  1. Is there a downside to printing high speed?

    Of course the quality, but recently we had a tech tell us that high speed mode wears the printer out...I think he may have been talking about the encoder strip.
  2. Anyone Know where to get walmart blue cor-x Blanks?

    We can find the light baby blue, and the navy blue but not the middle. Its like a wal mart blue

  5. Cheapest Digital Vinyl you can find...

    Right now we are ordering Orajet 3641 from Fellers for .18 sq ft. +free shipping on $100+ orders which is easy to get to. This stuff is actually pretty decent for the price. And not saying that it is all we use..(in case customers or competitors are looking) Anyone know of any cheaper...
  6. How do 3rd party inks ruin your printer?

    no one has ever had a printer or head fail using factory inks I guess. When a thousand dollar part fails we naturally look for something that caused it other than our poor maintenance habits Yeah there are some extremes I guess and fly by night companies but the big names are big names for a...
  7. cut vinyl vs. digital print

    Id say cut vinyl would always win for longevity, if only color match longevity
  8. How do 3rd party inks ruin your printer?

    But wouldn't any reputable dealer be able to match viscosity with the printer they are selling it for. I'm no scientist but I'd think it would be an easy thing to copy
  9. How do 3rd party inks ruin your printer?

    You hear about it all the time people swear by whichever side they are on. My thought is the filter on the dampers would prevent any crap from your cheap inks from going into the heads in the first place. You may have to replace them sooner but how does 3rd party ink ruin your heads...
  10. How long does eco-solv ink last outside unlaminated

    Because its a yard sign or banner and I can't charge for it in my market. Now something permanent is different
  11. How long does eco-solv ink last outside unlaminated

    I know its been asked a million times probably, but how long does it last on glossy vinyl and/or banner material. I haven't seen any come back... :thankyou:
  12. Seriously! Vehicle Wraps?

    Added my review Punjab Snack Shack is the best spot to get goat fritters this side of the Tennessee River. Great service.
  13. Large Sign Questions

    make as many panels sized that you can handle (lay down successfully) with a half inch overlap. when done trim the overlap with a sharp blade so there is only a hair if overlap, like 1/16'' or even none...I doubt the width of the blade will shine that brightly up on the side of a building
  14. falcon outdoor start and stop

    I used a falcon outdoor junior and while it said it printed 1440 it always stopped..gave up and went to 720
  15. Roland sp540 not printing yellow/magenta

    now don't quote me on this but...at my old shop we got got our mutoh going by sucking ink into the dampers using a large animal syringe, minus the needle(dirt cheap at farm supply store and fits dampers perfectly)...if you have ink in the dampers, you could probably try sucking from the drain...
  16. Running a plotter full speed?

    We have a graphtec 8000...since we got it working good I can cut even small letters at full speed with no trouble weeding whatsoever..not even the tiniest "I" dot gets past us. Why not run full speed all the time? Other than to let the production guys take a break... So is there a horrible...
  17. VersaArt RS 640 Reviews?

    We got ours 3 weeks ago and love it..It really cranks out the jobs and the quality is as good as you put into it
  18. Best bang for my bucks

    I'll tell you what you want to hear...at the last place I worked we bought some cheap crapper from ebay for 4-500 came with flexi-starter so you could cut with it...I think it was seiki tech... We bought it to take some load off the main graphtec plotter.. Yeah it was terrible, made an awful...

  20. Solvent Printing onto white newsprint?

    Cause we just got our new printer lol. Actually we are in a semi-rural area and there is a grocery distribution center that we do have an "in" with...good ol boy stuff any whatnot. It supplies this area with these types of things...but using legitimate poster paper is a good idea...the opacity...
