  2. EPSON 9880 chips not being recognized...printer will not turn on

    This question is for my screen printer who has an Epson for printing his artwork to shoot screens. I know iin the past he had tried the refillable cartridges as he only needed to run black but had some trouble and went back to 4 col process using OEM cartridges. Today the printer will not...

  4. Near disaster averted

    Started a print job and was sitting at my comp about 6 feet away. I bought these little tools that can only be described as dentist tools, although they are not of the same quality at $7 . In any case I use them to remove caked up ink or any other number of things around the printer and...
  5. Shrinkage after Contour Cutting - Advice needed

    I did about 25 parking signs last week and I cut them all at 12" x 18" printed and laminated. Not one of them fit correctly. My fault, I should have made the cut along the black borders instead of trying to cover the entire panel... Non printed calendered seems to shrink at a much slower...
  6. Flexi and PhotoPrint RIP

    I have used photoprint for 7 years with my Mimaki and it is simply print or print and cut, but not cut only, which is fine as I run Signlab for everything else. If I ever upgrade printers the fear is that switching from photoprint makes all those thousands of files pretty much useless I...

  9. Inktec Inc?

    I use Jet Best solvent cleaner and at $40 a litre it's the best deal around. Been using it now for well over 8 months and have seen nothing wrong with prints or capping station. Smells identical to Mimaki cleaner

  13. not an issue but an observation about a supplier

    I have saved empty cores for years and with one certain supplier they like when I give them back to them to recycle and use again. It saves them a small pitance and I don't have to throw them into a garbage container and out to a landfill. I can only guess that over the years I have probably...

  17. Application tape rant lol

    so 1) yes to pre mask that has been damaged on the ends, or cut too fast with the baloney slicer..... pack it up and send it back to the supplier. Let them unload it on some walk in end user. 2) 3m masking tape can be a real pain too. Sometimes the cellophane wrap around it gets stuck...

  19. Weeding after laminating issue

    I have found with my Summa cutter that weeding from different angles can improve the process. I find that laminated square or round cut decals at times depending on the laminate can be a real pain (especially the small stuff), so once I see the issue I stop and rotate the sheet and try going...
