It happened once here I just call the distributor for replacement of "bad cartridge". That teaches Mutoh it will cost them $$$ for some dumb chips.

In my experience, the foil is a lot thinner than vinyl, only the foil will tear apart, and sticking to vinyl, never the other way around. Could it be the vinyl hold-down problem?

Sign Biz is different than franchise in that they don't charge franchise fee on you sales other than the initial set-up. Sort like a "Association". It is(was) headed by Teresa Young, the president of ISA. The model dated back to 1985 by Banacom Instant Signs, which marketed a system with a PC...

That design co. has amateur designer on staff. Seasoned designer will always make the outline "scale with image".

It has come full cycle here. China was happily isolating itself for thousands of years. Then came the Western power forcefully opened their market, I mean using Military Force. Most notably the "Opium War", in which British merchant shipping opium into China for the purpose of corrupting...

Fred, I wouldn't be so sure about that. There is 14" distance between the two sprockets, one of them has a 1/4" of free play to ease the loading of material. When the material is thick and rigid, the hold-down bar is not strong enough to hold the material flat against the roller platten, the...

This problem is caused by: 1. the knife tip clearance 2. the vinyl lifted up from the platen while advancing. Tangential knife will not necessary work if the vinyl still puckle-up and knife clearance is not sufficient. Like my Gerber HS15 plotter, will have the same problem when cutting lexan...

What kind of investment & return are you looking for? Salary + profit for your investment. I would look into the hotel franchise as they provide documented financial prospectus if they are established franchise. A while back there was a Signarama franchise for sale: -Asking price: $500K...

On the contrary, Edge is not good at all for small intricate decals, especially process colors as it has "dot" size limit for all thermal printers. Send a file to the dealer for a test print first. I don't have luck with both Edge or Mamaki printing on static vinyl. I prefer with low tack...

This issue comes up every month because many Valuejet owners are interested. If you are not, great. May be you have not experienced the convenience of a bulk ink system. Spoiled by my Mimaki's third party bulk ink system, no warranty issues. We love to print overnight with our Mimaki. How...

Wow, this is what we business owners' worst nightmare! It is like your best salesperson, went out sells $5,000 channel letters for $4000, collected in full, and turn-in $2500 as deposit, pockets $1500. Then the customer gets a bill for $2500 balance. Art Unica is a reputable co & the owner...

We bought a laminator and a printer from them. All delivered as promised. Great guys.

Kevin, I only see Mutoh Falcon or Rockhopper on their website, so I called them. They say they don't have solution for the Valuejet chip reader yet. Are you using Valuejet?

Has any one tried jetbestusa.com? Here is the email I received for my inquiry: "We do have Solution for the Mutoh ValueJet 1204, we have 2 different options for you, we have 440ml disposable cartridges, and we also have refillable cartridges. For the refillable cartridges you must buy the...

When in doubt, charge. that way your are covered, customer pays them anyway.

That is a pretty sick concept. It does not cost them more money or need to have more codes in the program to have unlimited invoices. Would you buy a printer that limit prints 100ft/day, has to folk out more money to print more? I've been using this software for 10 years now since they first...

I am pretty sure it is an water based pigment ink printer. Excellent resolution, indoor or short term outdoor application.

Wet the ap tape with alcohol/water solution generally help to loosen the ap tape.

Great info. Thanks Ken for posting of this question and Shovel for the answer. Although we have X3, we stay with version 9 because when we open a file, in ver. 9, just type a few characters of the file name, it will scroll to the target, where in X3, it does not. May be there is a trick for...

This seems like a laser engraving job.
