A few rubber bands, and ill have it set up.

... and a couple of bodies in the trunk? -- not a Ray Lewis fan.

Awesome, thank you!

I know i've seen it, but what the font doesnt know it.

I looked at the Seal and a royal sovereign. I ended up with the RS, but it was a close call.. the take up roll on the rs ended up being the clincher for me. After using a daige, you are going to be in heaven, congratulations. You should be able to laminate entire rolls with ease.

We use Pro Vehicle Outlines, from digitaldesignware.com really good templates.

The newer solo does have the two red rollers. I still contend that having two screws to turn to set pressure has got to be the worst design possible, wouldn't have been too hard to figure out how to make a solid bar with one pressure knob... I guess at least the rollers are round.

set that laminator on fire and roll it down a hill. Buy a seal 54el, a RS 1401c, or any of the others in the 5-6K range and forget you ever saw that thing. By the time you get it figured out you have wasted that much in materials, have almost missed deadlines and stayed all night to reprint...

Bet it's a daige since they've talked about pressure being tuned in.... congratulations, if you have left those rollers sitting pressed on each other, you've got flat spots now. Always release pressure on laminate rollers after using the machine.

You were right on the money. Put in the pump yesterday morning before I left, and it didn't do anything, after filling the dampers and one cleaning cycle, all nozzles were printing perfectly after replacing the cap. I have looked all over the old cap, and see nothing wrong - it was just worn...

I wouldnt use briteline lam for anything but a straight surface. If you bought the version without the uv shield, it even states in their catalog that it's for indoor use only. I did have some briteline fail on me and they helped make good on that roll though, maybe it depends on who you talk...

It was the cap :) printer is running great. I replaced 4 dampers, and the cap. It took one cleaning and it was printing 100%. Yay. Was too tired after driving 8 hours to remember to take pictures (turns out Mimaki's headquarters are on the other side of Atlanta so it was a haul). I cant...

Ok, so I am going to Mimaki and picking up a cap this morning. Turns out they are about 2 hours from me. I'd rather be safe than sorry, and this job has to go out tomorrow. I did a little test, opened the valve behind the ink cartridge and opened the damper to see if ink flowed through the...

Wow, I wish I had ordered the capping station at the same time :( Fingers crossed that the pump works, we have an install tomorrow and Thursday, and a little less than half printed before it went out. Thank you for all of the information, you guys rock.

I figured I would make a new thread, rather than hijack another one. Yesterday, Magenta dropped a little on us, I did a head soak, and it came back. Today, yellow just disappeared mid print. It didn't slowly fade out, it just shut off mid print. So I tried the head soak again. Nothing...

This just happened to me, yellow too. Dampers are FULL, yesterday I had magenta drop out. I did a head soak, and magenta came back.. Now I am in the middle of a big banner job, and no yellow. One second it was print yellow, the next. Poof, its gone. You can see its like a switch went off on...

LOL! I was kind of thinking the same thing. That, and thank goodness I have a son...

I have used K2 banner. It's not bad, not as good as their Key, i find my print head picks up some fuzz off of the edges, which in long runs can result in droplets. For short runs, its better than other budget banner I have used.

The designer is worth keeping if you charge for their services. If you are giving it away, he is costing you money designing three banners in a day. Vehicle wraps, bigger stuff is another story. Get something like signvox, it will tell you where your bottleneck is when you look on the job...

Thank you for this post! Got a $50 target card and some starbucks.
