  2. Third Party Ecosol Max inks, Cuantek Review?

    Hi guys! Sorry I hadn't actually looked at any responses and TBH had forgotten that I even made this thread until this morning one of the reps from Cuantek contacted me asking me to heed advice on my thread responses of which led me here right now :) thanks I read all the posts and I laughed a...
  3. Third Party Ecosol Max inks, Cuantek Review?

    okay... so I have some concerns. I am looking for people who are using Cuantek inks for their Roland machines. My machine warranty ended in late 2013 and I therefore decided to switch over to using Cuantek inks, it took me a while to go through my 440ml of original Roland OEM Ecosol Max...
  4. Looking for affordable contract Label/sticker Printer

    thanks everyone for your replies! I will definitely be in touch with those of you who offered to do quotes and I do understand timing, thankfully my client is very laid back and never really in any rush (what a blessing hahaha) as soon as artwork is finalized I will send you all a pdf of the...
  5. Looking for affordable contract Label/sticker Printer

    hi Pete, the artwork is not finalized at the moment but it would have raster elements and just a spot color metallic for the areas they want to look metalic (those parts would be vector), no pantone color matching (my clients are not picky) and I believe that screen printing would be fine, I...
  6. Looking for affordable contract Label/sticker Printer

    okay so I am a little bummed that years ago a sister company to signs2trade (labels2trade) came and vanished almost as quickly as it appeared. They had darn good prices ( maybe that's why they are gone haha ) anyway I have a customer who is looking for labels with preferably metallic ink, a...

    ooookay... so I got it working again... thanks to this thread from 2013 http://www.rolandforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=2419&sid=... So my ink cartridge was indeed full. So I replaced it, kept getting the utility closing, removed each cartridge and shook it. replaced them, force quit...
  8. HELP! BN-20 utility keeps closing on me

    Okay so I thought it was just my PC so I restarted the PC but this keeps happening :( help! BN-20 utility launches then briefly displays ink levels and then the window closes almost immediately. I try relaunching and it says the utility is still running, then I click and click again until the...
  9. What kind of vinyl is this? (printable - clear backing)

    Did you ever figure out what this was? I came across the same thing with a company called "WinCraft" and am interested in learning.
  10. Didn't see this topic covered need advice on Eco Sol vs max

    thanks again :) I'm actually on my 3rd year with these and my friend with a larger printer who also lives here in San Diego did warn me about a brand HE used one time that did not preform well and ended up costing him a lot to flush out his heads. I wont bash on the brand here but I can safely...
  11. Didn't see this topic covered need advice on Eco Sol vs max

    my regular supplier (Mc Logan) was completely out of 220 ml Cyan... and I have been using this aftermarket Cyan that has worked beautifully and I have not had any problems, the inks are 1/2 the price of the OEM ones and a reportedly performing the same IF NOT better than when I was on OEM, I...
  12. Didn't see this topic covered need advice on Eco Sol vs max

    actually the dumb thing is that I always get backup inks but then recently I started using 440 ml carts instead of the regular 220s I used to use before, so now when the machine says the inks are empty I end up pulling them out, then I realize they still are half full so I shoved them back in...
  13. Didn't see this topic covered need advice on Eco Sol vs max

    Okay so I'm pretty sure I'm going to run out of ink before my next shipment comes in, And unfortunately my local supplier happens to have run out of cyan as well and expects their delivery to arrive same time mine will -___- found a local person selling Genuine Roland eco sol inks that I can...
  14. I have no idea what is going on with my print head has anyone had this fuzzy issue?

    yeah... I know but I cross my fingers :( I also happen to know how involved it is to change the dampers on the BN-20 I looked at a service manual from the Roland tech a long time ago (he was kind enough to show me) and I saw that have to essentially remove ALL the housing of the machine to...
  15. I have no idea what is going on with my print head has anyone had this fuzzy issue?

    thanks. my machine is well out of warranty, and it's a BN-20 sooo servicing these machines is a PITA and the only way for me to get any info on how the printhead works is by running a Service app on the machine which only Roland techs can do, AND I am located in San Diego where there is only...
  16. I have no idea what is going on with my print head has anyone had this fuzzy issue?

    this... is definitely a major bummer because the BN-20 only has 1 print head... meaning I will have to replace the entire thing, at which point it's better to just invest in a larger printer. Sadly money is tight right now :(
  17. I have no idea what is going on with my print head has anyone had this fuzzy issue?

    oh God no.... I really hope this isn't the case :( I really cannot afford a new printer and if I did get a new printer I would go with a slightly larger model since this machine is slow and too small now for my needs... here's a closeup of the nozzle pattern...
  18. I have no idea what is going on with my print head has anyone had this fuzzy issue?

    oh I will take a look right now and let you know! Thanks. EDIT: okay just checked and I did it right :\ bummer I was hoping that would be it. I mean.... at the lowest resolution I don't see as much fuzz but I am thinking it's because it uses less ink in that mode sooo -__- darn it...
  19. I have no idea what is going on with my print head has anyone had this fuzzy issue?

    okay I cleaned the printer per usual, has new felt wiper, new plastic wiper, did a nozzle pattern check and the pattern turned out fine. I ran a print job at the highest quality setting of my BN-20 and I get this weird effect with the magenta... it seems to be.. what? maybe offset...
  20. Vinyl House Calls

    Did you try and diagnose this by referring to the original manual? If not there are sections on this site specifically designated for certain brands, models etc of plotters, go check those pages out and see if anyone reports a similar anomaly. We don't even know what model your Graphtec is...
