  2. Need Help Mimaki UCJV300-160 PULL BACK AFTER PRINT: White Ink Out of Alignment (COLOR -> SPECIAL COLOR)

    It's pretty fine when printing "simultaneously" but unfortunately, in order to print white and glossy clear in the same job, you need to first print the white underlayer, and then the top color and clear gloss in the "color -> special color". Is there any way to make gloss work with the...

    Hello Signs101, I'm looking for a flatbed that can print on rigid media up to 4in thick. I'm pretty sure I've seen them around even though the usual is 2in. I also need it to print white and clear ink. Price is not an issue. Thanks!
