Did you sell equipment? If you haven't sold, let me know how much. Thanks.

Our L26500 is doing a beautiful job of printing on all kinds of fabric. However, we are getting ink build up on the printer in the vacuum area. I'm assuming that the ink is spraying through the void areas in the weave. Does this ink build up hurt anything? Is there an easy way to clean it? The...

We're in North Mississippi. Suggestions on vendors? Thanks.

Colorado, I seem to remember a thread where you were going to purchase a FB700. Did something change your mind?

Great ideas! Great ideas! I'm going to try this. This particular photo is a closeup of a leopard lying on a rock with tree branches and leaves interspersed, so the leopard is in the middle ground, so to speak. Would the technique you mentioned still work?

Thanks Thanks everyone for the feedback and the generous contribution of your time. As always, great help! Drum

I have a customer that photographs wild animals in South Africa and he would like photos reproduced at approx 23" x 15" to hang in game preserve. He asked us to do these so I need suggestions and a source for printing. We will prepare digital scans from original photo. Thanks for your help.

I'm thinking I saw this printer at GraphExpo. If it's the printer I'm remembering, I think it only printed on uncoated paper.

Actually these are point of sale posters that are replaced monthly.

That's an interesting idea. Is there information on operating cost per sq ft?

We have been outsourcing to an offset printer. Essentially, we need a new (or good used) flatbed printer and I am turning over rocks to find a way to justify it. From the feedback on here, it sounds like I need to just keep on outsourcing this particular job. Can't hurt to poll knowledgeable...

As I mentioned, we currently have a 72 uvr that we are running hard but needs to be replaced in short order. Just trying to get a feel for the economics of newer printers and what to expect for "hard" production costs. If we could move some work in-house it would help pay for a new unit. We...

I have been looking at something like the FB500, FB700 or FB950 if I could find a good used one.

Gotcha. Fortunately, we are making considerably more than 50 cents a poster, but I get your point.

If I am figuring correctly, 4 over price is $19.42.

By the way, the questions about my sales prices, by their tone, seem to be suggesting something. Either I don't understand the point, or the questions are very naive. Thanks again for a great forum!

Thanks for the input. I still have a lot to learn about the economics of wide format so just wanted to make sure I'm not overlooking anything. It appears that, in these quantities, inkjet is still not competitive with offset. I am understanding that, for higher end printers, we can expect ink...

We are shopping for a new printer (we currently have a colorspan 72uvr) and I am evaluating work we are sending out to see if we can find a way to bring it in house. We are currently providing 550 posters per month (36 x 48 inches), printed offset on 100# gloss text, to a customer. They are...

Need board or press for parts. Press is down. Thanks.
