Hi Guys, First of all, please forgive my ignorance or stupidity if I'm going about this the wrong way. Background - We've had a VS-640 since brand new and have always used Versaworks. 1 year ago we brought in a Vutek GS2000LX Pro and it came with Fiery XF and a license for an additional...

I'm looking at purchasing an F1612. Just wanted to see what people liked/disliked about them and if there is anything that current owners found out after the purchase that they weren't happy with? Any info would be appreciated! Cheers,

Hey there, I'm at the ISA show today and was looking at the Stratojet's. Can I ask how you like yours, what you don't like about it, and how you've found support / reliability from them? Any advice would be appreciated, cheers!

Sorry, that's my lack of terminology. Here's the what both machines state: EFI Pro 16H "Up to four levels of variable-drop grayscale" EFI Pro 16h Wide Format Printer EFI H1625-LED "Up to eight levels of variable drop grayscale" EFI H1625 LED Wide Format Printer So I guess we're talking levels...

Background info: So as per some of my other posts, I'm looking at the EFI Pro 16H Hybrid. We were looking at the 24F which is the true flatbed but limits us to 4' X 8' and since we mainly print Coroplast, Sintra, Styrene, Acrylic and Vinyls, we figured that the hybrid gives us a wider area (64"...

We're looking for hybrid UV printer and based on my research and budget, I've narrowed it down to EFI for the most part. Two companies rep EFI in my area and I've got conflicting info from them. One guy says that the new 16H is faster but that's because it has 4 levels of grayscale not 8 so he...

We've been outsourcng our UV & White ink work to a few suppliers and are looking at bringing it in house now. One of my reps has recommended the EFI Pro 24F but because we're new to this aspect, I'm not sure what some comparables would be and it its a good fit for us. Does this model sit on the...

Well, its fixed now :) The tech came out Monday afternoon with some spare blades. swapped it out and it worked fine with normally pressure settings. Upon further inspection of the blade that was in there, he said he's never seen a blade like that and it must have shipped from the factory with...

Thanks for the reading the full post ;)

Which one would the machine have came with? Is one better than the other for thicker materials?

I'm having some issues with the cutting pressure on my new VS640 (2 weeks old). I'm using Oracal 3268 which is a 6mil removable wall vinyl to produce contour cut decals. I had everything running great around 80grams did a few sheets of various types, set the take up and started a run of 700 only...

Ordered my vs640 the other day and its due to show Monday or Tuesday. Paid 18,900 with take up, roll of vinyl, 440cc inks, install, training, software. Seemed like a pretty good deal, plus they offered me a good trade in value for my sp300

Thanks for all the replies everyone. While there were definately some good ideas suggested by people, someone else made the decision easy for me......... my wife gave birth yesterday and we just got home this afternoon so I'm outsourcing this headache and forgoing the good profit so I have some...

Looking for some advice. My client is looking for 2 rolls that are 12 inch by 90foot. Its a full colour, continous print and they'll just cut the amount required on a day by day use for around their office. I have an SP300 and got 2 roll of 15" X 150' Gloss White Perm Vinyl thinking that I would...
