that's a new one for me but you may have to do a print alignment. also what does your test print look like

they are metal photo process. https://metalphoto.com/

they can be etched, silk screened or metal photo process. hard to tell for sure but looking at the photo they look metalphoto process. (when you look at the black it looks like it's absorbed in the metal, you can see the brush pattern ) we do that in house. we can do .003, .005 foil the...

white ink whether solvent or UV needs to be shaken daily and if not used you need to run the ink to keep the head firing properly. i actually created a white box approx 4" x the length of whatever material is loaded in the printer that i run every 3-5 days of non-use on the white ink. this helps...

not sure if they have what you are looking for but you can try direct sign wholesale

unfortunately these crazy unexplained things happen but it sounds like it's a drying or curing issue with the ink (or the amount of ink). maybe try doing 1 pass, return to origin, let it dry a little longer then print again with 1 pass. see if that helps/works. hope you get it worked out

we can print direct to acrylic and cut it but we are in NJ. not sure what your quantity is but shipping might be expensive. i would suggest trying to find some one local with a flatbed printer first

by pass do you mean return to origin and reprint or are you doing an over print? i have seen this with the white ink when i would do multiple pass and the previous pass was not dry yet maybe it's just too much ink and that's the effect? why aren't you direct printing to the panels with your UV...

cheapest way is to print direct to the acrylic. you can print on clear and then mount to the acrylic but you will probably need to also back with white vinyl for opacity . reverse/backwards print on clear vinyl, mount white vinyl then mount to the acrylic panels

removal of any aged vinyl sucks but metallic and reflective are the worst. MDX vinyl zapper makes quick work of that

WHEN YOU ARE PRINTING CMYK GRAYS WILL BE AN ISSUE, AT LEAST THAT HAS BEEN MY EXPERIENCE. ROLAND HAS A COLOR CHART BASED ON WHAT THE MACHINE CAN PRINT SO I USE THEIR GRAYS AND THAT GIVES ME THE BEST SHOT. WE RECENTLY GOT A MIMAKI JVC-330 AND WE ARE STILL GETTING FAMILIAR WITH THE MACHINE SO NOT...

i think it's just because it's metallic. metallic doesn't hold up as long as regular colored cast vinyl. especially if it experiences extreme weather conditions (heat, sun and cold)

also before you start check online for your competitors pricing and make sure you can compete with them. custom graphics you should be fine but there are a few companies that have stock items and buy in bulk and keep them on the shelf you might not be able to compete with that pricing

solid color vinyl- cut lettering/striping = no lam digital printed vinyl = lam

we commonly use the .030 magnetic. i have put it through our roland printers and it was ok but seems to encounter static issues. we have run it on our uv flatbed printers with no issues. the only thing that i think can be an issue when using a roll printer is if the magnetic sticks to anything...

been using fellers for like 22yrs and there have been a few hiccups here and there but overall happy with their service. agreed you definitely want to get a hold of your local rep and work through them when you can. they can help with internal issues and also with discounted pricing. the one...

first question is what kind of work do you have for the UV printer and how much do you need to print? all the machines you are asking about are great if used to their strengths. we have a fuji acuity true flat bed, efi hybrid and a roland hybrid (that one has been a work horse and been around a...
