  1. Laminator media buckling in the middle

    Think of the roller as a "rolling pin" in your kitchen...it has the two handles on either side where you push down. If you push down hard enough,the middle of the roller is going to bow-up (roller deflection) causing you to have less pressure in the middle than sides of the roller....which...
  2. Colorado or not

    Just to further my comments on this model as I may have been vague. The R70R is a belt-driven roll-to-roll printer. It is similar to a Hybrid style printer. However, the platen area below the media belt is more narrow, and it does not have an alignment bar for rigid boards. The printer has a...
  3. Colorado or not

    It is technically a hybrid, but really is just a roll-to-roll. It is one of those "it can print on a board if you have to" kind of units. It tracks quite well. We've got a customer in Ohio who cranks out pallets of cling every month...all roll-to-roll. To my knowledge, no issues there.
  4. Colorado or not

    They do....you can direct message me if you want their information.
  5. Colorado or not

    No....typical UV ink. It has some flex but nothing I'd want to sell someone who is wrapping cars all the time.
  6. Need Help Need help to find a new supplier!

    I've spent most of my career selling through distributors...now I am one. I've always preferred the stronger regional distributors as they have people who actually know what's in the box and how it should or shouldn't be used. A good one is Schillers in St. Louis. Try Derek Arnell over there...
  7. Colorado or not

    Not entirely true. Fluid Color has a device which competes with the Colorado. It is a 70" hybrid with three rows of Ricoh Gen 6 (awesome heads) CMYK and a white head in the middle row so you can lay down white before, after, or in between colors. It is also very fast. Best of all, most of...
  8. Seal 600 Roller Up/Down Switch

    Bill Moxley is great, but seeing you are in Rhode Island you can also try Scott Tessier...he lives in Connecticut. I think he has largely retired but still likely does work from time to time. I'll direct message you what I believe to be his cell. He used to be the top tech at Seal for 20+ years.
  9. For Sale 2 Colorado M5W Pro Units - Available now!

    If anyone is looking for a Colorado M5W Pro (top of the line including white) I'll have two units in stock later this week. If you are in the midwest, we can install and train and service....for those of you beyond, we can arrange for Canon to install, train, and service when needed. let me...
  10. Printer Technician

    out of curiosity, what do you consider ridiculous fees?
  11. help please: Printable frosted vinyl

    I've got great frosted vinyl in stock in Cleveland from Nekoosa. Great pricing as well for a polymeric vinyl.
  12. Need Help Any Suggestions on Laminators

    NOT made in the USA. Made in China.
  13. HELP! - Head striking perf film when printing

    Yes we do. Same price per inch.
  14. First time buyer for Large Format Printer

    Most UV inks are not stretchy....but the Colorado UV Gel inks are. Also 3M and Avery wrap approved.
  15. HELP! - Head striking perf film when printing

    I've got plenty of customers running 300 series latex devices successfully on the Continental Panorama One perf. Great product and excellent pricing. I've had a number of people say that our pricing for 164' rolls is the same as Briteline's 100 foot rolls. We sell 54"x164' rolls of 70/30...
  16. For Sale Baby it's cold outside....

    Just thought I'd share that I've got a range for adhesive vinyl which can now be applied in temperatures outside down to -5 degrees Fahrenheit. I've got 5 and 7 year calendared films...some with air-egress, some with smooth liner. I've also got a great 6mil with air-egress for exterior windows...
  17. Wrinkled pop-up banner solution?

    Try Synaps. It is AWESOME. Latex approved. Lays perfectly flat in a banner stand (or when hanging). If you can't find anyone down in Texas who stocks it, I sell 36"x200' rolls for $243.42 for the 8mil. It is a synthetic media that feels like a polyester.
  18. hp poster paper

    That's odd that an HP branded media is having that reaction. I sell a ton of paper called Performance Paper which has latex saturated properties so the paper is softer and doesn't react that that initial heat. 54"x164' rolls are only $148. it is a 8mil satin paper.....honestly there isn't...
  19. Oce Colorado 1650 error code

    Did you put the chiller MOD KIT on your chiller yet? It is free and should help....if not for this issue, for other potential issues. If you used a distributor, they can help you. If you didn't, reach out to Canon and request one. No charge. If you have further issues, feel free to reach...
  20. Trade show floor graphics

    Valid concern about someone dragging something over the floor...but even with a laminate that can cause damage. At a trade show, they usually don't polish or scrub the floor at night...only vacuum. That concern would be extremely valid in a retail environment. Don't get me wrong....the...
