  2. Flatbed cutting latex ink and PVC, weird edges?

    Try putting two layers of pre-mask or transfer tape on the face (I believe you cut these with image side down) then using a caliper measure the thickness with the pre-mask on. Say for example if it reads .45” tell your machine to cut .44” only. This will clean your edge all the way and leaving...
  3. Mimaki JFX200 2513 vs Vanguard plus flatbed cutter?

    Hi Alamo, our company went with the Vanguard VK300D-HS because of the reliability of the industrial Kyocera Heads and the speed the 10 Heads can pump out. We also were lucky enough to get the Colex SXC1732 flatbed cutter. In my opinion, this machines is really top notch and they have an ongoing...
  4. Need Help machine has stopped heating mimaki jv3

    Hi, just replace one of the plugs. There are two power sources. One is for the electronics, while the other is for the heater and fan :) let me know if this works! sometimes the power source for one of the plugs may have tripped a breaker or something.
  5. Printing Multiple Artboards from one file

    A valuable tool especially when doing color corrections, just apply on the first page and it automatically is applied to all pages
  6. Printing Multiple Artboards from one file

    You can also go to the preview tab, (2nd tab) there is a page selection area, just click the page number you want and press apply.. previous versions of Onyx would scale artboards if your artboards have different sizes and caused a lot of issues. Now with Onyx 18 onwards, even if your artboards...
  7. Looking for Printer suggestions

    Just to give everyone an update, we have received our print samples from EFI and they were great. Really great adhesion on their inks. Even if it was a virtual demo, they were kind enough to use the substrates we requested and the files we provided, definitely a formidable machine and ink combo...

  9. Looking for Printer suggestions

    Hi, We are currently in the market for a printer upgrade. Current equipment we have are HP latex roll to roll printers and a CET 5’x10’ UV flatbed printer. We are happy with the HP’s and want to upgrade our current flatbed. We are looking at the following: 1. HP R1000 Plus Latex Hybrid...
  10. New HP Latex 700 and 800 series - with White ink

    - my thoughts exactly.. I don’t mind if speed is slow on a 5 layer print (every other printer is slow anyway at this mode) but these are seldom used anyway but nice to have the ability to do this :)
  11. New HP Latex 700 and 800 series - with White ink

    Was wondering if the hp700W can do blockout 5 layers cmyk-w-k-w-cmyk?
  12. Need Help Flexi + HP Latex + Summa

    First thing I would check is if the printer is printing in correct scale? Since latex printers rely on high temps for curing the vinyl stretches and contracts as it cools down. Onyx has a scale adjust in their profile manager to fix this. Not familiar with flex since all our machines are run by...

  14. Need Help Recommended vinyl and laminate to wrap corrugated shipping containers.

    Hi Pam, I would recommend 3M 3920 high tack vinyl. You can apply any UV overlaminate on it and the high tack adhesive will make sure it won't peel off even in cold weather installs.
  15. Need Help Mimaki flatbed printer streaking

    Overspray deflection caused by static issues. You may need to wipe the board first completely with a water/iso mixture of luke 70-30 ratio. You may want to introduce a humidifier to add more humidity if the air around you is dry. (One good way to tell is if you receive shocks when taking the...
