  1. Question What Printer would you stake your business on?

    I don't print that kind of volume on a regular basis, but when I need to, my S80600 will print 2 full rolls 54"x150' in 7 hours on 6 pass mode which is great quality, the S60600 would have no problem handling that every day, you might even get 3 rolls a day out of it.
  2. Question What Printer would you stake your business on?

    I have owned the epson s80600 for the last 2 years and it's been a true workhorse, maintenance is pretty much eliminated, the machine will ask you to manually clean the heads about once a month, which takes less than 5 minutes. If you are running serious production and son't need the orange or...
  3. Chromatic Banding

    I've attached some photos, it's not as evident in the pics as it is in person, but if you look closely you can see banding lines, has anyone else experienced this?
  4. Chromatic Banding

    We have had our S80600 for just over 2 years now, but in the last 6 months I've noticed I get fairly noticeable chromatic banding in certain colours, I just printed a job where I printed 2 full 54"x150' rolls of vinyl to a solid vivid blue colour, and there appeared to be what I call lawnmower...
  5. Suggestions Laser Marking fluid

    I've been laser engraving for over 18 years, we switched to laserbond 100 about 2 years ago from Cermark, havn't looked back, less expensive and the mark is darker as well
  6. Artwork/design pricing and deposit procedures

    On sign projects that require layout, I tell the client the cost is $xxx, that includes the sign and 1 hour of design, any additional time is billed out at $xx, I will let you know how much time is left after each revision so you can adjust your revisions accordingly. Funny how as you get...
  7. Printing in sheets

    I have a job where I need to print a whole bunch of stickers that are 3"x1.5" they all have a unique number on them, I've set the file up and saved it to a multi page PDF with 1 decal per page. Is there some way in onyx where I can print these in "sheets" of say 12"x14" and have onyx...
  8. Custom hole puncher

    at the risk of sounding obtuse, how did you quote the job if you don't know how to make the product?
  9. Discussion Copyright Issues

    It's not worth the money, even if you don't get caught. These types of clients are the ones who will waste your time and demand 30 free revisions on their $45 banner.
  10. How to get lower shipping rates? FedEx & UPS

    We signed up with a third party company, it gave us about 30-50% off the rates we were getting going directly with the shipping companies. It's pretty easy to use, the same couriers pick up and drop off your stuff, but because the third party company has negotiated a huge discount due to volume...
  11. Suggestions rolls roller or Roll Over?

    We have a rolls roller and it's pretty good, it does have some flaws that might apply to all flatbed laminators - when masking cut graphics, the mask has a tendency to wrinkle, especially if the sheet is over 50% weeded away - It's great at short run laminating, but a regular laminator does a...
  12. 48" x 96" digital print mounted to a customer furnished MDO signboard?

    You would only charge $12.50 to mount it? why so little, I would be at least $50 to mount it with our rolls roller. by the time you load the sheet on the table, align the print, mount it and trim the excess you would loose money at $12.50, not to mention if the client chooses to do away with...

  15. News So Long Latex 792 and LX610 Inks...

    This is my biggest issue with HP's consumable heavy machines, you are at HP's mercy for parts. With a typical Solvent machine, if the ink is discontinued, you can continue to run the printer on 3rd party ink until a major part in the printer dies. With HP's disposable print heads you are dead...
