  1. Mei Tu Tech Printers (DX5's), anybody using it? any comments?

    i just bought a used chinese jv33 clone.... in a pinch... jv3 has cancer or something.
  2. Who's UV printer has the best quality print

    CET Q series with Ricoh heads
  3. how big is your facitily

    it's getting weird over here. i've been using my entire house and a 1400 sqft tent out back as a space. now with this partnership that i'm signing, the new space will be at least 14,000 sqft expandable to 20,000sqft. it looks massive until you fill the floor plan with equipment. i am in...
  4. Looking at the Jetrix 3015.

    so three OEMs building the same printer designs. price competition larger user base more techs for advanced repair and install greater established spare parts distribution could soon be the de facto flatbed.
  5. Looking at the Jetrix 3015.

    flora, aojet, and cet are all the same printer right down to the fuses and number of allen bolts. (the sticker on the front is different) that design is so solid and tried and tested. i can't come up with much of a rationalization for experimentation with equipment.
  6. Looking at the Jetrix 3015.

    none of those OEM's ever made a 5x10 (as far as i know). it goes from 4x8 straight to 6x10 nothing in between. it's a very standardized build. it is the km 512, AO-Jet has a staggered three head head carriage (3x cmyk, then the balance of the 15-16 heads depending for white and varnish...
  7. Looking at the Jetrix 3015.

    CET, AO-Jet, and Flora all make a 6x10 "CET" flatbed. AO-Jet currently has two 6x10 konica flatbeds in stock/ready to ship. i recieved AO-Jet samples the other week and the samples look spectacular. contact nicky for further questions/pricing about AO-Jet (the prices are compelling). aa
  8. need source for printing wall wrap project

    i'm in between printers right now and have an order for several 9x12 and 6x8 wall wraps (indoor, hospital). does anyone have some suggestions on a good source to job this out to? i'm in the houston area. thanks aa
  9. yellow ink making a mess

    a data swap would show if the head is bad or not. if this tech does change the head, HANG ON TO IT!... there's an 80% chance that it is fine. i'd be suspicious of any tech that doesn't actually diagnose the printer. we'd never settle for that with a car. "well sir, let me start switching...
  10. yellow ink making a mess

    before switching the head, do a damper swap, a data swap, ...you can even do cap top swaps and pump tube swaps on some models. heads can be proven or dis-proven to be the cause of an issue. there's not "guess it's the head" in printer repair.
  11. Mimaki JV3 160 SP RIP Software

    i would really appreciate any help getting some kind of temporary rip. i've had a very expensive/rough last month. my jv3 had some electronic issue that just would not isolate and fix, then i had a "meltdown". so i, in a pinch, just bought this jv33 clone off of craiglist. it will arrive...
  12. Mimaki JV3 160 SP RIP Software

    where does one download rasterlink pro5 sg? i just see updates. i have a chinese jv33 clone being shipped to me next week from florida and would like to see if pro5 will run it before getting something different.
  13. JV3 160sp black dropping out after 3-6 passes

    the different colors are all chemically, exactly the same. any contamination will be color only and go away in a few minutes. there's no other way to isolate this issue without doing a damper swap.
  14. UVJ-640 skew fix

    tilt the back table very slightly into the nip. it will increase the down force on the pinch rollers and reduce "scratching" (when the bottom wheels turn and lose steps in the x direction due to lack of traction.
  15. Calling all Geeks - Mars Lander?

    what's the best link to follow this. i didn't know this was today. !!! got it. only works on chrome browser.
  16. JV3 160 sp color washed out or magenta lines

    are you familiar with a data swap? here are two renderings that show the way to do it.
  17. JV3-75spii Wont Print

    hope it's not doing the ghost printing thing. that is jv3 cancer. i'd read these two threads to see what should have worked if it is the same issue. http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?t=96324&highlight=blank http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?t=97157&highlight=ghost
  18. Adhesive Remover

    depends on what you're trying to remove. buytl cellosolve will get inside a sticky pressure sensitive adhesive and turns it into boogers of rubber. also it has no cutting ability so you can wipe it on just about anything.
  19. JV3 160 sp color washed out or magenta lines

    i seriously doubt it can be the head. one way to prove that theory would be to do a data swap. this would help you track your vertical line source. my assumption is if you data swapped black and magenta, black will be the one printing the vertical line. also, remember that a vertical line...
  20. Cyan overspray - gotta finish a print for tomorrow

    the best way to tell if you do or do not have a static issue is to get a piece of media that is giving you the issue. get a piece of soft cloth and agressively wipe half of it. the area you wipe will run vertical to the direction of the print. not do a test print. by wiping the media, you...
