Epson, without a doubt. Newer tech, best quality solvent on the market. Mimaki is slow and old.

Since when do the HP Latex machines not have banding issues?

My guess, Flexi 19? I have this happen too, and went back to using Flexi 12 for now, too many bugs.

Thanks will DM you now, I keep the same humidity and temp settings for the most part in my print room. It would happen even with 2 or 3 feet or more already printed, just bunched up, and I manually have to babysit it as it exits to keep it from bunching up since I don't have a take up reel.

I tried the LexJet Simple Adhesive SUV on my 315, and had nothing but problems. It kept bunching up as it exits the platen and onto the heater and would cause head strikes. I used their profile for it too. The print quality was good, not sure if I needed to change something in the profile...

Wonder why they didn't send everything the pony and did some of just the logo, that's odd. Not sure mine is UV printed, the ink doesn't feel raised.

Oracal sent me a printed sample of their new 3258 sticker/decal vinyl, stuff looks pretty good, but I'm more impressed with the print quality. Anyone have someone on the inside at Orcal that can find out what printer they used to print these samples on? Also, I can't tell if this is laminated...

Not sure where you live, but you can get a new Epson S class for that price or cheaper, brand new.

I have not looked at high res toner printers, how would that compare to the aqueous printers and aqueous media? Any model/brands you can point me to?

My wife runs a planner sticker business, small stickers that go in planners, notebooks, teacher journals, stuff like that, viewed from a very close pov, and after complaints of "omg your stickers are grainy" we moved to Canon printers. Today, I use Canon Pro 2000 and 4000 aqueous printers for...

Yea, those are...grainy for sure. I'd love to see those at 10 pass or higher! :)

I keep hearing how proper profiles will fix the grain issue, however I've had samples run by two national HP vendors, one HP fanboi vendor that is on this site, even a printer guru from HP Latex labs, and two members here that run HP's, and they all said the same thing - the lighter colors...

Yea, ink was next on my list. However, I'm at the point of not wanting to put another penny into this printer. I'd have an Epson S60600 tomorrow if I had the room for it, unfortunately I don't. So I am looking at the Mimaki JV150 or JV300 or something else. My main priority is quality output...

Yea, no puddles on the floor or inside the printer that I can see, yet.

Thank you for your suggestions! I'm not seeing any obvious ink leaks, at least visually. No idea how to check for vacuum issues. There are no errors on the LCD or in the all support page dump.

Hey All, Having a weird issue with my HP 310 Latex. I have a case open with HP, support is trying to help, but it is moving slow and at this point they don't have any answers nor making any real progress. What happened.. - Print quality issues, banding on blues/oranges/reds, ran a drop test...

Don't listen to all these naysayers! I think you should go out and spend $100K and buy 2 or 3 machines, you should also go rent 10K sq ft of industrial space and build it out ASAP. With all the business your ONE friend PROMISES to give to you, you'll soon own all label printing for all of...

Link isn't working.

I just got a marketing piece I'm the mail, Epson has $6k off their solvent printers for US customers.

The group is called "Flexi Software sign users" - everyone is complaining about Flexi 19, from colors sucking, contour cutting issues, profiles having to be redone, etc. I personally kept version 12 on the computer and use that for my cutting/printing, and use 19 for edits only. You'd think...
