  1. Printing around 1500 sq. ft. per day on value jet need help!

    We get over 1800 s/f/h on our QSR with better quality than any Mutoh Mimaki or Roland at 720. right down to 4 pt text. Sounds like the guy getting 25-300 s/f/h has an older press vu 200/600 those inks do not flex at all either.
  2. Printing around 1500 sq. ft. per day on value jet need help!

    Around $300K list Mfg's are ready to wheel and deal to move machines I bet you can get one hell of a deal right about now.
  3. Printing around 1500 sq. ft. per day on value jet need help!

    Uv Curable is the way to go... Vutek QS or GS series HP/Scitex XP series.. Vutek has advantage that the ink is conformable. We do wraps with our QSR with no issues.
  4. Printing around 1500 sq. ft. per day on value jet need help!

    I would invest in a real production printer that can handle the volume and much more. 1500 s/f can be done in less than an hour with real firepower.....1080 dpi non the less.. Mutohs, Mimakis and Roland will never get the throughput you need. Not to mention the insane ink costs...
  5. ElevenTen_Color

    We just started to use your Luminosity 8.5 mil backlit film. Best inkjet backlit film we have used so far. Print on Vutek qs3200r at 1080 dpi. Quality and media is comparable to the Duratrans we get from our Lightjet but not limited to a 10 foot sheet.
  6. Mimaki CG130FX error

    anyone know what this Error is from and how to override. ERR51 PINCH POS2 It errors out when it gets to the 3rd pinch. Will only read 2 pinch rollers at a max of 15 " wide.
  7. Is anyone running an HP FB950?

    Wildcat would handle all of the Logistics... They even finance if needed. John Traynor the owner is a super good guy to work with.
  8. Is anyone running an HP FB950?

    Chris check out this deal on a QS2000. http://wildcatimaging.com/InventoryDetail.asp?ItemID=0905-001
  9. Is anyone running an HP FB950?

    QS2000 is much more of a production machine. Intended and proven for real print volume... Sure it is more expensive but well worth it. The FB950 is a toy compared to the Vutek.... The only real Scitex production machines were developed and made in Israel not Minnesota... Just like the tanks...

  11. Gandi ink problems

    We had some issues with V2 Cyan did the same thing. The primary filters first get premature clogging then The Manifold gets clogged with crap and then makes its way to the nozzles of the heads and clogs them and cures on the nozzles. They did cover the heads 4 of them and credited service...
  12. Printer Tech in Boston

    Is this Dave Mee??? Long time no talk.. Hope all is well. All of our JV3's are still in production working daily... Still to this day I comment on how the 250sp back in 2003 paved the way to our production evolution.. Best Regards, Michael Failla Operations Manager Big Color...

  14. Gandi flatbed owners

    Not sure if any Gandi flatbed guys have seen the ads or heard of Western Quartz. They make UV lamps for for the 1224 and 3150. The lamps are better than the OEM and only cost $284.00 each. They also have lamps for Vutek QS series at $183.00 each http://westernquartz.com/index-6.html read...
  15. New name, same great sarcasm...

    Greg... I got it. I think the issue is that most here do not know you as well....Or have never worked or networked with you. For the record GP is a cool guy with an awesome company....
  16. Automated flatbed cutters for banner, foamcore, etc?

    We have a Zund L3000. I can tell you it is one of the best investments we have ever made. Takes the place of 4 finishing guys. Anyone who tells you different does not own one. One guy can cut a roll of 60 4 x 8 banners out in 45 minutes. One guy can cut 500 18x24 coros at about 1 hour...
  17. new printhead not firing on one side

    We do.. Just based on history with our bigger production printers. I kind of look at it like changing your old but not the filter. I would say it is a shops working preference on how they operate and maintain machines. What works for one may not work for another.
  18. new printhead not firing on one side

    Not if it is a voltage issue.
  19. new printhead not firing on one side

    next would be the slider board that could of gotten jolted by using new head with old ribbons.
  20. new printhead not firing on one side

    put a brand new ribbon cable on the side of head not firing. Switching ribbons will not work as each color fires at different volts and over time the ribbon cables function based on what connector is "firing hotter" than another. 99.5% sure it is that ribbon cable the new head wants to fire...
