hard to rigid substrates is easy and the ink is nearly the cost of the MP21 inks...
  2. Mutoh Valuecut 1800 VC-1800

    I've used a VC-1800 for over 5 years. Works perfectly fine. The only thing I don't care for is how easily it can bow if you lean on it (don't do this). It cuts accurate and I prefer the "segmented cutting" to a cutter just reading all the registration marks and cutting the entire piece at once...
  3. Suggestions BIG CHECKS

    Harbor Sales sells Dry Erase laminate. I wind up using it for a bunch of things. It's made by R-tape and works fine. Use only EXPO Low-Odor Dry Erase markers. Anything else will leave their mark! Good luck!
  4. Question Help with Chevrolet Blue

    Holiday Inn Express used transparent vinyl years ago. I used to do a slew of them when I worked at Delaware Valley Sign now Nova Sign Group.

  6. Mutoh VJ1324 *Service* manual

    I know this thread is 2 years old but was wondering if you still had this Service Manual. Would be greatly appreciated! -John jcskikus@hotmail.com
  7. Casa Garcias

    More than likely it's something someone either handpainted or wrote in marker and digitized. It also could be made using a wacom tablet and handwritten. Either way, your best bet is to recreate it into a vector send it out to someone to vectorize it for you. Usually under $25 to do this and...
  8. Font please ▪▪▪▪▪▪

    The "B" and "T" are customized from the original letters in the same font family but you are looking for the Peignot font family by Linotype. Not hard to find...good luck!
  9. 3M IJ180-cv3 / 8518 de-laminating

    DEFINITELY looks like a pressure washing issue. We tell customers never to use a pressure washer and to hand wash only. Issues like this pop up all the time when they do this and want me to warranty it.
  10. Suggestions windshield lettering

    I usually create a straight line (as best I can) above the windshield with painter's tape and measure the distance at 3 points from the line and recreate the arc in Flexi. I either place my text on the line or distort it to mimic the arc. It comes out very close to looking correct where only...
  11. Summa S2 160T Registration WAY Off.

    My problems with Summa, Mutoh and Graphtec, at times, was that it wouldn't read the registration marks due to the overhead lighting playing with the vinyl/lamination. With the Summa, I'd make 1" squares with a 1/8" square hole inside each one and place them over the registration mark with matte...
  12. Vinyl Rippling

    I believe this is the same material I had a problem with a few years back with a Mutoh 1624. It would tunnel like a bastage and I'd get headstrikes all the time. I lower heat in the back, then the front, changed vacuum setting and even went totally cold with heat and vacuum. It would work for a...
  13. Summa or Graphtec

    I have to agree with the majority of people in this post to say that I've also used Graphtec, Summa, Roland and Mutoh plotters over the past 20 years and the best I used was the Summa. Tight registration marks, better optical for finding them as well. As long as you kept the speed at a slow...
  14. Multiple Photos in Flexi 12

    Try to send each individual picture to Production Manager separately. Customize the print out in P.M. with the bleed, etc. without sending it. DO NOT SEND. After all 3 pics have been set up the way you want them printed, select all 3 file and NEST the files together (right click over the...
  15. Lambretta Font

    If you didn't look. Open this in either Illustrator or import the first page into FlexiSign. Good luck. Like Bobby H said, "easy find". https://www.lambretta.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/LAMBRETTA_cataloque-1.pdf
  16. Flexi 10 software

    If you just need to use it to print & cut, maybe look for a copy of Flexi Print. Might find that or Flexi Starter on eBay. SAi no longer supports Flexi 10 any longer as everything is net-based.

  18. Suggestions Trouble finding stock photos for 8' x 8' display

    Never had a problem using sites like Dreamstime, 123RF or shutterstock. The resolution can be 100ppi and print just fine in most cases, 200ppi being photographic quality. So a 6912 x 6912 image will look great. Make sure you are charging your customer if you are using stock art from a website as...

  20. Question STS MP11 (for VJ-1617H) Reviews Needed

    I've used the VJ1617H for years and loved the way you can print roll to roll AND on rigid. I've done a box truck wrap and 100 d/s coroplast in an 8 hour day. Works great and I'd get it converted to the MP-31 inks as the MP-11 cyan inks tend to gel up and wreck a printhead. This is a printer that...
