white has more solids than your black or yellow & is full of titanium, which beats the hell out of the printhead and EVERYONE has had problems with white ink

are the delaminated heads normally from any particular chemistry? i know the heads from a UV printer that have a primer channel setup tend to just about fall apart. is delamination "luck of the draw" or more chemistry induced?

I have often used a recovered head in a PROJECT machine (increasing the gap so i could run styrene sheets through a sc545-ex, for example) but, when the project was done we need new heads to turn out work or a QUALITY that clients are willing to pay for. You are not doing a client a favor...

It gives me chest pains (much like having to beg the shade tree commission for spproval to cut down YOUR TREE) but is getting more common in historic districts. WHO ASKED THEM.?

yes. but you need to "buffer" it for want of a better term butyl cellosolve and/or butyl carbitol keeps the acetone from evaporating too quickly and not giving you a chance to flush the solvent, pigments (solids in supension) and impurities from flushing out otherwise, you just cause the pigment...

AT&T had a lot more than a bad update they recently admitted that ALL 75,000,000 customers had information stolen not wanting to steal the thread, but, they constantly call about our enterprise clients & ask DON'T YOU THINK WE COULD DO A BETTER JOB RUNNING THEIR SECURITY THAN WHOEVER YOU ARE...

but NOT the first major f**kup with cloudstrike

not the fault of the device, the fault of the cleaning solution BACK IN THE EARLY DAYS of the printhead doctor, VLAD had a chemist on staff and i remember YEARS AGO, he had around 15 different "witch's brews" to try, one after the other. all ecosolvents are not created equal... as you know, i...

a friend who was one of the first to do solvent conversions bought a printhead doctor when they were first introduced, years ago he said he would have been a millionaire if it worked consistently EVERYTIME it does not it is a whole different game if you intend to stand behind your...

AT BEST, a repaired head will give you to ability to print at "high quality" or highest number of passes. this gives you a much lower print speed, and there is no consistency (forget pantone matching) certain colors are hard to print without banding with a brand new out of the box head, and...

my experience has been (and the REAL PRINTHEAD DOCTOR undoubtedly gives somewhat better results than my knockoff) this technology functions much better as preventative maintenance. meaning, if you flush a FUNCTIONING HEAD, with some missing nozzles, you have a good chance of improvement NO ONE...

We bought a chinese knockoff of thebprinthead doctor on ebay (ultrasonic cleaner, aquarium pump & some plumbing and valces) and added a small aquarium heater to the mix

captop not seating against the head? FIRST take a syringe and saturate the felt with cleaning fluid (ink with no pigment) run a cleaning cycle, REPEAT a time or two wouldn't hurt to pull ink through the line from captop to pump for waste tank

i am going to mix a gallon of that up and give it a try tomorrow typically i just use isopropyl (possibly following a wipe with windex if we see a mess)

what happens printing on paper (which doesn't stretch)?

whatever length makes the difference easy to see. i am wondering if (1) you stretch the vinyl a little (2) pinch rollers/grit rollers slip (3) electronic failiure (capacitor or resistor changing critical value effecting those adjustments that effect the feed (4) pinch rollers aren't dropping...

the reaason i said print 6, print 2 first thing in the morning, 2 at lunchtime & 2 at end of day after the printer has been through it's paces all day

did you print 6 identical copies of a job & then verify that they are EXACTLY the same size? if all the same size you can compensate if there is variation it could be as simple as slippage, (but certainly a different sort of problem)

you can take any piece of garbage file and convert it to a pdf. creating a pdf is certainly a GARBAGE IN, GARBAGE OUT process

use clear transfer tape? I AGREE WITH YOU it will look more like a premium, finished product & that is probably all that is important for your product/business i wouldn't do it that way (i don't have to!) but i agree you should
