  1. Question Mutoh 1624X running MS31 Inks

    Could be a coincidence and just be time for a new maintenance station. I have not had any issues with the switch over.
  2. Waste Ink

    Find a local hazardous waste company. They will drop off a 55 gallon drum. You call when its full and they come swap it out. We used to do the litter deal but with 9 printers now that was taking too long. I think the last time they picked up we paid $350.00 for the disposal.
  3. Which would u suggest? Mimaki JFX200-2513EX or Epson V7000

    We ran a JFX200 for 3 years. Great machine. We only upgraded to get more speed. If I had the room I would have just added more JFX200's. Little to no maintenance.
  4. Discussion Advantages of UV to a Solvent

    With what you listed as doing UV would not be the best fit for you. UV is great for substrates. The only real advantage of UV roll to roll would be if you needed white ink.
  5. Instead of Banner Tape

    i would find a heavy duty double sided tape not carpet tape. Of course I would just outsource these anyway. You can find plenty of suppliers that will print large banners that have grommets and heat sealed seams for $1/sqft. Not worth the time to print in house and tape them. I only print...
  6. EFI Pro 16h LED Hybrid Printer Feedback

    I have been running the 16H for 2 years now. Great printer.
  7. frosted vinyl

    We use a product from Aslan. It is etched but has the air release in the adhesive to make install easy.
  8. Inkcups X2 machine?

    I would verify with Inkcups but I believe they are all Gen 5
  9. Double Print for translucent digital prints

    I print them in house.
  10. Double Print for translucent digital prints

    The only problem with dumping more ink is it will look dark during the day. There is not real good solution for that outside of printing it normal on the 1st surface then printing second surface on clear. Registration is tough this way though. Or find your self a wholesale printer that can...
  11. Need Help Aluminum / ACM side Zippering

    routing aluminum can wear your bits pretty quick. Do you have some type of lubrication system when routing it? Anytime we start getting rougher edges on our Zund we change the bit and all is good again.
  12. stainless cups made in america

    Going to be very hard to find a stainless cup made in the USA. They are all imported.
  13. Coreldraw 2021 and Font Spacing

    Under fills there is a check box for Uniform Color Fill. Click in the box to put a check mark and then click on the words. I will highlight it all blue and in the box to the right it will bring up the selections. Click the down arrow next to the color and the eyedropper will be there.
  14. Coreldraw 2021 and Font Spacing

    CTRL + F is the quick key to Find and Replace
  15. Splicing Mesh Banner

    I would outsource it. For as cheap as you can get them it doesn't make any sense to do it in house. You may print for $0.50/sqft but your time trimming and finishing the banner wont make it worth it.
  16. UV Ink Fume Air Filtration Options - Bofa Print Pro + Others?

    The 16H is a hybrid and no ventilation on that either. I can run that thing 8 hours straight sitting right next to it with no issues. Out of all our machines the eco solvent is the one that if it runs for long period of times it smells but nothing else.
  17. UV Ink Fume Air Filtration Options - Bofa Print Pro + Others?

    we run the 24F and 16H and no there is not any venting. The 24f is an open true flatbed similar to what a Vanguard would be
  18. UV Ink Fume Air Filtration Options - Bofa Print Pro + Others?

    it surprising how bad some of the UV printers can smell. We run 2 EFI UV Printers and can run them both all day and not produce a smell that needs special ventilation or filtering. The building these run in along with our Eco Solvent and UV roll to roll is 2,500 sq ft so not a huge building.
  19. Opinions on backlit signs with printers that print white

    We print them without an issue with our flatbed. Print a 40% color pass then 100% white the 100% color pass. Our signs have been up for 5 years and still look good. We print on the backside so that helps also. If you wanted you could run them through the laminator for added longevity and...
  20. Question Printing White colors

    Printing white ink for a wrap would be pointless. It will take 2-3x longer to print and add a ton more cost. I would get samples of all the wrap materials and pick the brightest one that works for you. Once you add lam the white wont be as bright either.
