flatbed

I am looking for UV Flatbed printing services for golf ball customization in the Long Island / NYC metro area. I am trying to test a product concept so I need a supplier with a UV printer on site. In researching golf ball customization, I've found that a flexible UV ink and primer are required...

JFX200-2513. I am having problems with the white ink. It is creating almost like a mist, deflection, or shadows to our prints. I have replaced the white ink filters, put in new white ink. I changed the head gap to 1.5mm, I have done all the digital alignments. Have adjusted the head voltage. We...

I use a Scitex FB750 with Onyx rip software. I'm trying to figure out how to underflood only a portion of an image. I've attached a screenshot of the file I'm trying to accomplish this with. The portion outlined in red has a solid spot color behind it. I need that to underflood, but I need the...

I'm trying to print a very detailed CAD drawing on a Canon Arizona 1360 flatbed using the roll media option. The paper roll is 36" wide. The plan's very detailed and I need to use a high quality setting. I resized it to 35.80 so it won't spill off the edge of the paper if it's not perfectly...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a little guidance here. We got a JFX200 a few months ago, and ever since we haven't been able to get consistent prints on the bed. When we do a head height check across the bed, it's all over the place. I've had multiple techs in from the distributor we purchased it...

I recently got a hold of a Graphtec FC4500-50 flatbed. So far, so good & I'm getting a hang of the machine and menus. It's clearly showing its age, but it all makes sense somehow and the machine does the job. I ran into an issue & I have a question that someone here might be able to answer...

Hey all. I am selling our Digitech Retrojet. We purchased this machine about 2 years ago and it is a total work horse. This machine prints beautifully up to a 5’x10’ panel. 4’x8’ prints in just under 3 minutes We are selling to upgrade to the Digitec Tru-Fire 1 minute per board $350k machine...

Running 8' mesh banner material, and I cannot get it loaded without serious walking. I think the foam covered bars might be worn and uneven. I was wondering if anyone has tried running without the wrap-over bar. Just going directly from the supply bar to the bed with only the weighted bar on...

I am fairly new to using Summa GoProduce with our Summa 1612 cutter flatbed. My question is this, when I import the .pdf file into GP, it takes my dashed lines and makes them continuous. My dashed are lines are used for creasing/fold points graphics edges in weird angles and curves. I checked...

The lm printhead on our HP FB750 printer has shot an error message for several months now, saying that the "printhead warmer is too warm" or "printhead warmer failed." I knew this would eventually lead to total printhead failure, and now since we're at that point.. does anyone have any advice...

is anyone using a Konica Minolta AccurioWide 160 or 200? We're in the market for a flatbed/hybrid, and we are considering the KM AccurioWide 200. Wondering if anyone has experience with this machine? Curious if it can print ink thick enough for braille signs? Also wondering your overall thoughts...

Hey y'all, Looking for info on the Canon Oce Arizona 460 - if you are using it, do you love it? hate it? any tips, tricks, concerns, etc? Also looking for a base price point on the Arizona 460 - we are looking at a few different machines, just got some budget approval, so i'm trying to...

We took delivery of our HP FB550 two years ago. We do a test print every morning and several heads require multiple purges to get back to an acceptable level. This is happening more and more recently. I am wondering if this is related to the temperature in the room where the printer is. We...

What is the value of late 2012 CET Flatbed printer 4x8 CMYK plus W? Trying to figure what its current value might be - I believe they went for $150k when new. Thanks

We are replacing our 2012 (received January 2013) CET X-Press QX 4x8 Flatbed Printer. It has one row of heads CMYK plus White. White is not working, but otherwise printer is used most days. We have records of all issues and maintenance. Should be a good value for someone looking to add such...

Dear all, I just joined the forum today, but been a long follower of signs101 forum. I hope I can contribute more in the future. Right now I need some help with my Fujifilm Aquity EY flatbed printer, it has clogged black color printhead, which is fix only by cleaning it many times. The...

Hello everyone, we are just doing some casual shopping around for new UV Ink supplier. We have no issues with our current supplier, just looking around. I found a site called Nazdar and they have inks, they are not named like "96 Series" but I do believe they run in our machine. I was wondering...

So we just purchased a CET flatbed printer and we have ran corrugated on it no problem all day. Well today I had a customer who wanted a map on foam board, I decided to give it a go and no matter what I do the print head strikes the edge of the board, usually right a the end of the print. I...

Having issues with AGFA M4F not wanting to print pure color. The print will print perfect color and density for about 3-5in then it will slowly bleed off. Had to reinstall the wasatch application a few weeks ago and lost all ICC configs, slowly trying to recreate them but still cant seem to get...

Just out of curiosity, what is the weirdest thing you've printed on using a flatbed? We recently started printing on ceiling tiles and have had some success. This got me thinking, "what else can we print on?".
