  1. JV5 - Lost 1/2 of my Cyan on each head - Help?

    Problem Solved- turned out a while back I adjusted the "Base Head Height" and it had inturn adjusted how far the heads sat away from the capping station - as a result the caps were not getting good suction, which inturn did not allow me to get ink pulled back into the heads. On the Jv5 there is...
  2. JV5 - Lost 1/2 of my Cyan on each head - Help?

    I've lost the left bank of cyan on each of my heads - this sometimes happens because I believe I have a faulty sensor on one ink cart line and it tries using an empty cartridge instead of switching over to the new one and puts ink in the line as a result. I've had it happen before, usually I do...
  3. Flatbed Opinions Wanted

    I have a 72uvr and thought the same thing- until I saw the new Oce Arizona / Fujifilm Accuity. It rivals even my 1440dpi solvent machine. The quality is phenomenal and it does around 250~sq ft/hr in very presentable quality mode. It also has a roll-to-roll option which is nice. I'm thinking it...

  5. Help!! Dotty/Grainy Prints Versacamm and Mactac 8300 pro

    Put your print heat at around 28deg c, and pre-heat at 27 or so. I'm not familiar with that machine, but thats a good place to start.
  6. Looking into a Colorspan or Vutek.

    If I buy a used VuTek do they still provide phone support? Or do you need to have a service plan with them?
  7. Automated flatbed cutters for banner, foamcore, etc?

    We already have a keencut, as well as a electro trimm plus (this thing is the SH!T); however i'm still looking for something quicker and more accurate. In addition to the foam core jobs, we also cut alot of 15mil poly prop type product large trade show booths, and they need to have 100% dead...
  8. Automated flatbed cutters for banner, foamcore, etc?

    Any ideas as to what some of these methods might be? I have some substantial orders of foam core and other misc materials that are a PITA to cut, and very time consuming. Something like this might save alot of time and money in the long run if it truely is accurate.
  9. Automated flatbed cutters for banner, foamcore, etc?

    I was in a big print shop, and I was chatting with the owner about trimming and such - and he commented about how he izune or something like that, and how it does the cutting of banners and such automatically. He showed me the unit it an it looked like a cnc cutter, but really light duty...

  11. Raster Printer UVZ720 - Any Good?

    What types of problems? Keep in mind - I'm ONLY printing roll to roll? The seller has told me of some issues, as well as a PILE of fixed he made to the machine, plus its only $5k.

    Anyone know this printer very well? Raster Printer UVZ720
  13. Display Maker 72uvr... good segway printer?

    Wow guys! Thanks for the quick response! Regarding ink costs, is $0.20 a fair ball park? Do they run well under high volume orders? (10-20k sq ft?) Also - what are resonable expected print speeds under production, medium q and high q modes?
  14. Display Maker 72uvr... good segway printer?

    We're thinking about making the move to a UV machine, but I don't want to dive in head first and buy a $100k machine. I have the ablity to get one of these for around $20k, and use it to build up that spectrum of my business a bit, and then go from there. Keep in mind, I'm mainly doing roll...
  15. Anyone Know About Colorspan Displaymaker Printers?

    I'm looking at a 72UVR, is this a comperable unit, or better quality than the x12?
  16. Flatbed Printers

    Glad I found this post- we're looking at getting a UV printer for printing on certain materials. It also helps that Gandi is about 10 minutes from our office! Anyone know what the cost is of the NanoJet UV printer they sell?
  17. Cost/Sq. Ft.???

    $2 per square foot? Thats either pricey shop space, or not alot of volume - or both! We run aroud $1.2/sq running oem HS ink through our JV5 (including other misc. expenses) If your running aftermarket inks for ~$100/l you can be looking to cut down your ink costs by as much a...
  18. Problems with JV3

    I just bought another used JV3 as well - same issue. Do a bunch of nozzle washes, an then open up the back panel and hook a syeringe on to the tubes running from the cap station, and lightly pull ink down through. Should help, but its important that you clean the capping station first so you...
  19. price of ink going up 30%?

    ND Graphics I'm guessing? Got the same thing down the pipe other day. What is your final cost per cart now? I haven't ordered since before the price increase - as soon as I found out I bought a pile of ink.
  20. JV5 what's your thoughts?

    I bought one about 2 or 3 months ago. Love the thing - fast as hell, and the quality is quite good. My only greivance is the uptake system which is a complete POS. But once you get use to it you'll have no big problems - just make sure not to put the tension on too tight. In terms of quality...
