  1. question on spindle hub

    I have an HP latex 315 and need to get a new spindle hub. I have found some that say they are for the hp design jet. There is little to no difference between it and one made for the 315 (other than price). Does anyone know if it will work? It is 3" which is what I have now.
  2. Laminator question

    I currently have a hand crank laminator (hoping to upgrade soon). I have to put a hard surface under my material before laminating. I can’t just put my print in and run it through bc it leaves a lot of bubbles. Is this just bc it is a cheap hand crank or am I doing something wrong?
  3. looking for small sticker machine

    Does anyone know of a small machine that will print and cut small label stickers. I need to be able to print and cut multiple designs.
