  1. oversized (grand format) roll media storage?

    We have been doing enough larger prints lately (70"-126" wide) so we now have a few wide rolls of different media around the shop and no adequate way of storing them. Wall space is a bit of an issue, but we could make room on the wall if that's the best option. I've seen the BullRack XXL, but...
  2. Mimaki latex jv400

    I've been running latex for a long time starting with the l25500. When I sold my shop and came on here at this shop they had a mimaki latex. It. Was. Garbage. You could eventually get OK quality, but it wouldn't stay consistent and the speed suffered greatly! 40pass! We had one job to print a...
  3. Mimaki Latex Issue!!

    We had one (they bought it before I got here). Got rid of it as soon as I could! I was under the impression mimaki was pulling these from the field anyway...maybe I'm wrong.

  6. Opinion Buying A Flatbed Printer

    Just to throw my opinion out there. We have CET 126" hybrid and I freaking love it. We don't have the white ink, but I know it's an option. We just run cmyk, but you can run cmyk lc lm white and i believe a varnish/clear. We mostly run styrene faced foam boards, coro, acm, and roll materials...
  7. How to get rid of media buckling when printing 98" or wider?

    Still no issues here with the mosaic inks. We have the Ricoh heads. We print mon-fri, sometimes saturdays, roughly 4-5 hours a day. No clogging or anything. We run straight CMYK, no white, no light colors. No adhesion issues that I've seen. The only real issues we've had with the printer is the...

  12. Need Help Ready To Upgrade - Not Sure Direction... Solvent, Latex, Other...

    Lots of "this happened to me so it's true for everyone" opinions in here. I'll just give you my experience and opinion. Before switching to latex I ran a couple mimakis. Had an l25500 for about 7 years, just recently sold it for $2500. We currently have a 360 for our dedicated roll printer, and...
  13. Odd Color Shift On Hp 360

    Yeah, that's not a printer issue. That's a "design software / rip" issue.
  14. Looking For Poster Material Recommendation

    We use HP Premium Poster Paper. I like the flat finish. I feel like it gives us a better print than gloss does. And before we got rid of our L25500 it was the only paper we could find that would run well through it, the 360 and our UV printer. We get it from Grimco but I believe Lexjet sells it...
  15. Looking For A Trade Only Source For 17'x14' Banner

    They're not a wholesale only company, but EH Teasley is who we use if we can't get it on our printers. ehteasley.com Super nice people. (Funny story, we actually took in a new customer a few years ago and had some fabric pole banners to produce for them. We use EH Teasley for our sewing, so we...
  16. Alternative To Gemini?

    We use a small company that's local to us, but they work pretty fast and shipping shouldn't be too big of a deal. They're called Dimensional Letters and Logos. dllsigns.com
  17. Looking for a good argument for local municipality to allow Push Through Acrylic sign

    I'm asking out of 100% pure curiosity as we don't do signage like that, but could someone post a picture of a "push-through" sign? I just want to see what it looks like compared to the other types described in this thread. :thumb:
  18. HP L310 shutting down on long runs (Scan Axis Error)

    Not sure if I can help or not but do you have an error code for the scan axis error?
  19. What printer to buy for wall decor (canvas wraps) - HP 360/365 or Epson S80600

    I've been running canvases on the L25500 for about 6+ years now with very little issue, and now we run quite a bit of them on our 360. No coating, just print, stretch, bill 'em. If prints are scratching off, that's a profile/heat issue. If you're using canned profiles, that's what's going to happen.
  20. 65"+ wide Poster Paper

    I have a client asking for some fairly large posters (64"x80" etc) and I'm coming up blank on wider poster paper. I know Sihl has a couple that are 63" and one that is 64" but it's glossy and I need it to be an uncoated paper stock. Anyone know where I might look for wider poster paper?
