  1. Sp300v trying to revive after a year sitting idle not plugged in

    I have a Mutoh VJ 1614 parts machine that sat for 18 months. I was told it had a new printhead when the motherboard died. Also the sign shop had an in house saboteur who pulled the lines out of the pump and reconnected to the captop basically bypassing the pump. The guy that bought it didn't...

    Thanks!!!
  3. Managing Scrap Vinyl

    The best way would be a blue print cabinet with thin drawers. Until you get one make shelf 2'x8'x6' tall and shelves 9-10" apart and lay vinyl flat[. works good for small stuff. I made a rack like in Fellerss book for wall for rolls.

  7. Roland SC-500 doesn't power up

    Had one of those, hate to ask but did you make sure switch on back is on?
  8. How should I hang this sign?

    If the pole is secured well enough I tie each end of a good rope around the sign so it's own weight makes it tight. Then I lean a ladder against pole arm and then lift as I go up the ladder with a helper pulling up the sign and slack. He holds while I attach "S" hooks. Done!
  9. Flexi not spacing copies properly

    I have Flexi 8.6 v2 and when I'm printing copies in the Rip & Print dialog box and I set gap to .5" when it prints there is almost an 1.5" gap. Keeps costing me money until I move things around. Any Ideas would be appreciated very much.

    Thanks, you guys are great. I started looking closer at Flexi rip and you can give the exact location to print to the decimal!:signs101:Rocks
  11. New Machine

    Thanks, kind of disappointed with Mutoh. Even a stupid plotter has a start point feature.
  12. New Machine

    Wow!I am so excited we just got a Mutoh ValueJet 1614 And it is one clean machine. We had an old roland SC 500 and it is kinda slow. Does anyone know how to print where I want to print on the media with the Mutoh, the Roland lets you move to position you set and print there.:thankyou:
  13. Price of gasoline, petroleum.. etc.
