So technically you're using a Barbieri LFP. Depends where it's going. I know you would stick it on mostly glass. But it differs, like heavily tinted or does a lot of light shine though it. Easiest way is to read it straight off the printer, leave the back on. (you must read it with the...

Everyone thinks i just load the printer and press print.

This is 1 media i haven't had much experience with profiling. I have half a roll left sitting around, but i've just used another profile for a similar material, but not perforated and worked fine. When creating a profile, all measuring should be done the way it's intended to be viewed. What...

Please be more detailed with your error. Printer? What's your yellow heads doing?

I'll kick it off. I absolutely hate it when people put crop marks and colour bars on their files. Mostly happens for signs. If i need crop marks, i'll do them myself... properly. If i need a bleed, I'll either ask for one or do it myself. depending on the file. We only do flat bed...

Here's a thread that you can post your thoughts of that's currently Pi$$ing you off. Got something to vent about in the print industry? Something that annoys you in this industry? Something that happened today at work that annoyed you? Yep, Vent it here. Just keep it on topic.

I use the Barbieri spectrophotometers. I have the Spectro Pad and the LFPrt. Reason why i didn't mention it is they're more catered for professionals (if that's the right word to use) or a specific print shop. I say this because when you buy a barbieri product. All you get is the spectro, and...

You might be barking up the wrong tree here. I only have exp with Oce Arizona flat beds. And they don't allow you to use any other inks with their printers. all the bags have RF chips so the printer can read them. It wont even allow you to for example put a cyan ink bag in a magenta port...

+1 with correct color. It's your printer profile. I'm assuming you're using a "Canned profile" something that your printer or rip supplied profile. they can be good and they can be bad. Do you have a Spectrophotometer? I'm going to assume you don't. (pardon if you do have one) I believe...

firewire is easy to test. but it can be a pain to change. I've got a tech contract on call, so if anything goes wrong i call and they come and do the fixing. But if you have to change it, a few things will need to come apart, but initially you tape the new to the old and pull it through. You...

You shouldn't be leaving it off for a long period of time with out doing a proper shutdown procedure. You need to contact oce for that. But you should always leave the machine on, so the vacuum keeps the ink in the heads ect. I most definitely not change the heads around. Once you do that...

I'm not familiar with those printers. I use UV flat beds. Daily maintenance is purging the heads and cleaning every one to make sure every nozzle is firing correctly. So naturally i would assume there a way to purge the heads. Saves you from wasting media. Doesn't seem like it though.

Yep open the carriage up. Inside will be all the boards for each ink head. on each board there should be LED lights. just shows if they're getting power. And just check inside for anything that seems odd. I remember a tech telling me someone had a similar issue with a head not firing like you...

I dont know how long the adhesion will last on concrete. But what about using aluminium composite sheets, because you cannot print directly to them, you can still stick your vinyl onto it. you'll get better adhesion life from it.

No way to manually flush the ink out of the head?

Changing media, to what? Have you tried coated or uncoated paper? That looks like what paint does when there's silicone around.

So you've done the basics. When the print head pures, it cuts the vacuum to the print head. So there's a chance it could not be responding to date. Open up the case and just see if everything is working, if all the boards are on (there's little LED's on each board) How did you store it over...

I was in the same boat once. I didn't choose a printer purely on what i can and cannot do. Have to look at few things first. - How reputable are the dealers/company in your location - If something goes wrong, what's the response time ect. - What do you get for the money you pay - and...

Oce Arizona with the RMO option. There's a few models to choose from. 460 CMYKWW configuration. 480 CCYMMKWW config. Or you can go the 660gt. which is the same as the 460 just twice the amount of print heads staggered (prints quicker) or the 680 which is the same as the 480 but again double the...
