  1. New Desktop Build Help

    Hi, Go to a less expensive motherboard and spend the money on an M.2 SSD not a SATA SSD. Also choose a different GPU. AMD one only has 2GB ram. Very low. CPU is good. PSU is fine. Would probably be fine with 64GB of RAM as well. What is your budget?
  2. Media Recommendation for T Shirt size labels

    Hi, We are looking to print with our Roland RF-640 a custom label to apply to t-shirts. Something like this https://www.uline.com/BL_1287/Strip-Size-Labels but not clear as we dont have white print capability. I was thinking a material similar to those "Hello my Name is" type label people write...

  4. Roland RF-640 will not print

    Just recently picked up a RF-640 that was repossessed. It has been sitting for a while. Guessing a few months. Installed the ink and tried a test print to check nozzles and nothing at all printed. Performed a powerful clean twice still nothing shows up on test print. I noticed during the...

  6. Advice/Help/Info Needed Please

    Should we just not do wraps? How can we find a true cost? So, my comparison isnt fair? He is much older than I am, and he sometimes thinks he knows better than me. In this case he could be right i guess. Just seems like we are wasting our time comparatively. I even suggested outsourcing printing...

  9. LEDs in Flourescent Bulb Light Box

    Hey, We have a client who has an old light box on their building. We have replaced the acrylic and new printed translucent vinyl. Unfortunately, the flourescent bulbs wont light up. Instead of trying to diagnose the specific problem, I thought why not put some of those LEDs that channel letters...

  11. Do your heads look like this?

    That I dont know. I know that it has been over a year, because that's when I started getting more into the sign side of the business. The cap tops are consumable parts just as the wipers and blades yes?
  12. Do your heads look like this?

    Thank you for the quick reply's. A year or so ago we did use some non oem ink, but quickly changed back after a cartridge or two of the non oem. Roland ink only since. The wipers were replaced last month and cleaned last week. The pic may not show it well, but the edge of the black on the cap...
