Here is an example of how this printer prints out of the box. The top two rows are just a random profile from my Mutoh 1624 at 720x720. The rest of the rows are all various profiles and resolutions from the 1641SR-P, almost all of which were printed at higher res than the old mutoh. The phone...

Thanks man - I actually have those 2 from that pack I was just able to install. Here's the thing - I think all of the profiles in the pack are fake. I tried running every profile already using a color swatch file and 4-5 different resolution combinations and guess what? Everything is...

Hey guys, I just found a way to get around the broken software. This is one of those blind luck situations lol. So I copied the .mpdf file into the /profiles/printer/ folder knowing it wouldn't do anything because it wasn't .icc files. When I started vertelith up and went into profiles...

So I made a post a few days ago about poor impressions of this pro model printer. I am still unsure of how well it performs because I just discovered the tech didn't install any profiles (it comes with generic) and the Vertelith software is BROKEN and won't download the profiles. More on this...

Hello, So I got my Mutoh 1641SR-P setup today and started doing some tests. For my tests I basically did a dozen color swatches including 4-5 that are way far out into RGB gamma like lime green, hot pink, bright blues etc and a few images with fine details and some smooth areas. For quality...

Hahahaha - thanks. I thought 1.6 sounded too good to be true. I appreciate it, at least I know what's coming now!

Where did you see the mechanical drawing for the head? I see your attachment but where did you find it mention that this is the drawing for the SR41 pro? I appreciate your time with these replies btw!

So I just got an email from my salesguy who contacted Mutoh for me to ask what the picoliter drop size was before I bothered to post here. The reply I got claims the drop size is 1.6 - can this be right? That seems incredibly small, almost half the DX7 from what I remember.

That's strange! We are still running a 1624 but we use the 1000ml bags. The low ink warning is hit and miss but if the machine does happen to run out of ink the printer doesn't stop. Are you getting a subtank empty error then? I can print for 30 minutes without an ink cartridge in without...

Thanks for this information! I did a quick google on that printhead and I think you might be correct on the head they used. I'm a little confused on the appearance though - The L1600 looks like it only has 2 channels of nozzles but I can't find much info to really see how it's setup. It looks...

Just curious about the pro model. I have owned Mutohs for 15 years now and really love them. I see that the 1641SR Pro went away from having a DX printhead to some Mutoh designed printhead which makes me excited and nervous at the same time. Anyone have any opinions or input on this? I...

I guess that's a good thing when you're replacing the failed job :cool:

Part 2

I guess you're right - 3m's website does say cast but it must be a cheaper method besides just the extra stuff as you describe. Go look at a roll of 8508 that has been sitting for a few months, I just did and it has shrunk back from the release liner about 1/8" which is quite a bit for a cast...

So you might want to make sure this is correct. I have always assumed and still believe 8508 to be a CALLENDAR product not a cast one. Grimco has been telling people for years it's cast but it most definitely is not. 8508 6-8 years ago used to be really nice and glossy. It felt soft to the...

When I say I gave up on them long ago I am referring to expecting them to stand behind their product. Do to availability and such their products are still a requirement around here if I want to finish jobs on time. As for the vhb - it wasn't VHB, it was the white foam variant not the more...

I would like to clarify that I have LOTS of jobs out there in the wild and most jobs are flawless even years after their rated life span. I have 180cv3 jobs out there that are 7 years old and still passable from a 10' viewing distance and no cracks in the florida sun. Most of the these issues...

To clarify - you laminate with WHITE vinyl.

Hello Everyone, So I wanted to reach out to the community and see if anyone has noticed their normal products failing much sooner than you are used to? Over the past year myself and several other local sign companies I am friends with have been having jobs turn black or dark brown in the light...

Anytime I've ever seen that it was bad 3m vinyl. 3m's IJ40 and IJ35 in gloss are always problematic like that for me while NO OTHER vinyl or brand seems to get it as often. In every case it has been defective vinyl. You'll pull your hair out trying to trouble-shoot it. See how the red ink is...
