I can't help you with the wrap thing, but try to find more value added jobs. Things that need more creativity, more work, more service. Be very good at something that is hard to do, that it involves a "know how". Those kind of jobs usually have better margins and clients are not going to leave...

Latex printers are doing the best backlights out there duratrans aside. Especially the Lx850, the smaller printers have a hard time drying prints. I have seen some awesome UV backlights also. the secret is to have a quality film and profile. To profile and make a icc you need a transmissive...

Isas plastics are very hard to profile, ink limits and restrictions need to be perfect. For plastics 16 pass will be the minimum for solid colors. You might need 20. But the most important part is your ink limits. Print the ink limit patch but make the patch big so you can look for the...

Lower your ink limits. You sometimes can lower them saving ink and getting the same quality.

Your ambient conditions might have changed? 6-8 pass sounds low for good solid colors in most substrates. We don't print anything under 10 pass, we start losing quality. If you need more printing time these printers work great leaving them printing unattended at night.

I have seen in more than one occasion a good plot but that the head was still making banding in solid colors. I just change head and banding went away. There really aren’t much more elements if it’s doing it in all your different profiles and medias. Only other factor that i could think of...

Its probably your black or/and magenta head. Hope its that,, its easy to fix!

What you see in casinos is mostly duratrans, which is a photographic process. Latex printers are doing the best backlights right now, duratrans aside. but you should be able to print good backlight with a UV printer. Laminate is not very common in backlight, we only use it were costumer will...

So Merritt did you buy the Durst P10 250? How do they stand against the vuteks?

Get a latex 25500 or 26500. They are good printers and are around 5-6k used.

Thanks for your answer nishan. Does the P10 handle well being without printing for let’s say 7-10 days? My kind of work would be print 30 days 24/7 then maybe little to no use for 1-2 weeks and then again. Guys,, thanks for all the info. Has been really helpful. Still have a couple of...

solitary, Danno, thanks for the feedback. Very helpfull. You guys think a production of thousands of .020 styrene boards doable? Fuji and HP?

Yes, thank you for your time, Durst P10 is the one leading my research so it will be very helpful. Are you able to get solid colors especially the difficult ones like dark RED, blues, greens and blacks without the common UV banding? Can you print styrenes .020, .030 without head strikes...

I will like to add printing in .020 styrene is important for us. I have heard is common to get head strikes because is the heat in some printers.

Hello guys, in the market for a flatbed. I have narrow to the three above. Solid colors with no banding is a must for us, looking for top quality printer with good color gamut. We would like to offer the best uv prints the market has. i have seen the three printers working, they all seem...

Run the media farther for the first print. Some material like vinyl and textiles you just need to waste a few feet to make sure that doesn't happen. Heat can make that first part get up and cause the jam. Once it gets rolling it won't be a problem.

You will never grow your business thinking like this. Employes are important assets to any company. Your company is only as good as the people that work in it.

You just need to manually put in the printer the roll size since the printer can't see it. i print very good on polycarbonate film at 16pass on my L26500. Key is to limit your inks to where you get good results.

Ohh,, then is strange. Lexan comes with a liner. Maybe printed over the liner? We have accidentally done it.

Have no idea but You should try printing directly to clear polycarbonate film (I use lexan) it works very good. Then just screen print white in the back and add the adhesive in the back. better quality and cheaper to do. i have made tens of thousands of prints, They have been in stores for a...
