  4. USTech MVT-600 issue

    Alright kids..... here is what happened, I went back in and put some slack on the chains to allow more pressure. I ran the laminate (BriteLine UV shield Intermediate) through and...same thing!

    This was laminated 5 days ago. It is not going away. Is it the Brite-line laminate from Grimco or is it a pressure issue? BTW...Thanks for the help....This can be so frustrating.
  7. USTech MVT-600 issue

    This is the adjustment that was made after speaking with Dave.... When it showed up the chain was off the sprocket on the right side and just hanging on the left. He told us how it was suppose to go over the phone. We took a sprocket off on the left side and got everything the way it was suppose...

    Not used, New-Epson S30675 Comes in this Thursday! Grimco threw in a boatload of banner and intermediate vinyl material! Plus, I ordered some sample materials from Ultraflex. I just have to pay shipping.

    Alright..... Finished getting my taxes ready and I was way off on my original post! I spent $19,420 (not the $7,000 as first mentioned) on banner and vinyl printing and $3,220 on poster printing. Not that anyone really needs to know that, but since I started the post with an incorrect...
  16. Buying new Printer..WHICH ONE?!!

    Grimco sent me a sample from a hp 360 latex printer. This is a sample of a poster that a customer has sent me in the past. Looks pretty good.
  17. Buying new Printer..WHICH ONE?!!

    WOW....ok.... Lots of sarcasm there! Of course you have to pay for ink and material and such.(Rent, electrical, internet...) I should not have used the word "profit". You have to be careful what you say in here! 5sq ft x18ft (6x3 banner) = $90 customer price I payed $36.52 for the outsourcing...

  19. Buying new Printer..WHICH ONE?!!

    I'm paying $1.50 a sqft plus $10-$25 in shipping for every order. please help me understand.. I will have less quality and pay more in shipping with my own printer? What am I shipping? Are you saying the quality of the banners are probably not any better than the printers I'm outsourcing...
  20. Buying new Printer..WHICH ONE?!!

    I payed Signs365 and B2Signs a little over $7,000 in printing and shipping of the work I needed and an additional $2,500 in poster printing. So, How much in outsourcing do I need to get to in order to start printing myself? I thought that having my own printer would also open the option for...
