I use primarily Mutoh Equipment but have an old CG130FX Mimaki cutter that is a great machine. I cut regular vinyl with it, but can't seem to figure out why it won't find the registration marks for contour cutting. I have tried type 1 and type 2 registration marks and have the manual for the...
Maintenance Station, Schmaintenance Station!!!
I have a 1204, 1304, and a 1604. I do not pay ridiculous maintenance contracts or ridiculous service calls. Two were bought used and one I bought new 7 years ago from signwarehouse and I have printed like crazy with it. I have no formal training...

Their tools are way too...
It's not fun, but completely doable.
Did a few of these.
The plastics are molded with a silicone type mold release so wrapping one with a new finish is problematic at the least.
when I do one I
1.) Wipe it with Acetone
2.) Wet- Sand the crap out of it with 320 grit
3.) Wipe it again...
I feel your pain, brother!
You don't know how much it made me grin to see this. I had 8 of these and cussed more than in my entire lifetime.
My method:
Standard scaffolding, with one "X" cross brace taken out of one side lets the scaffolding slide right over the front of the van and...
