  1. Out of Black, whip a CMY=K batch??

    We do it with waste ink on our XL jets. We also mix 5% pure K ink to give it more black and make up for the head flush/solvent in the waste also. We also have profiles with black curves and densities up to compensate for mixture. I would not suggest trying a withcraft potion on a whim because...
  2. What is the best entry level grand format printer 10' or larger currently

    gf is a whole different beast than just a low end printer... you need space to finish them, machines and heads to finish them and low consumables to profit.. if you go low end chances are your entire infrastructure is low end and you will fail right out of the box... seen many god...

  6. Jeti parts from Agfa Guess how much..

    I quite honestly do not have time to find out nor wait for a shop to make these. Easier to have shipped next day pop em in and get up and running. Downtime only about 14 hours... Some times you pay through the nose for things being a convenience.

  11. 40' x 112' mesh

    The school across the street. We have rented a space to finish these in but seems when these turn into rush jobs that space has vehicles in it getting wrapped. The gym is a saving grace...

  14. Here we go again.. The true test for the LX850 year 2 .

    sorry bro now way trying to think I had issue with your 2 cents. would agree machines on paper do not owe a dime.. it is the expectation plus or minus.. that has been established by mfg.. if your or I made false or empty promises or expectations to our clients they would hold us...
  15. Here we go again.. The true test for the LX850 year 2 .

    please do not try and analyze any roi, throughput, machine usage or overall production comparison. to our production model here the overall nuts sand bolts are not fair game .. this is an extreme project with extreme expectations and 7 years running so we will always react to clients...
  16. Here we go again.. The true test for the LX850 year 2 .

    3K s/f a month is only 180,000 s/f per 5 years My figure is about 11,600 per month for 60 months = 700,000 s/f max and the machine rolls downhill very quickly.
  17. Here we go again.. The true test for the LX850 year 2 .

    We have 2 Scitex XL 1500's and they have never ever let us down in the 5 years we have had them. No new HP's should carry the Scitex badge. They are far from the Israeli True Scitex engineered production presses. We have had more techs here for one Lx in 16 months of owning than our 9 other...
  18. Here we go again.. The true test for the LX850 year 2 .

    I have no issues with the LX as a medium volume super high quality. I just never thought I would need to have 3 of them to keep a single job on point. They have replaced our Lightjet for backlits. Which is a plus and when this project is complete they will run many other projects. 24/7/365 work...
