We use Marabu inks in our vg540. We didn’t make the switch either! The Marabu inks are plug and play. Been using them for over two years with no issues at all!

Check if your pinch rollers have cracks. Also, turn your heat off when cutting. These printers aren’t really that accurate after so may feet / inches. A dedicated cutter such as Summa or Graphtec will produce much more accurate cutting on long runs.

This took me back to some of oldpaint's (rants) posts! So true!

Hmm...the specs say 5m of accuracy for the CE. I guess it all depends on adding more registration marks.

We are looking at purchasing a dedicated cutter. Need better accuracy than what our Roland VG can produce. Narrowed in down to either the Graphtec CE7000-130 or the FC9000-140. We don't do huge production runs of decals, etc. There's about a $3500 difference in price. According to specs there...

Similar in texture and lay flat properties.

Inquiring too see if anyone knows of a banner material similar to Decolit?

Thanks…that’s good to know

Ok thanks...client insists on chrome and I'm staying away from the metallized films! The cut vinyl lettering would only be a couple inches high.

I have a customer wanting chrome lettering and graphics on his truck. I'm curious how this chrome vinyl cuts on the plotter?

Well I didn't really find it...found an old eps file of it.

Found it!

The subtle serif is what's throwing me off... Thanks in advance!

I’ve heard good things about Substance. It’s too bad we can’t get it in Canada.
