we are looking into purchasing a Canon Arizona 135GT UV flatbed printer. We are likely going to add the roll to roll option, so we can open doors to some different options that our HP Latex can't currently do. We are wondering if we would potentially be able to print onto fabric with the...

I'm trying to print a very detailed CAD drawing on a Canon Arizona 1360 flatbed using the roll media option. The paper roll is 36" wide. The plan's very detailed and I need to use a high quality setting. I resized it to 35.80 so it won't spill off the edge of the paper if it's not perfectly...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a little guidance here. We got a JFX200 a few months ago, and ever since we haven't been able to get consistent prints on the bed. When we do a head height check across the bed, it's all over the place. I've had multiple techs in from the distributor we purchased it...

I recently got a hold of a Graphtec FC4500-50 flatbed. So far, so good & I'm getting a hang of the machine and menus. It's clearly showing its age, but it all makes sense somehow and the machine does the job. I ran into an issue & I have a question that someone here might be able to answer...
