Going to pull the trigger on summa T-160. Just not sure if we need the OPOS CAM? Have read some where that Opos X has trouble reading cropmarks on some reflective and specialty vinyls. Sales rep says he's heard that too, but has never had a customer (t160 owner) have an issue with it. He...

So there are substrates available already this color? Dibond or ACM? I've been searching for it without luck. Does anybody have a link?

Awesome, thanks for the info. We are making a test run to start. Think I'll do one with cut vinyl and one printed. Is it safe to say that these need to have a matte finish? Edit: didn't see the additional responses after what I quoted here. Just ordered a gray card, never had a need for one...

Cool, thanks I'll check it out. How did you come up with that?

We don't have one. I guess I can print the color and try to match it to some gray vinyl swatches. Hopping there is a reference on this somewhere to save some time. We are going to be making gray colored boards that are to be used as backgrounds for facial recognition software. They gave me...

Trying to match a gray cut vinyl to a cmyk value. 55,46,46,11. Is there anyway to find out if there is a cut vinyl that is a very close match to this?

No way, tell HP if they make one I will buy, lol. But seriously I think that would be a huge success if it's possible. Seems it would as everybody says how the latex can print on pretty much everything and no cure time needed. Seems all they need to do is have adjustable height carriage and...

When are they gonna roll out a 570 like latex hybrid flatbed, 64", ability to print on 1" thick substrate, for around $35k? I'd stop looking at the epsons if they rolled that out.

So did some more digging around about the discounts offered now. Summa also has a pretty nice one going right now, $1,500 I believe. From what I can find out the discount from Epson has been around and most likely will be in a few months. It may be in a different form, perhaps less $ but also...

Really appreciate all of the feedback from everybody. While the no cure time for latex is very enticing, I think we will go in the direction of an epson s80600. So the next step will be to determine which rip software to go with. Leaning towards Onyx right now but still need to research our...

We notice everything prints much better on matte. Would that file have printed as nicely on gloss material?

I now what you mean, stress out about outputting beautiful graphics and then the customer hardly looks at it.

Is that printed on matte vinyl?

So many mixed reviews on latex printers. Mostly you see that the print quality is not on par with even old solvent printers like ours. Then you see some high volume shops that chime in and say, nah latex prints great... as long as it's profiled and calibrated correctly. With our roland, we...

Is it me or does nobody own an ej 640? Been searching threads for reviews and can't hardly find any. As far as latex, we aren't really considering them. Same day lamination isn't a huge deal for us. Too many negatives with latex. 220, high heat, warping material, not ideal for short runs...

After doing some more research, it seems the epsons have experienced short ink life mainly due to the orange and red ink. Some reviews suggest this has been addressed with the 80 series. Can anyone confirm if prints off an 80 series epson with O and R inks will last as long outdoors as roland...

Looking to add/replace a printer to our shop. Currently we have a Roland XJ 540 6 color (xc without cutter). It's over 8 years old, has been good to us for the most part, and still running pretty strong. But it has been getting more finicky as time goes on. We have some large fleet wrap jobs...

Can anybody identify this font? Thanks,

Been running into this issue more lately. Versaworks takes forever to open after a couple weeks of print files. And we hate to loose all of our RIP settings by clearing the que. Could you go into a little more detail on how you are saving as RVW files that can be reloaded into versaworks if...

Does anybody know what font this is? Thanks,
