Use high quality sharp bits like www.hartlauer-bits.com or www.onsrud.com. A spiral up is to remove the chips. I use Gerber vinyl mask. It takes the heat and is easily removable. Your feed rate may be a bit fast also.

+3 head soak

I like the printer separate from the cutter. Better work flow with more production. It makes even more sense if one part of the print/cut machine needs repair.

Soak the heads with a piece of lint free material on the cap top and saturate it with cleaning solution. Park the heads and let it soak for a bit then do a normal cleaning then a nozzle check. I have soaked mine for up to an hour or more at times. This softens any ink that has set up on the...

I would take a look at Ciberprint RIP. It has quality print with accurate colors and contour cut abilities that are very easy to control. This is a very versatile RIP that is very powerful. There are a couple merchant members here that sell it. I use it with my Mutoh and could not be more...

Welcome to the group.

I would upgrade to Signlab. Call your dealers and get prices from each. They will be different.

Your cmy part of your cap station may be bad (is pad swelled up?) and siphoned the ink. Is there ink in and around your pump or did it all siphoned into the waste bottle?

I think it is the best cutter for the money. I have a CE3000Mk2 and the contour cuts of printed film is as good as it gets. I cut sandblast mask and have not had a problem. I even cut a ridged stencil material with no problem. If I were cutting a lot of stencil material I would consider a FC...

Ditto! Victor is very helpful if you need help.

I was told that is the only gear not solvent resistant. You will have to get a new pump or the complete maintenance station. They are parts that wear out...

Welcome.....I went to ISU and lived in Bloomington for 13 years. It's a nice area.

Ditto....check Ordway.

Welcome to the both of you.

I believe the PNC-5000 cartridge was a CMY or a CMYK only. It had one ribbon cartridge. The PC-60 had more. I had a PNC-600 and it could not use the 60 cartridge. I would google for PNC-5000 cartridges and buy them up if you are going to print with your 5000. CMY will be cheaper and look almost...

All the above is right on. I would soak the heads and then do a regular cleaning....if it showed a good nozzle check you would be good. If not another cleaning and/or soak a little longer.

CE5000-60, Ordway has great deals on them. A very good cutter for the money. It tracks as good as you line up the material. It has to be loaded square to the pinch rollers. The cut quality is as good as any.

I have a Falcon Jr and I have replaced parts but that is part of tools and equipment. They wear out like tires on a truck. I get excellent quality and the speed may be slow for some shops but not a problem here. I am not sold on the lc, lm on the 48" falcon but I don't have a problem with...
