  1. Need Help Paint mask for Aqua coat finished signs

    Gino, I called NGlantz and they have no product under that name or anything close. Do you have a part number or a manufacture?
  2. How to get rid of dust on my prints ???

    The dust can be coming from inside your machine. Everytime that print carriage moves back and forth its moving air around inside the printer, not to mention slightly shaking the whole machine which can knock bits of dust and dried aerosolized ink loose. Can you reach under there with a...
  3. 3m etched vinyl won't pick up with transfer tape

    Lol, ,no we don't. :( Its still a PITA here in FL. I will say the blue marked 3M transfer tape does help alot. I also make my cut depth as light as possible, leaving little to no marks on the synthetic liner.

    As im reading your post, it is sandwiched between two ad's and theres an additional one at the bottom of the page. :p
  5. Need a product suggestion

    Interesting, according to their FAQ they have a special applicator system. Should only take aprox. 1 hr per escalator. I would like to see that in action.
  6. Graphtec FC9000-160. No take up roller. How to minimise damage to long cut

    I have the same machine and we regularly cut 48" material 20-30ft in length with no issues. It should just lightly fold over itself in the basket. If you hare having trouble with it creasing and and not folding over nicely and lightly with its own weight, you can try slowing the machine...
  7. looking for small sticker machine

    Graphtec makes a turnkey solution for this kind of thing, but from a glance it seems that it may be limited on what colors it can produce. Check it out. https://www.graphtecamerica.com/lcx603
  8. Prints on clear acrylic

    We do alot of this, we print on 3M IJ8150 Optically clear vinyl with our HP700W. Printed in reverse with a overflood of white ink and with a 1/4" bleed. Prints are then laminated for protection and strength. Plastic is cleaned with sticky rollers several times and prints are either applied...
  9. copy and paste in flexi

    Select your text tool, then click on your artspace as if you were to type something, now you can paste(CTRL+V) text that you copied(CTRL+C) from your email.
  10. I have a project where the client wants 2" depth Aluminium dimensionals studded for install no illumination.

    That doesnt make much sense, they are probably meant to be hollow, with open backs. 2" thick letters would not only be incredibly expensive but also incredibly heavy.
  11. Thinking about buying Graphtec FC8600-130

    In my experience with Graphtec machines, especially the 8000-8600 Series the pinch roller assemblies will eventually fail due to cracks. The part the cracks is these little tabs that fit into the aluminum rail. Once these crack they will not be able to hold the vinyl in place, the material...
  12. 700W Sandwich mode - Color Bars possible?

    So we were able to narrow down the issue to the yellow channel. We were able get a good print by replacing the MAG/YELLOW head that was the oldest. Of the two MAG/YEL heads, one had like 13 hours on it and the other had 1200 hours on it. It was well overdue. We are going to make it a habit...
  13. hp 700 vs epson r5070 yearly expenses and recommendations

    We have the HP700W now for over a year. My heads have lasted fairly long, I think I have replaced them totally once so far except for the white heads which i have replaced twice. Each color has its own head so if you have a failure in one head you can just replace that head. I think the Epson...
  14. What is happening?? (picture inside)

    To me, it looks like your print got sucked up to the top of the curing module(theres fans up there that can create a vacuum i think) before the ink had any time to cure/dry. This caused it to smear on the curing module roof. You should be extending your print down past the curing module a few...
  15. Rolls Roller replacement glass top

    I have always feared this happening to ours. How did it happen to your table? On ours which are over 15 years old, the white plastic has started yellowing from the old original florescent tubes which we have long since upgraded to LEDs. There is no way to get that plastic out to replace...
  16. 700W Sandwich mode - Color Bars possible?

    Hello All, I am having a frustrating issue with trying to get color bars to print on either side of my sandwich print image thru Flexi. I can select the option, I can see them in the preview but they don't print on any layer. I am starting to guess that this is one of those things that is just...
