@gvp exotics aside, guiness extra stout is the only real beer that you can get just about anywhere.

the only beer that i have a tear in my eye when i am done and there's no more twisted pine north star imperial porter http://www.beerreviewsprofsudz.com/2012/03/twisted-pine-northstar-imperial-porter.html also avery is a great brewery great quadruple...

thanks for the detailed discussion from both rucksman and sightline. i'm amazed at the amount of technical knowledge on this subject. @chigagographics this issue seems to be isolated to the dot size. high or low or very very low, i can still "cause" the overspray to happen by choosing...

i did hear of this once being the fix for someone. they had their drier at such an angle that caused a breeze across the platen. no breeze on my side. no fan, no drier, nothing.

i've had the same issue for months. i print almost exclusively in 360x360 1 pass 2x so i'm surviving with it. one thing. i first wanted to blame old heads. but recently i put a brand new black head and no change. also doing data swaps have not isolated it to any one head. i had a...

there truly is no such thing as a "solvent head". we should call them dx4's with solvent manifolds.

the head rank isn't that important. i'd go without the head rank and save the money. what is odd about it "not having" a mimaki head rank is that all heads coming out of the epson factories have ranks. they make a head, give it a universal rank. there then is some kind of decoder that...

yes. change the head manifold to a solvent manifold and you will have a "solvent dx4". the ranking ID is a code that fine tunes the voltage going the head. there's been a lot of discussion about if the head rank helps at all or allows the head to last longer. the evidence leans to the...

the manifold is different, the head is absolutely the same. i once got a waterbased epson 10000 head unit that had three perfectly stacked head rank stickers on each dx4. first one was for the epson 10000 second was for roland third was for mimaki

hey jane! great to have you here!

warm soapy water for waterbased inks. if you look at the msds for waterbased cleaning solution it just says water and surfactant. the best "soap" to used is bissell hard floor cleaner. it's the concentrate that you but in one of those floor scrubbers. you want soap, with no bubbles. that's...

yup. he's wanting to sell. but i really think with some help he may be able to get it to work right.

an epson 7880 i believe? maybe you should contact him. he's now about to scrap the printer plus his ink.

latest update from rubo. i got a call from him yesterday and his sepiax was giving him fits. it really needs the right dx5 head with the special metals to avoid clogging. i think it's time to put the sepiax dog to sleep. i wish it weren't true. but it's just not happening.

the neojet uses the gantry/slide of an encad 700. famous for carriage axis failures. at $4200, i'd add just a few more bucks to it and get something with a standard gantry. after looking at them i also noticed that there was some guy (usa) that had one and it was having homing issues. the...

every time my quasi father in law who does the equipment purchasing and is the foreman for mountain commercial graphics says they can't keep up with this or that account, i mention that a memjet would be perfect. he replies, too new to depend on. maybe by now there are a few large shops...

i spoke with a xante engineer way back. they wanted to spear head the tech to desktop first which required very high resolution. the picoliters are so small they evaporate on contact. i'd imagine there's a limit to high viscosity as well. how this would work with a solvent or uv or even a...

definitely leave flush in it. straight butyl carbitol if possible. if you want to be hyper safe, sink the base of it in some form of glycol or cleaning solution. something like a very small shallow bowl works well.

no. i'd start with just proving that any one damper is hooked up right. say, pull the two black dampers. block off one of them with a plug. pull a vacuum on the other. what happens? also, i remember back in the day, my pump tube would fall off my capping station on my fj50. i'd freak out...
