  2. Intro to Wall Graphics / Wall Murals

    You can do a search for 3m wall graphic install instructions and you find everything you need to know. Previous post is correct. Always do pull test or you will get burned. Paint and primer are the main pain points. Then it comes down to bleed - 1” or 1/2”. You will figure it out.
  3. Digitech and colex conveyor system

    We have 4 DIgitech LTX3 printers and one of those printers is hooked up tot he Colex cutter. My pressmen love it for small jobs and long runs. It keeps to jobs in order so packing is a breeze and I highly recommend. We are currently in the middle of adding another set of conveyor tables to our...
  4. Mobile Lift Table

    Is anyone using a table that can be lowered or raised either manually or automatically? I have a flat bed and want to offload media onto a table and be able to raise and lower the table. The ones that I have seen would work but they are small 4'x8' or 5'x10'
  5. Canon Colorado M Series.

    I spent a lot of time in Chicago looking at this machine. I was impressed. We have a Digitech and the white on Digitech is impressive also have an Epson S80 with white - no near as impressive but works well and the color is amazing on Epson eco solvent. To me the genius of the Colorado is the...
  6. Advice on buying a UV Flatbed printer

    We have R2000 and I don’t recommend it. You can find plenty for sale on global garage that didn’t pass muster. If your volume was fine on the FB and you don’t need anything more than I would suggest Epson or even mimaki flatbed. Not a fan of vanguard. Know a couple of people who had them - made...
  7. Canon Colorado M Series - Ink still cracking??

    I am looking at buying a Colorado M series printer with white ink. I went to a demo and was impressed but after talking with other companies (4) they are getting rid of theirs. All of them said the ink was cracking when stretching the vinyl and all of them were vehicle wrap related. We do a...
  8. Need Help UV Flatbed Recommendations

    I am a little late to this thread but I am going to DEMAND that you look at DIGITECH. The Digitech is hands down the best investment that any print owner can make! WHY? - Resale value, First and Foremost - This printer is built to last 10 years (excluding heads) minimum. There is nothing on...
  9. About to buy the HP 700w

    The main difference between the HP's and the Epson's are color consistency. Epson uses Piezo Print heads which is incredibly accurate years later. You can print the same file a year later and be confident it is going to be an exact match. Both Eco-Solvent and Resin (Latex) printers from Epson...
  10. Suggestions Looking for a flatbed printer

    I have to disagree with the CMYK or "LIGHTS" comment on the Digitech. For starters, I currently work for one of the largest Large format companies in the country after having been a small printer for 20+ years. We are putting Digitech through the paces and I have done a lot of Due Diligence...
  11. Looking for a laminator and XY cutter

    Only you can know whether it makes sense financially. The Kala laminator is a great machine and there are two options which I am sure you are aware. As far as the XY cutter - I haven't used the Kala but I have used the Fotoba X and XY. There are several models but the cuts are not as accurate...

    I am looking for a supplier that can create a sign that is dimensional in the shape of a 9' coin. My thought is that foam would be the best option here. Do you know of any wholesale suppliers?
  13. Acrylic Gift Card Holder - Need a Supplier

    Thank you for the suggestions. I called displays to go - but they do not offer any type of wholesale pricing. The problem I ran into is when I quoted customer off of Displays2go the customer was saying that I was higher. I guess this is one of those items where I tell him to go direct. Thank...
