Thanks to everyone for the great advice. I sure got some very good advice on what to do as far as a lease or purchase. One problem with either leasing or just making a purchase is the minute the printers leaves the dealer headed for my shop is the hit you take on what it's now worth. A friend...

What benfits are there to a lease other then you are not using your own money? I find myself not sure if I want to lease a new Roland or just purchase it and I would like to hear from others who have found themselves in the same position. I have spoken to my Roland dealer and they have given...

I live near the lighting capital of the world which is Tampa. Fla. I have had the power company company come out and install a different type of meter that has special surge protection and it comes with something saying that if any equipment is damages it is covered up to around $10,000...

I have always used FrontPage for building web sites for the past 7 years but this time I found a something that is much faster and it had more tools for doing more things. It's called Pagebuzz.com and I found it after looking an other site which I thought looked cool. I tried it for a few...

This topic is interesting. With everything else to think about before making a purchase this is just one more important thing to think about. Thanks for all the great ideas on what to do to help deal with the problem. Jim Hill

It is a tuff choice for sure. I have heard from others that they feel the Mutoh Valujet is a better printer but!!!!!!!!! I have also heard that many are not happy with Mutoh Customer Service or should I say the lack of it. I also know that whatever printer I purchase the serivce is only has...

OK I give up!!!!! Between the Roland and the Mutoh which ones has the better printhead design and why? Being new to this even if I looked at the print heads I still might not know why one is better then the other so I will ask the question. Having looked at both printers and talked with...

Thanks for the great tips and advice. Just wanted to thank you all for your tips and advice. Both printers seem to be very good. I guess it may come down to which one has the better price since both are serviced by my local dealer. Jimbo

I need some postive advice. Should I purchase a Mutoh printer or a Roland Versacamm? Both printers appear to be great and I am just not sure which one to buy. Please let me hear the postives and negatives of each. I understand about needing a plotters for the Mutoh but I really need to...

Thanks Fred and everyone else for help. I need more answers then I have right now from the owner about software and a few other things so I will let you know once I get to see the priner in action and talk more with the owner. The deal sounds almost to good to be true so time will tell if it...

I have never used a Gerber Edge 2 printer so I have a few questions. I have a chance to purchase this printer for under $2,000 dollars and it prints fine with no problems but it does not come with a plotter. This printer was just serviced and appears to work fine but my question is what else...

How different is the printing quality between and SP-300 two head model and the four head printer. I understand the speed difference but how about just the print quality between these two printers. Is the four head model that much better for print quality...

Just wondering. Is this the same printer that has been for sale for the past few months? I think it had been in storage since last January and was for sale for $5,700 I called the guy but since there was no way to do a test print I passed on it...

Water Transfer decals I have been making water transfer style decals for about 8 years now and the best way to make them is with an ALPs MD-5000 printer. The paper you need comes from Tango Papa and believe me after trying many different types of paper these are the only people I buy from...

Alex Galvez I have never met Alex Galvez but I sure do thank him for all the great tutorials he has posted either on his new site or on Utube.com For anyone new to Corel who wants to learn how to use it I would tell to watch his tutorials because he is a great teacher and really knows what...

He uses a Mamaki You question was: The reason your vendor is 'heads and shoulders' above your other vendors is probably based upon machine choice, knowledge and capability. Why don't you ask him what he has and buy one like his. First let me say the person doing my printing has become a good...

Bigdawg I do grafhic reproductions for restoration shops around the world. The answer to your question of do I think I paid to much to have the stickers printed is no. The person I have doing the work is one of the best I have found in eight years and I have used a number of different...

One more question. When purchasing the Roland Versacamm SP330 it is my understanding that this is a two head machine but that the SPV300 is a four head machine. I am going to go to a local Roland dealer but would like your opinion if it is worth the extra money. First I should let you know...

I have checked things such as Craigslist and different sign forums and I look at EBay but don't think I would buy off that site. I have also contacted Roland about a referbushed unit. I am looking for the 30" Versacamm model I am not in the sign business and really do not need...

I have a question about dealers. I understand that I can either purchase or lease a Roland printer where ever I want but you said the a dealer cannot sell out of their area. I am located in Florida so would Beacon Grafhics located in N.J. be able to sell to me? I just want to make sure I...
