one of our clients just does soapy water mounts for their coroplast sheets all the time and she does full 4x8' panels. You might want to use rapid-tack or something though as it seems to dry faster and wait a while before it leaves your shop so it's fully dry. Or swap to air release vinyl and...

I'm in Hawaii so I don't think I'm a good source but we could help... You can try Terry Town in CA as well but I think their lead time is over a month right now. For sublimated towels they start out pure white so whether it's a corner print or printing the whole thing it's probably going to be...

Hi, I have one of these and we never really ended up using it and a lot of it was because we tried to sit it on the table next to our presses and our guys would always knock it when loading shirts and throw it off. I'd really suggest mounting it above the press somehow. Ether on the wall...

The Bordeaux ink is awesome. Been buying it from Solventinkjet for years and multiple printers. We actually prefer it to the SS21 Mimaki ink as it works just as well and the fumes are so so much milder. We'd buy it over the oem ink even if it was the same price. Just wanted to throw that...

I think the only issue you’re going to run into is that at least in my experience there matte lam adds a bit of a yellow tint to the print or at least ours does. We’re currently printing panels to go in the window cutouts of a few sprinters and we’re doing a black design on a dark grey...

Unfortunately with your home inkjet printing water based ink versus a mild solvent or latex like commercial printers the ink is never really going to bond to vinyl that we’ll. Like others said you could try los tack tape but it might not be something you can solve.

We picked up Onyx Thrive. We haven't really gotten the hang of it yet and for some reason we can't get our Mimaki to connect to it but I guess eventually we'll get it working. We have the Epson, a Mimaki JV150, a Mimaki 63" cutter and a Zund and ideally we'll eventually get them all working on...

Thanks for replying on my apparent mistake on it wasting material at the start of the print. I need to check on what we're doing wrong as the we're loosing about a foot on the leading edge which isn't a big deal for most prints but we do a lot of small heat transfer jobs as well and it hurts on...

Hi, I can send a pic tomorrow. Are you the one who messaged me on FB about the board? If you did I unfortunately can't reply as our FB account has been messed up for years. Please email me at hybriddesignhi@gmail.com or else I'll post the pic here tomorrow.

I might have a servo board cheap if you need one. Retired our xc540 last year and stripped all the boards before tossing it so I should have one

it's extremely minimal. so minimal that the tech who installed ours didn't even go over it... yeah, not the best installation job but like others said it's really simple compared to every other printer out there. Honestly the only two complaints we have so far are that: -it wastes more media...

you might just cut pieces off laminate off and do each piece individually versus having the laminate come off of the roll like how you have it now. It’s a lot easier start that way and not that much slower

Hi, as far as I know you can’t. On some machines if the 4 and 6 color machines share the same circuit boards you might be able to do it but I don’t think the XC does. I owned both the 4 color vp540 as sell as the XC and I don’t remember it being possible. I’d replace all your cap tops and...

1.) If you want to sublimate on acrylic you need to buy special acrylic coated on the back for sublimation. This is not that common and the printing is not opaque, it's kind of translucent. The example you sent it not sublimation. 2.) To do what you're showing in the example you need a...

$3.75 sqft sounds good and I’d just mark the install up slightly and be clear that you’re subcontracting it out. Your client will appreciate not having to find an installer and there won’t be any confusion on who is doing what. We charge $3.50-4 depending on the number of banners. For big...

Hi, I have a vj628 as well but I kind of doubt anyone is going to know much. Can the company you bought it from help? Are the tcip settings correct? I’m hoping to turn mine into a dtf system or sell it. It’s almost brand new but we just use our large format printer more…

I'd be willing to bet a new scan motor is all you need. That being said I've replaced the bearing block in our Rolands a few times. I have a used Scan motor that came out of a low mileage VP540 for $75 shipped if you want. I think I have two of them both out of VP540s. Personally I used to...

start plugged in but powered off then u press : Down , Right , Left , Up , Right , Down , Left and after this u press these all AT THE SAME TIME : Left + Down + right + power button It's what they posted before but you need to kind get a good rhythm and smoothly enter the first sequence...

Hi, it looks like you’ve got some experts on this but did the printers ever, at any point in the past, give you a good output? If you print test prints with solid cmyk colors do they look correct?

Wait, finecut works in AI 2221?!? We're using a hacked version of AI 15... we could never get it to work in anything remotely current and it's driven us nuts as the hacked ai is a pita to install so we only have it on one of our workstations and it's hard to generate print files from home etc...
