    I have a l360 and the epson s50675, I prefer the quality of the canvas off the HP over the epson. Both machines i ised used the same magic matte stretch canvas. Both machines had had a custom profile created through caldera. Previously we had a Mutoh 1608hs and feel it had better canvas...

    We are moving into a new shop in the next couple weeks. Our current tables are 5'x10' end to end to make a 5'x20' table. They are made from 2" steel box tubing welded together. I have crap stored under them on pallets now. One end has a 4'x2' adjustable shelving unit. I will be building 2 more...
  6. caldera or onyx? Please help me decide.

    I am looking at the same change myself. I have been using Onyx for about 6 years now(multiple upgrades) with our Mutoh printers. I am in the process of completely changing my large format department. The plan in the next month includes adding a new Fuji acuity, a used Zund flatbed, a new HP...

  13. Ceiling Murals

    The ceiling is more of a permanent install, its the walls that will be changed out. We had discussed using panels previously but he didn't like that.
  14. Ceiling Murals

    This is not a permanent install... They were quoted on a cheap material as they will be replaced 3-4 times a year. Worst case scenario is twice a year. Most wall murals/graphics we do are on IJ180. Im looking into getting some Phototex to test out, may be better for the walls as well as it...
  15. Ceiling Murals

    I'm actually looking for a way to save the customer some money... Not trying to make money. To give an understanding, the wall murals are 8' high and 9' wide and is $600 installed using the intermediate vinyl. The ceiling was quoted at $31xx as is 13'x 17'. There is some sq ft differences...

  18. Onyx vs. Caldera

    First off, all I have used is Onyx. 7, 10 and 10.1. I learned that the different file type makes a huge difference on how long it takes to load and to rip a file. We used to use PDFs and they took forever, we switched to running everything as tiff files and they open and rip much faster...
  19. How do you hang your sintra prints?

    What about using something from the 3m Command line of products? Ive seen them used before for pictures and they came off the wall without damage. I believe they also have a velcro type product.
  20. Better quality Prints

    We used GFPhoto for the last 3 years with great results on our Mutoh VJ1608. Recently Ive had a couple bad rolls and unfortunately has turned me off on their product. We do a LOT of business with Fuji and ordered some of their Satin Photo paper and it prints wonderfully. I personally thing...
