You do save a bit, polycarb roll stock isn't cheap (at least not up here, not sure about the USA) Even if you are replacing the plastic, you still need 2 trips, as you need to get an accurate measurement of the plastic in order to cut the new panels to the correct size, so still 2 trips with...

Up untill the Tru-vis machines, Epson manufactured the solvent ink for all Roland Printers, so I can;t see there being an issue with Epson's yellow but Roland's being fine it doesn't make sense.

It's pretty common, we do it ourselves if the panel isn't very old, bit we always warn the client that there is a chance the panel won't be salvageable, in which case we will need to order in new plexi. Bottom line, if the plastic is in good shape, there is no need to replace. Reduce, reuse...

Actually the Epson is faster than the HP as shown in this video .

I don't worry about it, 9 times out of 10 the people who say this never become clients, they will end up buying something online then complain the quality sucks.

yup the whole country shuts down for like a month, it messed us up last year a bit.

I'm running onyx thrive 12.2 As for firmware, it has never been updated since the printer was installed 15 or so months ago, .According to the Epson dashboard it is running the most recent firmware. Out of curiosity is anyone who is experiencing this issue connected to the printer over USB...

just to update this, i disabled all sleep and power saving on the rip computer and it happened again this morning at the start of a 60 foot run, about 18" in the printer just stopped.

I have my doubts about your old printer being able to print well after sitting unpluggged for so long. I would start calling other dealers in the area and schedule some demos on new printers for early next week, If your current dealer has been dragging their ass on getting you a replacement...

I'm always blown away when I do work for other shops and see just how bad some of their cash flow management is, quite a few shops out there using deposits from tomorrow's job to pay vendors for last month's projects. Had a guy pick up $150 worth of engraved signs, wanted to pay me in 30...

lol good catch!

I highly reccomend using a password manager for your passwords, I've been using keepass and it's been great, you can generate unique strong passwords for each site you use, and you only need to remember 1 password. there are a few other similar services that integrate with the cloud, but...

Glad to hear they are doing the right thing!

I'm willing to bet your printer is still sitting at Roland's office in California waiting for some red tape, tell them to prove it, give you a tracking number to show it's actually on the road on it's way to you, I guarantee you they can't give you one

So far it's only happened 2 or 3 times, but I would still like to find out why before it does it 20 feet into a 25 foot banner.

it's oddly unsettling how similar our experiences are, we were also severely delayed in getting a replacement printer, the excuse I got was that the upper brass at Roland need to sign off on any replacement they send out, and they weren't convinced it needed to be replaced despite our tech and...

bump... anyone?

Recently we have had an issue come up with our SureColor S80600 which is around 16 months old now, We send a job from Onyx Thrive, the job starts to print as normal but randomly stops mid way through, after a few minutes Onyx will show the job as being completed and move it to the archive, and...

Yes you can, but you will use almost 50% of a full cartridge just doing the ink line fill on the new machine.

I understand that, but based on my experience running laser engravers for over 15 years, cutting acrylic is a very smelly process, I've seen the BOFA units on some roland UV printers and I can still smell the ink, I don;t think they would work that well cutting acrylic. We have ours vent...
