  1. What is wrong with this print head?

    No one seems to know how or when this happened so I can't even speculate as to the cause. This is the yellow head I edited for visibility. This is on an Oce 365 GT and the other yellow head is fine.
  2. Selling a flatbed?

    We've got an Oce 365 GT we got in 2016 and it's been amazing with very few problems even after a cross country move. We're considering upgrading though to get a little more speed and capability but I'm wondering how most people go about selling a huge piece of equipment like this. Having already...
  3. Best Computer for designing??

    Build your own. Anything else is just a waste of money. This is one PC I built years ago and it's still extremely fast. This is just missing a video card which does not need to be fancy. This same build today would cost even less. The PC I'm on now I recently built with an i7-10700 and it's...
  4. Best laminate for UV inks?

    Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll look into these ones so far. We use it to protect logos for displays against water/moisture and people using cleaning products to wipe them down. Indoor only. Once we apply it to the print, which is on acrylic, we cut the print to size on a miter saw. So...
  5. Best laminate for UV inks?

    We're looking for a new laminate to put over ridged substrates printed on an Oce UV Flatbed. We've been using a mactac polycarbonate because it has an extremely strong adhesion but it's just getting too expensive. Something like $800/roll. Can anyone recommend a clear laminate that resists...
  6. Need Help LED Power supply help

    54 watts is a huge demand. That would drain a 12ah motorcycle battery in about an hour. 9 volt batteries wouldn't last more than a minute if it even turned them on at all. 12 (volts) x 54 (Watts) / 60 (minutes) = 10.8 That means it will completely drain a 10.8ah 12v battery in one hour. You...
  7. Supply 55 Inks?

    Does anyone have any experience with third party inks from Supply 55?
  8. Oce Arizona Ink Supplier And/Or Alternative

    I glanced at it then came here. I was hoping for someone that had good experience with a third party since it's a big gamble to switch to an unproven source.
  9. Oce Arizona Ink Supplier And/Or Alternative

    Apparently the distributor I purchased my printer & ink from has been fired by Oce or whatever and Oce has no replacement for them in my area AND they're refusing to let me buy direct from them. So, I'm looking for either an online source for Oce ink or, seeing as my warranty just expired and...
  10. Print room flooring

    Wish we could do epoxy but I doubt the owners of our building would appreciate a small of patch epoxied floor in the middle of the warehouse when we leave. =/
  11. Print room flooring

    I'm looking to add flooring to our print room. Right now it's that same gross looking concrete as the rest of our shop with decades of stains, paint, holes and whatever else. It's also hard to see dust and debris that has accumulated since it blends in with the floor. I was thinking either some...
  12. LEJ-640 FT UV Flatbed problems. Ending my silence

    Exactly. Roland is just completely full of **** and won't admit there is a glaring flaw with their design. Two different Roland techs tried two different RIPs on mine and the results were identical. They will literally tell you anything to blow you off for even one more day. I feel like I have...
  13. LEJ-640 FT UV Flatbed problems. Ending my silence

    :ROFLMAO:
  14. LEJ-640 FT UV Flatbed problems. Ending my silence

    After having 5 different techs come out to tinker with our belt we tried to lube up the belt/pully as there was a little vibration but that didn't do anything for us. Using a slower head speed was one of the first things I tried and it resulted in even worse banding because there were no...
