  1. Best Printer for Full Print Wraps

    Yes, FWIW, we ran 2 Mimakis here for 10+ years, then added an HP 360 6 months ago when we moved to our new building. I can't really say much good about it besides it is pretty fast and you can laminate immediately. As far as colors matching/varying... that's a whole different story. Tech...

  3. Best Printer for Full Print Wraps

    I have to respectfully disagree, we are a wrap shop here and the HP latex we purchased has been nothing but a nightmare for us. Not interested in debating the issue we have here, but if anyone is interested in buying one with low miles for around half price, let me know!

  5. Yeti Cup Wrap?

    Welcome from Hebron! What shop are you at now? It's unbelievable the growth in the industry in this area this year; we have MORE than doubled our sales every month this year from last year's sales... and we had a GREAT year last year.

  15. Summa DC5sx vs. Gerber Edge 2 or FX - Struggling with this one....

    Get on Craigslist for a used Edge, they're on there for WAY less even if you have to fly out and drive it home yourself in a rental car. Personally I like the Edge 2 better than the FX. The FX I had was always having dropped pixels during runs and always needed cleaning, the Edge 2 and Classic...

However, it was a pain to web up, and then you had to manually apply pressure (and run it slow) through the whole run to get it to track straight enough to not have to reprint any panels. And then, there was no...

    We have used the Mactac before with great results. We had to do multiple large windows in dot patterns that just would never work right in regular 3M frosted. (windows in picture are around 9'x4')
  18. Just buy a new laminator?

    I finally got this shop talked into getting a GFP to replace the aging Seal here. The Seal was only operable by one person and it was always a multi-person job to run a whole-roll through it accurately. With the GFP almost anyone can run it on their own w/o issues. We bought ours right before...
  19. Gerber Edge 1 - "Home" feature? (Been using an Edge 2

    There is no home button. We put a notch in the roll clamp (or was that a factory notch?) and put a dot there with a fine point sharpie whenever doing multi-color runs on our Edge Classic.
