Hey guys! Has anyone on here purchased or used the Roland EU-1000MF flatbed printer? I’ve read the reviews for the LG 640 UV printer, and it got me fearing roland’s uv printer line-up. My shop is running 4x roland printers at the moment, so i would rather stay in the roland ecosystem. Thanks!

Soooooooo, no one?

Hey guys! I am looking for a shop that can make channel signs for us. my usual supplier has to close his shop for a few months due to health problems, and my second supplier has a waiting list of over 6 months. The project that we are currently working on has an "if possible" installation...

Interesting! So i am guessing they are not compatible with other printers, and sold as a kit? I am from quebec, are there technicians available in the province?

Hey guys! We are looking into getting a UV flatbed printer and a zund cutting table, and I recently saw in a promotional video a loading and offloading system for sheets that uses suction cups, to feed the printer, and than unload the printed sheet and move it to the cutting table. Anybody...

It’s great reading you guys! Everything seems to go back to workflow software rather than automating hardware. In that line of thoughts, i am already in the process of building a software that theoretically will check a lot of those boxes, although i am stuck in one of the final stages, being...

Thanks for the assist! It seems i can’t open your link. Do you mind sending it to me by email? I’m very interested in checking it out! Renaud@sortrac.com Thank you!

Hey guys! I’m trying to figure out the best way improve my shop’s workflow, wether it’s by automating some processes, or finding a better process than having hundreds of work orders printed out and scattered around the shop. Here is the basic layout of my shop (after sales, quotes and graphic...

Hey guys! Like a lof of people i’m sure, we’ve suffered from major price gouging from many of our suppliers. I’m looking into importing my large printable media (vinyl, banners, heat transfer etc) and my eco solvant inks directly from china in bulk in one or two shipments for the year. We...

Anyone?

Hello! I just received my roland GR2-540, and finished installing it on versaworks (v. 6.17.0). I am however not able to drag and drop a printed file from any of my printers queues to my plotter’s queue. (Ex: a print only file with versawork’s crop marks from my vg2, that I want send over to be...

Will do. I was more interested to know if it printed on other reflective sheeting for industrial use! For Road signs I will use the compliant vinyl! Thanks a bunch :D

Great! That's pretty much exactly what I was hoping to hear! As for the media itself, can it also print on non printable materials? (like oralite 5800 for example)?

Hey guys ! I was looking to purchase an avery traffic Jet printer, but there seems to be no good Mutoh Technicians in my province. I then stumbled on the Roland DGA TrafficWorks, wich got me excited , since we already run 3x roland printers and 1x roland plotter, but there is no reviews what...

I hear you guys. Thanks for the useful feedback ! with that in mind I will focus on industrial signage, and will just go for local blanks for now, maybe get me a container if it's worth the saving ! Big thanks again!

I get you, but in my area, the 3 main suppliers of said blanks import 4x8 and 5x10 sheets when aluminum price dips , not coils. I researched a lot on the subjet, but there is still so much I don't know

Yeah the quality control is the part that scares me most. I'm guessing mad research and referrals before picking a supplier. I am competitive in all the other products I print. it is really only in reflective signage that my buying costs get too high. the price of the reflective materials...

Well said, I really do not want to be a sign mill as you said, but I do want to be able to quote on gov. projects and be competitive. And by competitive I really do not mean be the lowest bidder. I already know I will be more expensive then my sign focused competition, but with all the "buy...

Hello! I am looking for recommendations / referrals / tips or tricks for importing aluminum sheets for sign making? I would love to purchase domestically, but sadly I just end up not even close to being competitive price wise when I buy blanks, or even when I buy uncut 4x8 sheets. Unless...
