Hi Guys . we recently purchased an FC8600 so we could cut thicker ( 21 mils ) materials - primarily graphics for offroad applications. Printed on the Roland with reg marks then laminated & cut on the Graphtec. We have just updated the firmware , use CM3 with multiple reg marks ( each corner and...

We are looking for a good, used Graphtec 8600 - 30", 42" or 54" . Please P.M if you have one or know anyone that wants to sell theirs. Thanks.

P.M sent - thanks !

Thanks guys, great info. We are leaning toward a Summa 30 " D series. I understand the T series has some additional features but at $6k it's a bit out of our price bracket.

Thanks everyone ! I tried contacting Graphtec, left messages , sent e-mails etc and haven't heard anything in over a week. E-mailed Summa and within an hour a had a 'phone call from someone, talked me through the available options even mentioned that he would get a sample of the materials we...

I've had a dig through some old threads and got some good info but wanted to get some fresh feedback. We need a plotter we can cut graphics with after we've printed ( on a Roland ) and laminated. The vast majority are for offroad motorcycles so pretty thick - 21mils. A flatbed is out of our...

O.K so had the tech come out. There is some code, numbers or whatever he had to input so the new carriage board recognizes the correct shade of black of the registration marks. Couldn't have done it without the codes and only the techs have access to them. All good and I still saved some...

I've ended up sucking it up and having the tech come out, will be here today. I'll post the results hopefully someone may find them useful

I did ( in both instances ) , to be honest the cost to get them out was too high for us hence changing the parts ourselves.

Hi guys ,I posted this in the thread about tech training but thought I'd start another thread also. Because of the cost of getting a tech out I decided to change out my cut carriage cable & board myself, all went very smoothly however the machine cannot now find the cut registration marks. It...

Hi guys, just found this thread and couldn't agree more with the general sentiments.Roland Techs seem to be very $$ and not very helpful. Because of that I decided to change out my cut carriage cable & board myself, all went very smoothly however the machine cannot now find the cut registration...

I need a company who can print my wraps for me ideally in So Cal but I can deal with it if not. Any ideas ? I also need an installer to do contract work as and when it comes in. Thanks guys !

I'm looking for a company that can print my vehicle wraps for me. Any recommendations ? I know of Tribute & Georgia Print Co but was looking for someone closer to San Diego ideally. Thanks !

Do you guys make your own templates or purchase them from somewhere ?

Hi I'm thinking of getting in to the sign biz via a franchise and have been looking at Signworld ( www.signworld.org ) . I know franchises generally have a bad rap, anyone got any opinions or had any experience with this one ? Thanks !
