thanks Tim,... email sent. Allen

Hey all, I have a BN-20 and am looking for thin white film media (permanent adhesive backing). I've looked in quite a few places to no avail., Does anyone know of a source for this? thanks Allen

see my post immediately above yours. a new white cartridge fixed the problem. thanks Allen

Finally able to solve problem, thanks to our local rep, Imager's Supply in Louisville,.. (thanks Mark), and Roland. They sent me a new White Ink cartridge,... and that did the trick,... now the printer is printing white much much better!!. thanks again Allen

thank you very much for doing this.... much appreciated!!!!! Allen

thanks for that, yes, noticed that my blacks weren't as good as they should be. Allen

Yes, I'm trying that as we speak! (er post!) :) Mike at Imager's Supply (where I bought the printer) said Roland told him to tell me to try this very thing. I shook the heck out of the cartridge,... then did two powerful cleanings,... now I'm re-printing the decal. thanks for the hints!

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh :(

Here's the eps file, done in Illustrator. http://www.treasure-cove.net/Roland/RingDecal.zip and yes, I think I did the flood coat correctly.

edge? sorry, but I'm not understanding what you mean. Allen

Ok, here are some samples that I've printed. I do "High End" restorations of Pinball Machines., and these decals go over the lighted plastic inserts on the playfield. (incandescent or LED underneath) These decals have "alot" of white lettering and graphics,... so they need to be as solid...

I'm trying to do some samples right now,.... how long do you wait for the white to 'dry' before putting on another coat? ... I' m doing 30 minutes .... but at this rate... it'll take 2 hours to print a small 1" x 2" decal... :( Does ne1 know if there's a quick way to "gas out" the ink, so I...

that's interesting,... hmmm., well then, how many passes does it normally take? 2,3, or ? thanks Allen

thanks for the info guys! Tomorrow, I'll print up some samples,... and take a few photos to post up so you can see what I'm talking about. thanks again Allen

Still no luck,.... called Roland tech support and they want me to send a sample .. Does anyone know if there's a difference between Metamark Clear Vinyl, and Roland's Clear Vinyl? thanks Allen

Hey all, I have a Bn-20 with the white ink installed,... and although I was expecting the printer to print "white",... mine is only printing about a 20% white. Ran test prints,... everything looks good ,... but still, no "solid" white. ne1 have any ideas? thanks ALlen

Well,..... shute... I just purchased my BN-20 on May 4th, and I have a PC-12. (we talked to you on the phone before buying here in Louisville locally.) I'm wondering if there's a way to be able to take advantage of this,... seeing how it been only 2 weeks? thanks Allen & Ray

Thanks, I've been buying that, but I also had some Clear that was cut from a 30" roll, plus some 13" from my old PC-12 that I wanted to use. My dealer didn't even know about this,... but they're going to help me out and cut an inch off of my short rolls so they work in the BN20. Allen

not easy on the BN20. If you try to set the roller smaller than the paper size, .. the roller bracket hits the paper 'roll holder' , and even if you take that off,... still doesn't work... You 'can' set the roller out just a bit ... but then you'll get the roller doesn't rest on the...

I bought a new BN20 last week Ordered Roll vinyl, and .... anyway,... some was cut down from a 30" roll,... so I got a 20" roll and a 10" roll ... Plus I have an old PC12, that I had just bought a new roll of 13" vinyl .. Last night I had some small jobs to do, so I thought I put in...
