Is this screenshot from the service manual? If so, do you know where I can find a copy? Thx

It might actually be “rigid vinyl”, and not polystyrene. We used to order .020 rigid vinyl, and it came in 25 x 50” sheets.

Are you adjusting the vacuum size to the size of the material? And placing the material close to the right edge of the bed? That will help, but sometimes the vacuum can seem underpowered.

I think you're talking about the cut home sensor, or cut head sensor. This is a common piece that breaks with hard media jams while cutting. The sensor is only about $20 from your distributor. It was such a prevalent problem that Mimaki made a metal protector piece that can be installed over the...

I have the same machine, but with white ink, so that makes it pretty easy. However, I did have a job recently in which I needed to print a CMYK gradient onto some MacTac B Free frosted vinyl. I HAD TO OVEPRINT 4x using one of my standard profiles! In my experience, UV inks are just way more...

I don't know if there is an easy fix, but I typically have to use the pathfinder tool in illustrator, and clean up all the lines extending out of the desired cut area. Kind of a pain.

Nobody's buying your chinese propaganda. You joined last week, and have your profile locked up.....just like those russian and chinese trolls during election years. The whole "Corporate greed" thing is kind of a B.S. argument. When corporations have stellar years, everything doesn't just get...

Yeah, I used to own a large format screen-printing shop where we printed a decent amount of metallics and fluorescents, it is just cost prohibitive to screen print short run decals. I keep seeing pics from Roland and Mimaki (like the ones attached), that piqued my interest, hence my original...

Do any of you guys/gals have the ability to print metallic ink digitally? I know that there were a few machines (Roland, Mimaki, etc.) that had this capability, and I'd like to see the quality. I'm just trying to find an alternative to screenprinting, that is better suited for small runs...

I’m Olfa 30 degree all the way!

HulkSmash, are you a Dealer, and Phil was your customer in this scenario? If so, how long ago was this machine purchased? It seems that more recent purchasers have been happy, so I'm wondering if a lot of these computer issues were rectified with the F1612v3. Also, are you dealing directly with...

Have you tried the Arlon DPF 4500GL v3.5 profile? My ink system is 8 color - CMYKlmlcWW BTW. Ideally I'd love to use the manufacturers profiles for each media I print, but they just don't exist, and I've been able to avoid making my own profiles thus far :)

Did you buy that table from Summa, or is it some other brand that is less than eight bills?

This is a great idea! How are the casters holding up? How easy is it to move? I'm in the process of buying the 1612, and would love to have the ability to move it occasionally. Thanks! G
