Currently Running a CET Color Printer Raedeke, We're going into year three with our CET Color printer and have had great results for the most part. I'm sorry to hear Dave Cich has left CET, however, will vouch for him being able to help you. He got us through our minor issues and I'd highly...

Looks like its Kleins Sans Cond Bold, just adjusted slightly. Thanks

This looks to be a stumper... NOT UNIVERSE BOLD. Everything very similar, apart from that 'C'. Hope it's not something easy like a version of Frutiger. THANKS!

Day/Night Film Los Angeles Signs, Hey there. Did you have any luck finding this film? I think what you're looking for is the Day/Night film versus the Dual Color film (which I see some referring to). We are also looking for a small amount at this time, so I'm curious if you were able to locate...

Hi there, We are looking for a vendor to produce (cut, weed, tape) some 3M Diamond Grade vinyl. In particular we are looking to cut some 983-71 (White), but our cutter will not do the job very cleanly. We also have small amounts of 1172, 1175 and 1177 Electrocut Films. The production file is...

Filters Just an update, I heard that it could be a filter issue, so we are looking into that. Hopefully just the LCF filters but will update the post if that is our issue. Or if we find other info, I will relay that as well. Thank you, James

Hey Folks, Just curious if anyone has seen this type of sudden color dropout from a CET printer. We are running an X-Press Q-1000 (10 heads) and are experiencing color dropout while printing and then it will show up in the nozzle test - see attached photo. I know there's not much information...

Thank You! SignasaurusRex, Thank you for spotting that! Effra does not ring a bell, to me at all, but I believe you've nailed it. We appreciate the assistance! Great job! James

Hey Font Folks, This one is so plain we are stumped. If anyone recognizes it please let me know. If not we'll move forth adapting it from something else. Thank you, in advance! James

Thank you for the List! Dzrt1st, Thank you for that list. I didn't seem to notice that when going through Rowmark's site! I'll definitely get in touch with a few of those. I appreciate your help! Thank you! James

Thank you! CES020, Thank you for the JDS vendor. I sent an email and got a response after checking them out on the web. They may not stock exactly what we're looking for, but they can get it so I'm sure they'll be helpful! I appreciate your quick response. Thank you! James

Just curious if anyone knows of a Rowmark supplier servicing the Orange County, LA County and SoCal areas? I know of Johnson Plastics, which is a vendor we've used in the past, but thought maybe there'd be a closer option. Or if you have a supplier which you think the world of, we'd certainly...

Greg, Awesome info - thank you for that. I'm not sure how many of the larger panels we'd run as we typically cut panels to size and paint before graphics are considered. Therefore, nesting several onto a 4' x 8' would require painting the edges, once cut apart. I'm not even sure running several...

Used Indeed Hi Pat, Yes, I was talking about pricing on used machines. The QS2000 is no longer produced (although a similar model with a new name is). I believe you're correct as far as the pricing on the FB500. Last I checked on new, it was about 100k, without the R2R. As mentioned by...

HZone, Thank you for the input! I believe the spec sheets read that the QS is about twice the speed, however, I know what you mean. Is the comparison apples to apples?! Majority of our work would need to be crisp as it will be small text read from two feet away. I'm trying to find a shop...

Ahoy Pat, Arrrrrrgh...no worries. I've been seeing the QS2000s anywhere between 50k - 70k. I believe it's roughly the same for an FB500, although it seems the QS machines are more abundant. We have debate going within the company as to whether it's really worth buying used, but the savings is...

Ouch! Artbot, Total bummer to hear about jobs like that. Of course I think we've all experienced them in one form or another. I know we've had our share over the years, but most recently have just been battling the adjustment to the new paint. As I mentioned we've had color issues with the new...

I'll Check Artbot, Thank you for the input. Yes, I'll definitely have them test the prints in paint. We've been converting over to, what I believe are, low VOC paints within the past couple years. It's been hell for matching colors. Old formulas don't work the same, consistency is no longer...

Hey folks, So we are at a point where we'd like to bring in a flatbed printer of some sort and have narrowed it down to a used QS2000 or ideally a used HP FB500. I've read many posts here, all with wonderful information, on the FB500 and a few on the QS2000. We aren't married to either one and...
