I too was told that Key Banner was Ultraflex... Or at least manufactured under the same roof. Grimco rep did not confirm... But he also did nothing to deny this statement. He more than likely did more "not denying" than anything though as I'm sure it makes for a good selling tool if people are...

I just went and checked an unopened box of 36" matte that we had got in a box and it does seem just a little bit thinner... Have you noticed any print difference? Thinner material might have effects on heat settings. We used Key for a long time and then swapped to ultraflex jetflex 13oz. matte...

We use Key banner, but I have not noticed any difference in it so far. Although we only use the matte. Think it might be possible that they sent you a roll of K2 banner? It is a new line of Key banner they carry with a much lower denier count.

We were given an Epson Stylus Pro 9000 and It needs a print head, DX2 I think, and not sure if that old of a printer is even worth repairing or not. To clean it out, ink it up, and replace at least one head, and then whatever else has dried up from years of setting around not being used, is...

Our xc-540 does this also after we swapped to 3rd party inks... We usually try to think of it before hand when editing the photos in photoshop and pull back the dark shadows. Different technique for different photos but we try to lighten up the dark shadows by at least 30 percent or so.

That catalog was actually what got our boss thinking about that. Thanks everyone for chiming in and sorry I didn't make myself as clear as I should have in my first post. I already have my hood wrapped (not company related) and that alone generates a good bit of business. So our CEO thought...

Thats for sure ProWraps... quick template and background fill, I actually have a harder time sometimes designing a wrap with no advertising on it.

Just a quick reference to what I was talking about. Sorry bad design I through together for illustration purposes. The little oval in the window would be where it says wrapped by:

Thanks for the info. Our CEO has some off the wall ideas sometimes... When he was talking to me about it I had actually mentioned Buying a few company cars and using those. He wanted to wrap all the employee cars so that when people drove by our storefront they saw the whole line of wrapped cars...

Hadn't thought about it that way, however I know on several customer vehicles that we have customized we may add, at the customers request, the same logo number and website on the lower corner of a bumper or in the back windshield. Would doing similar to that still constitute the vehicle be a...

Not sure where I should post this... but my question is does anyone get paid or pay their employees to advertise on their personal vehicles? My boss is looking for ways to boost our wrap business and he was curious if any employees would be willing to wrap their cars. Pretty much everyone here...

Thanks Bobby, I'll keep you in mind however I have already talked to Intoprint Tech on the issue... but if they fall through I will call you next.

Sorry for not keeping up, busy day at work... AT Inks is the ink we are using. I actually made a separate post about the ink earlier today. It goes into more detail about what all happened. I still have 10 of their cartridges in there that are printing great. Only the cyan ones are the ones that...

We have been using AT Inks for about a year now and have had pretty good luck from them. Good color and only $69 a cartridge. Some cartridges would not tell the printer they were empty. They then came out with a plug and play ink for Roland and we swapped to it. Everything was even better. Then...

Just had same thing happen on our xc540. I got a new manifold and changed it out myself... yes you do have to take the head out. Unfortunately we had more problems and still had to have a tech come spend 3 days working on the printer. Turned out to be a third party ink problem. Swelled lines and...

We use a sharp 60 degree blade and slow the speed way down so it doesn't try to ride up on top of the material. Heavy pressure too. Sometimes we have to find a balance between it cutting through material and part of the way through the backer. I always try to leave unprinted around the edges but...

Thanks guys, I've learned a lot already!
