in the jv3 manual there's an explanation about how to tell your printer that you've "weighed" the cartridge and want to show 20-40 more ml's of ink or something ...??? i'd figure the jv33 would have the same.

logos don't (shouldn't) have sparkles or light sources or anything. a logo is a brain tattoo.

that is odd. of all the printer repair companies i've ever used, macmedia takes there service to practically religious perfection. kent on many occasions has stopped what he's doing to drive back to the post office to do an emergency over night. i believe he was out of country a few weeks...

i think it needs an extra "t".

one trick i'd do for lining up would be to drill the home position in the drop are to the table. then pivot the opposite corner to square it up. an i-cut can just go find the part. but what's the fun in that? all this blasted technology and robots taking over the world and I****##+(&*&_+++.....

or the loser-laser?

@sebstienL i need to come up with a cool name for my laser set up. if anyone needs some kind of low budget registry, i'd high recommend using this system. about $100 at harbour freight and you're good to go. just mount them at the corners of the cnc out of the way. mine get mounted on a...

"cut to registry?" you mean like an i-cut system. with my shopbot, i print cross hairs or a tiny "trim to" line around the part, then i paint the cnc table with lasers from above. line the part up with the edge of the laser and go. it's usually accurate within 1/16". i suppose with a...

nothing better than a "used both" opinion. brand loyalty is more of a meme than anything.

in the past i looked at axyz as the "slightly better" machine. john knott, the fabricator (very high end) had issues with one in the past and service techs to houston were an issue. from one of his emails: "All I know is when I moved in with this sign company a couple of years ago the had...

i need to purchase a large cnc (6x10 to 6x12 or larger) and i'm hoping i can get some opinions on what might be the best OEM. this machine would be used about two hours a day or less on average. bit changing not a must, mostly trimming and knocking down substrates. a tangential head would be...

can you "count" the passes visually shifting from eight to four pass when it changes? i remember way back, there were a few discussions on the yahoo jv3 group about a printer switching passes. ...and you kinda "have to" do data swap eventually to prove where the magenta line is coming from.

the plot thickens... i do need a lot of odd control. i've got the 16 heads right now it's set up for W+CMYKcm+W. i'm needing something more like W+CMYK+SS+V. i'm going to contact caldera tomorrow. really appreciate all the heads up.

i've heard nothing but the best reviews about colorgate. unfortunately, with CET being a smaller builder, they haven't been picked up by too many RIP oems. i'm sure that will change in the next few years. CET is at a critical mass point and will start giving HP fits soon.

thanks for the heads up on caldera. i looked into caldera and couldn't find any confirmation that it had white/spot ink support. also a CET tech confirmed that onyx was the only white ink rip. that said, i wouldn't be surprised if caldera added white ink just lately. everything runs white...

oh yeah. that was a very low anxiety moment. i turned it on and was off and running with the front panel.

it originally was running on wasatch and identified as a jv33 in the rip. i hoping onyx production house will run it because i'm stuck with that on the CET. if it prints well, which i'll bet it does, than i'd much prefer valveless, chipless, low tech printers. i still miss using my old...

i have to get onyx production house for running a CET flatbed along with a few other printers (canon ipf 9000, jv3 160sp, and a jv33 clone). does anyone know of some discount sources to purchase onyx production house? i'm seeing $4700 as the "lowest" price. that's not "low". i think i can...

i'm sure i'll be selling the CIS. i just need the carts. these carts have a long float inside that pinches the line when floating horizontally. very simple system. good or bad, this thing is smooth. it has a very light touch, very quiet. my jv3 can be heard from the next room just...
