easy!

all our stuff is apple, i just love the operating system, so much better than windows in my opinion. it is all overpriced tho.

That wrap is Freakin' sick!!

It doesn't have to run uni-direction to print metallic.it works bi-directional, you can also print cmyk Mt & Wh all at the same time,its freaky to watch,I did it withsome window decals that had to be backed white with metallic ink in the middle. The capping stations are crap tho,had to give it...

Interesting.......I'm gonna see if there's something like this happening in the UK,at that rate I could fill the machine up for free!

my Friend did the bulk of the design, he had final say on it, i know the back is a little difficult to read!! As for the $500.. your not far off!!

very true!! the solids are wicked too!

I have one, its awesome.slow....yes depending on what your doing.it kicked out 5m in 2hrs this morning at 1550mm. print quality is unmatchable in my opinion, does depend on the file tho. its great for gradients!

oh the peak was a print & wrapped in one piece!

As for the $$$ its ok, but only ok. i didn't lose any money but didn't make any real profit! i could easily do two in a day if they were of the same design & that would make it a great job! I'd only turn down doing them when we are real busy! Steve

This is always an issue, I tend to only use rolans colours when designing,that way I know what they will come out like,the same colour varys on different media aswell,I have a roland colour swatch printed in standard mode & the 'max impact' mode as I like the strong colours max impact gives, but...

It was about 2hrs to wrap it black,used a touch of primer here & there. The templating. & design was about 6-8hrs and the application of the prints was about an hour,a days work really. We made the printed bits overlay the two joins to hide them & to stop them peeling back!

Thanks for the nice comments!

Hi, We did this last week, wrapped it all over in black them added the printed design over the top ( we made templates so it fitted nicely) did the main wrap in 3 pieces, left,middle & right.It took about 2 hrs to wrap them 1 to put the prints on. turned out to be good fun! Steve
