Hi team, Long long time printer but heavily Colorgate based until very recently where a new flatbed has required me to go to onyx. I am just trying to do a simple add a 10mm white area to say a 1200x900mm PDF, and then have a basic outline on that 10mm for trimming purposes. This was super...

Hey fam, my flatbed is giving me a head-scratching issue. Magenta is doing something weird, I have replaced the head, the head board and the cable, giving it a clean power supply from a working head and still repeating the same thing! I am at a complete loss as to what to try next, the...

Hey team, I am looking at getting a 2513 with the 120 running CMYK CMYK CL PR WW. A large amount of my work is corflute/coroplast, what has peoples adhesion been like on these materials? Also anyone have any plus/minus with the machine, I also have the new Epson v7000 on the list but with it...

Hey community, I have an Arizona 460GT and have a few nozzles on 1 side of the head dropped out, enough that its annoying me and want to fix it. Can I do a reverse flush etc while the head is still in the machine, and what fluids am I best to use? Or should I soak overnight/24 hours resting on...

Hey Team, I have a diagnostic download from my 360 and need a way to read it to see when the service kits were or were not done. Can anyone supply or point me to the correct piece of software, I cant boot my 360 to a point to be able to use the EWS unless someone knows a way to force it to...

Doing my head in here, not sure if it is a rip issue or a printer issue, this is posted in both areas! In my rip, I repeat a job, in this example it's a simple 2 page PDF x 3 copies, I should get all 6 prints across the media. Media is fully measured and calibrated etc. In rip the layout and...

Hey team, not sure what way to describe this, my knowledge of latex machines is limited, I went from solvent to UV and have never dabbled in it. Anyway, on my 360, as the media is exiting the printer it's getting sucked UP into the curing unit. I have attached some pics. I thought this would...

Hey all, just got my hands on a low use 360, but banging my head on actually getting it to print from colorgate. I have it setup and talking between one another, I have profiled and set the media up and sent that back to CG from the printer and made the appropriate MIM etc, all is setup...

Hey team double barrled question here. Firstly, does anyone use NMP on their heads to clean them. I have previously used it on other machines (KM512 heads) and had amazing results at cleaning deflection and blockages. artbot can you answer this one? Secondly, my varnish and white heads never...

Hey guys, I have the 6 colour (CMYKWV) GT, 4 years old and I have only used the W & V a handful of times and not once in the last 12 months, just not the market I had anticipated. I'd like to disable the printheads altogether so that I don't have to keep feeding ink into the machine, every 3...

can I 'accidently' get one of these anywhere, along with the service manual? 460GT all my techs do is turn up then load their laptop up with service manual and go from there, I have more experience fixing machines then they do! It's a little frustrating watching them burn time and $$$ with...

I just installed a new white (258) in my 460 and I noticed the stickers have changed. They used to show CMYKWV and check boxes. It now shows 2 rows with check boxes. K C M Y W V lk lc lm Or Purple Gr Are they going to be adding an option to go 6 colour makeups, 8 colours etc? The...

Hey guys n gals, looking for people input to cleaning deflected nozzles, specifically the Océ 460GT which runs the Toshiba Tec CE2 head for me, but happy to gather information for all heads so other people may learn some tricks too! I have followed the Océ guides, and while they work, it's...

Question for the people with the Océ GT/XT printers out there. How long did install and everything else take until you were operational. We are due to get ours installed next week and that are saying 4-5 days which has me stumped. in my last 15 years of printing on wide format machines the most...

Smaller acrylic prints, reverse printed with white, full bleed, say 600x400mm on 10-20mm acrylic. Do you finish the edges pre or post printing? May be a silly question but it is not an area I have had to deal with before. Will be printing on a Oce 460. Thanks!

These machines have popped up over in my neck of the woods, but further investigation puts 1 or the other as rebadge (dilli = agfa etc) now I know there are a few CET users in here so I am looking for some feedback. I was looking at the Océ 460XT CMYKWV, I presume CET/Handtop has the same make...

Anyone have experience with these inks? Specifically with adhesion to coreflute/polyprop etc. I had the G1 inks for a few months which were next to useless then went to a 3rd party. We are having a M2500 put in front of us with the newer G2 inks, but I am still a little concerned about the...

Hi all, in the process of replacing a Dilli Hybrid machine and the FB series is a contender. The automation of this machine seems a real bonus, the multi board input and loading while printing etc. I would like to ask your thoughts on Gamut, in particular Cocacola reds. Ink Consumption. My...

Hi all, in the process of replacing a Dilli Hybrid machine and the Océ is a contender. I really like the large static bed and the white + varnish option is one I will be able to make great use of. I would like to ask your thoughts on Gamut, in particular Cocacola reds. Ink Consumption. My...
