I understand the point between true flatbed vs hybrid. But in my case, I will do lot of print on roll media. I know océ have the roll-to-roll option. Also, with an hybrid, I could print on 4x10 and 5X10 sheets.

So I'm doing my homework for my first flatbed printer. I have to say I've never operate or own one before (only roll-to-roll machine). I've tried to read everything on the subject to learn more. So for parts and service, the best manufacturer in my area would be OCE and HP. So it narrow down my...

Before changing for a latex printer, I was using versaworks with my roland printers. Now, I run Caldera and it's by far a superior rip than versawork.

All of them. I have a D160R and if I had to do it again, I would pay the extra $$$ to get the tangential knife, better downforce and take up (optional) of the S2 series. But I'm still very happy with my machine for over about 5 years now.

I have the same cutter. When we cut lot of small decal, we try to not make more than 4 feet (1 meter) at a time. Anyway, with the barcode reading, we can put 3-4 jobs back a back and it will read the jobs. This way, it ''reset'' the reading every 1 meter for better accuracy.

The only others I know are flatbed cutter table like zund.

I have a latex printer with a summa cutter. With the ''bow line reader'' from the cutter, I've NEVER add accuracy problems. If you don't want to buy another cutter, use vinyl with a 90# liner, your prints will be strait and won't need the compensation option.

Damn! I would never figure this one out! Thanks!

Since I don't own a CNC, what other solution do I have to make V-groove in ACM sheet? I've found a fletcher cutter, but I would like to be able to make groove in 3mm and 6mm sheet and also the full 8ft long. Thanks.

Damn! That is a good price!

Yep, just a strip on top and bottom. For larger size, we put 6in strips on the sides also.

We installed around 2000 sqft of this similar product last spring. It's very expensive and the product/visual is very hard to see at night because of the barrier that the window make.

So I will soon have a job that will require around 20k grommets to be installed. Right now, I only have a regular manual model. Is there a solution that would still be portable that I could carry around the shop? If not, what is the best bang for the buck? Thanks.

I've try to found something on google, but maybe I don't use the right keywords. I'm looking for a free viewer so customers could look at their .eps, .ai, .psd, etc. files. Something like Adobe Bridge maybe. From time to time, I've got customer sending me their files and since they can't open...

In my province, there is a shop specialized in 53 feet semi. They charge around 3500$ for the print (sides and back with 3M products) and 650$ for install. That is crazy.

Maybe we could make a group buy for Canada... Just an idea.

Indeed. The quote I have via sea was around 600$

Or you can order a Chinese one. Last time I've asked for a price, it was 7500$USD shipping included to Montreal for a 1500mmX3000mm work area (60inX118in). Here is a link

Does anyone heard about a HP latex flatbed printer yet? One of my supplier went to the HP offices in Barcelona (or I think it's a trade show) and one of the HP guys give this information. But no details at all. I'm just curious...

Do they offer wholesale pricing? Thanks for the link also.
