I have a fully functioning summa s140t tangential cutting head that should fit all the first generation tangential s class cutters. Came off of a machine that had a bad main board. $475.00 shipped. Pm me for pics please
Less than 5 hours cut time, bought new in November of 2019. Still have box and all accessories. Warranty is transferable, roughly 2.5 years left. Cash up front. You must pickup. Pm for pictures. This one has the ethernet port in addition to the printer B output. I'm upgrading to a tangential...
Time for me to move on and get a bigger printer. I don't use the cutting function but it works great. Prints perfect, head test is %100. 54" size. SS21 ultra durable solvent inks running CMYK colors setup. Manually cleaned daily, super clean and ready to work. Comes with a copy of Rasterlink 5...
Hey, great suggestions. I actually don't have any kids and not many friends with kids so my in with the schools is limited. I am late to the party on the graduation signs and banners but like you said Ill catch the next round. I am pretty good at design...I am not the quickest but my motto has...
I agree, I think referrals and word of mouth are king once you get going. I really want to get my name at the school's within a 8 to 10 mile radius of me but I'm not sure if going in person is best or sending an email. Most public spaces like that don't want salesman/businesses just waltzing in...
Where did you place the signs? At customer jobs or just public spaces? I was planning like the others above said to go talk to local business owners and leave a flyer with my business card, obviously talk to them and see what they may possibly need in the future. I don't like to do push sales...
Thank you to everyone who replied! I knew I needed to hit the pavement and start dropping my name and services around town.
Imagine if you will for a moment that the very thought was already planted in my mind and then suddenly a virus messed everything up. I got a new batch of business cards...
So I have only been officially active for about 6 months now as a legitimate business and I am curious about what some of all you fine sign folks did to boost your exposure and get your name out there in order to gain more leads.
Facebook and google ads only do so much and haven't really...
I went ahead and switched out the media and did the same exact squares as the first set on the previous media and they came out essentially perfect...I'm thinking solventinkjet is on to something with the buckling. I'm going to slag off about 6 feet of the other new roll and put a tail on it for...
Oh yeah I suppose, alot of business's shut down! I'm fortunate enough to be working my day job yet. But that may change any day now. I can pop the cover and take a look at them but I'll be honest I don't really know how to troubleshoot the dampers. My black ink is getting pretty low, estimate...
Wow fast reply! All are under 3 months old and I clean every single day. This literally just started two days ago. Same color, same prints and all of a sudden it appears. Oh, and nozzle check comes out literally perfect. But it should, the head is only 1.5 months old.
So my Mimaki cjv30-130 (cmyk) had some problems with contaminated prints which ended up being a combination of small things...now fixed. However, now a new problem arises. Please see the attached photos. I noticed it in some prints that I normaly print with these colors...like a magenta/very...
It ended up being a combination of several things. Dirty encoder strip, static and the main carriage belt. All better now. Thanks to everybody that posted a tip! Hopefully this thread helps somebody in the future too.
I'm actually starting to wonder if this is happening. I think you have confirmed my suspicions. I know for a fact the media was free of static and dust on my last run and I still got contaminates. I'm going to have to talk to my printer guy and see if this has happend before. The machine is 9...
Yes the photos were printed at the same settings and same media. I can't find any issues in either of them (one at 12 pass and one at 24)
I used a new swifter duster and then hit it with a tac cloth, just rubbing it lightly with no pressure.
It's just strange that the spot colors are having...
I'll give it a shot but my only other thought is that the roll is contaminated.
But for kicks I printed a high quality photo and it printed just fine with no defects. So now I'm wondering if it's the color management...
Hey everybody I appreciate the help on this. I've never encountered it this bad before....
I tried upping the heat to 40 40 50 and did 24 pass and it actually made it worse. Also precleaned the media and dusted it with a swifter in one direction before printing. It looks almost like a bit of...
