  1. Question Roland Color Management

    +1 You need to have an ICC profile embedded into your image so your RIP knows which profile it's translating from so it can tell the printer how to print.
  2. I Hate This Customer

    Woah everyone needs to settle down. Everyone will get those customers who want the ridiculous. Usually the ones who don't understand how the industry works, they think they can bargain because they don't want to spend much. Complain that the quality is poor when it's their poor quality image...
  3. New Océ Colorado 1640

    I only ever used it when we got the arizona, after the bag finished, i swapped it to white to have double white. From what i remember, it's a raised finished. It's quite thick. I only ever did it on rigid media. It does have some flex but it can crack. From what i gather it's used more for POS...
  4. New Océ Colorado 1640

    The arizona can print white colour white on the roll (3 layers) but won't do the varnish (clear) on the roll. It does it in stages. It'll flood the media with varnish first pass, then it'll go back and dry it.
  5. New Océ Colorado 1640

    That's a good question. Latest Inkjet Technology: UV Gel That's the best info i could find. seems like a good technology. And the fact it's coming from Canon/Oce, The colour gamut would be very good.
  6. Rgb Vinyl Printers

    Well Yes and No. There area "RGB" printers. which are CMYK printers that already have a profile internally. So if you where to calibrate and create an ICC profile for one, It'll be done using RGB charts. So Yes - There are printers that can use the RGB colour space directly. No - There's no...
  7. New Océ Colorado 1640

    I saw the video, Looks great. I'd own one if needed it. Pretty strange how there's 2 separate gantries for the lamps and print heads. I like how the whole thing is enclosed also, less dust and less chance of killing heads.
  8. Rgb Vinyl Printers

    Does anyone actually have an idea what they're talking about? You can design or photograph in any colorspace you desire... For example, You design a poster in sRGB (standard in photoshop). Once it's saved properly with the profile embedded. You'll open it with the RIP (Raster Image Processor)...
  9. Zund Or Oce Procut

    Yes the procut is a rebranded zund, even oce will tell you that. So both if you're looking at the same machine just different name would be the same. The difference will the people who stand by the product. The guys at canon are brilliant and i would happily buy another product from them...
  10. General Rant Concerning "schooled" Designers

    I Strongly disagree. One may not know how to draw cartoon characters. You can teach someone the basics how to draw cartoon characters. That someone can learn from that, and draw cartoon characters to their liking. Some people have good imagination. But not everyone knows how to put that to...

  13. Mimaki UJF 3042 - UV Flatbed Printer - Information - Questions & Support

    I don't know how you can print with nozzles firing on an angle like that. All my nozzles on my Arizona fire except 1 magenta and another magenta is firing on an angle. I dont know if it'll work on your printer, but (instructed by Oce) to swab with isopropyl, purge then use the suction to clean...

  18. Need Help Any Experience with Chinese flatbed products?

    Im pretty sure onyx you can reconfigure ink channels. but onyx isn't cheap so it's not worth it for what you have. I'm not sure what else you can do. If it works with your current RIP. then just keep using it. make some money and hopefully you can upgrade to something bigger and better.
  19. Need Help Any Experience with Chinese flatbed products?

    I wouldn't know where to start. Not sure why it would print with different channels with photoshop vs a rip if its using the same driver. Do a search for free or open source rips and start trying them.
  20. Need Help Any Experience with Chinese flatbed products?

    Don't know how much money you're into this printer. Don't think you can get a proper branded flatbed like yours. Either try reconfigure it digitally or open it up and do it manually. If you really want to create a business out of it. It would be worth getting a proper flatbed. I know you can...
