  3. Is there a real difference

    Yeah, sorry for the confusion the "Mutoh ValueJet 1204" is still available - only as a SW PrismJet. I don't believe they sell a badged Mutoh ValueJet 1204 in the USA...the 1304 is/was it's replacement. *Correct me if I'm wrong here Randy.
  4. Is there a real difference

    Not necessarily... Not wanting to speak for Randy, but as I understand it "PrismJet" is the house name that SW has used for many of the smaller mutoh printers. The older ones (Falcons) and the newer ones (ValueJet) both used that name. AFAIK, they no longer sell the old ones - except maybe as...
  5. Should I gamble on a used VJ 1204?

    I've considered that, however since this also has the cutter $7k isn't for the printer by itself. I don't know what the 55" 1400 Ultima is worth, but a comparable Graphtec would be around $3k used. I also forgot to mention the printer also comes with the takeup reel. No doubt it's a gamble...
  6. Should I gamble on a used VJ 1204?

    Local bank has a repo VJ 1204 and matching Ultima 1400 cutter. They can't tell me anything about how it was taken out of service other than it was willingly surrendered. (Customer told the bank to come get it.) I think I can get the pair for around $7k, would it be worth it. Yes, I'm taking...

  11. TO SELL A MIMAKI..need opinons

    Gary, first I'd make sure you were absolutely certain that you need to sell the printer. Not sure what your financial position or payments are, but if you can justify keeping it even at break-even I would hold on to it. (Never know when a big job might come along and you don't want to be...

  14. Mutoh Resale?

    Depends on who you sell it to, and what they know or don't know. *I was baffled when I recntly saw a refurb. FJ-50 converted to solvent ink sell for nearly $8,000 on ebay. In the same breath, you can buy a brand new 1204 from SW for $8995 with warranty.
  15. Can you have 2 printers on colorchoice

    AFAIK Versaworks only works with the newer Pro2 machines. (Will not work with the older FJ's.)

  17. Exploring equipment to expand into in-house vinyl

    Ya' know, I'm not real sure where all the animosity towards print shops comes from by some members here?:help I think a print shop looking to expand into signs is a very natural progression - and is what we did. Most print shops already have a good grasp on the required software, understand...
  18. SignCut X2 issue

    I'm using SignCutX2 with CS3 from a Mac, so bear with me... Do you already have your text and strokes converted to outlines before you save back?
  19. Designers? Any competent ones out there?

    After spending 15 years working mainly in prepress of the offset printing world I can tell you some horrific stories about "graphic designers" and the problems I've had to fix. Sadly, even those who went to some design school are only trained in theoretical art and color theory - not production...
