I talk to a mutoh sales rep. (not from mutoh but a distributor) about the outdoor jr and he said they were not good printers because your limited to only a couple of vinyls you can print on and they were not good for doing a wrap. Thats not what I wanted to hear considering I just bought one a week ago. Any input from users would be appreciated.
Sounds like someone with something else to sell.
The Jr. will print on any vinyl as any other eco-solvent printer.
The limiting factors are its 36" width and four colors instead of six.
The width can be a bit of a limitation, especially with ambitious wraps and large banners but in some years of printing I can tell you that 98% of everything I print is <=36" and the vast majority of that is on 30" media. Other than banner material I only stock 30" media. It's far easier for one guy to wrangle and the call for wider stuff is sufficiently rare that I only order it if some job or another absolutely positively requires same.
Four vice six color is a non-issue unless you're doing portraits or fine art. For
sign work it's not worth worrying about.
But like every other solventish printer, its reach often exceeds its grasp and running it effectively is far more art than science. The Jr is not unique in this regard.
