I should have qualified my remark; 300 dpi for photographic content. For vector-based content 300 dpi not necessary, although I still like 300 for printing 3d pre-viz in large format. Agreed on 720; 1440 seems to overwhelm the media in most cases. Printing photographic on paper might be an...

Gemini has been good for us.

Some of our rips are 2gb & up; all are done at 300 dpi. I also use the machines for 3d work/pre-viz rendering. When working on a print project, many times Pshop Illustrator & Flexi are open at the same time, using about 10GB each, with no swap + plenty of overhead for printing. For the level of...

Hi, you saw the price is for a 12 pack, right?

Roll your own is about $2,500 - $2,600 depending on available deals at the time of purchase. This is a mid-budget system in terms of actual specs but beats the pants off "high end" vendor systems in both spec + cost; however the CPU, GPU & RAM specs. are pretty good for the price point. - Add...

Roger that & thanks for your reply. I think something is going on with their adhesive specification. I also have had more than a few media buckling issues with IOM. ((also ditto experience on race car applications)) Nice guys though. Thanks again for replying! - Do you have a material you like...

- What is your budget? A few considerations: - RAM: 64 GB recommended - CPU: 3.5 t0 4.5 GHz (a few flavors are available but suggested considering Intel only) - GPU: Nvidia 1070 or 1080 - SSD: For OS Samsung 1TB (850 or 860 evo or Pro series, or M.2 architecture if you want to splurge) - 2nd...

I have a question about wall mural material selection: - I've been using IOM with mixed results in terms of hard surface adhesion. It has been OK in some circumstances, not OK in others. Certainly IOM's price is right - a bit of experimentation is not a problem with their media and this is...

Or for those doing wrap or livery pre-viz:

I just replaced my first high volume ink bag when the printer (1624) reported "M empty" OK, so I pull the bag and replace, even though there is a very appreciable quantity of ink remaining in the "empty" bag. As a reality check on the cost effectiveness of the high volume approach I opened the...

Hey Grey Squirrel, I should have paid more attention to your question since it looks like thee are a couple of points in it which I did not address: - As regards tension: I usually have the tension set on the roll clutch pretty high, to avoid any chance of wrinkling. ...never would have thought...

HI GS; I installed into the grooved areas first, then fanned out the larger areas, a section at at time which went fine. The base vinyl is staying down pretty good. I think you are right, it will require a good quality cast vinyl probably with premium grade laminate since the simple grooves are...

I have a couple of problems on a tradesman's van signage that I'd love to hear some feedback on. Here it is: Issue #1: Clear coat is de-laminating from base vinyl - Vinyl is a/r Oracal (calendared - should I try cast?) and the clear lam is Oracal 290g. This problem is occurring in deep...

Thanks buddy! I will do an application test on the paint to see how much "sticktion" it actually has.

Hi all, I have a requirement to apply printed/laminated vinyl in a restaurant over a painted wood section of wall. The wall and paint is in good shape. Can anyone recommend a medium/long term vinyl for this application? I have seen many medium tack "jarhead" type materials but I am looking for...

there is no documentation from mutoh, as usual. there is no documentation from mutoh, as usual. They are not well organized to say the least. Unusual for a Japanese company.

Hello S101; - I have a Mutoh 1624 which is printing blurry/washed out as shown in the photo: - Clean heads: done - test print: Done & OK Any ideas as to what is going on with the printer? - It seems to be happening after about 24 inches (linear) of media (any width) has past through the...
