    cheaper than styrene? i will get some acm in and give it a try
  2. VS-540 Not Printing White Again

    white ink has the most solids ,and they tend to settle have you been removing and agitating your white inks daily? mutoh insists that we do. the display prompts us daily i am looking into adding circulating pumps to the white ink (i will have an opinion on this in a month or two) i have other...
  3. Question Pricing board number sets

    true, i can do that myself (or at least i will be able to, once the new printhead arrives tomorrow) just wondering if there was a cheaper, easier, way
  4. Question Pricing board number sets

    we are developing a series of menu/pricing boards for a few of our cllients what they are using now has styrene inserts with approx 1-1/2' numbers are there wholesale sources for quantities of numbers of this type (to be inserted in H channel)...
  5. Suggestions Royal Sovereign 54 uneven feed/wrinkles

    you should probably consider that fish scale though. i love my royal sovereign, but, they can be one cranky b**ch of a device at times.
  6. Where can I find aluminum sign blanks

    i can't blame him for thinking that some of grimco's pricing is criminal... (ok i am VERY CHEAP) i am glad we have grimco, but i don't blame him for thinking he should be able to do better. in order to do quantity pricing & pass on "economy of scale" to your customer, you need to see it...
  7. Where can I find aluminum sign blanks

    i was just going to type ALMOST exactly what gino did. i don't think you will get a better answer. i was going to suggest a couple places to purchase a shear, but, i guess not i certainly agree with you that no one would consider grimco a reasonable price, though...
  8. 0.0" width sp300v

    if it's available, it is easier to change with the two mylar strips the strips don't seem to be available anywhere for my sc545-ex, so i cheated with a few small pieces of masking tape, to join the 2 mylars together. (you will see what i mean when you are reassembling)
  9. Need Help Network chip Roland VP540

    this is becoming a common problem. i will locate a service manual. i am just curious if any of the unused "headers" on the board are an unused usb interface (no promises). if there is a usb interface, that was unused, we might be able to "workaround" with a usb printserver, (or even a parallel...
  10. Summa Firmware Uprgrade Continual Fail

    i think this makes a lot of sense, i was thinking the exact same thing. we have had usb backwards compatability issues with several manufacturers it is POSSIBLE that the failed upgrade has corrupted the target area that the firmware writes to... we would try obtaining & replacing the eprom the...
  11. LE Vs 2, swapping parts?

    i would have guessed the fx is different. (higher resolution?) the other 3 the same, i thought
  12. Question HOW DO I CHANGE MY INKS?

    no, in fact, i mark the cards with a sharpie as i open the packages. i mark color and exp. date i can always spot a potential ambush, and hopefully avoid it i am considering resetting the whole machine to "out of box". flushing with isopropyl, but, ideally, this will not be necessary. at this...
  13. Question Double DX5 Print head troubles.

    I DON'T THINK you have proven the capping station is not at fault/contributing to your problem. can the capping unit be changed, or at least have the felt (?) thoroughly flushed with a solvent (here i go with alcohol or acetone again!) too much resistance in the capping unit starves you for...
  14. Someone ran outta nuts

    that appears to be bell wire, though. you would have trouble making the dead frog from science class jump, with that
  15. Question HOW DO I CHANGE MY INKS?

    we recently acquired a mutoh valuejet 1617h that has been sitting for probably 1-1/2 years we will change ink lines, where necessary, orings cap top and of course prink head it was telling me on the display M ink end & W ink end, we changed the cartridges, all well and good i changed the cyan...
  16. Someone ran outta nuts

    wait, are you saying that's not right?
  17. Please help Cyan not printing or printing black on SP-300v

    or POSSIBLY the pump needs to be flushed (isopropyl into the waste container.) EITHER WAY the captop has to go, i would think drain lines need a good flush, as well, before you change pump, but cornholio has you on the path to success
  18. Reviving a UJF-6042 (MK1), No Ink From Heads

    i normally include a warning, that you follow my advice about using acetone in your flush AT YOUR OWN RISK (we have had very good results) the amount you use is critical. too little will not be effective, but, the first time i did this, i used a bit too much acetone & solvent welded the impeller...

  20. Reviving a UJF-6042 (MK1), No Ink From Heads

    i have never done a machine with ricoh heads, but, same principles should apply did you consider that your flush/reverse flush may have ruptured a membrane or some internal component in the heads? (unlikely, all 8 failing EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, though) damaged ribbon cable, blowing a fuse for...
