digiprint-supplies.com has them and was also willing to send some instructions/give support for installation when I asked. I think they were around 1200? Thinking of getting one myself since the black needs replacing.

Do you have the tech manual for this printer?

I checked out that site. The one they have listed looks like the one for white/varnish, as those 2 use a larger picoliter droplet. It mentions a 30 p/l ink drop where the colors should be a 10 p/l if I remember right.

this has nothing to do with the head at all. but we are looking at one of these, used, and was wondering if any of you had an approximate cost of ink per square foot?
we currently silk screen everything by hand and it looks like this printer would be a good stepping stone for us to catch up a little.
thanks

Sorry to not be any use with regard to your question, but I am looking to buy the LED1600 II, but the samples seem to have a slight tackiness to them. Is this a trait of the ink or just poor profiles. I want to use it for indoor mat vinyl and bannerstands, but I am concerned it will scratch if not laminated. We have an OCE arizona and used to a hard cure ink so the Fuji is a little concerning at the moment.


Thanks for any help

Which Oce inkset are you using? We're using 256 series and I find it very easy to scratch as well. I'm considering switching to a different inkset that will be more durable.

Thanks.

We had problems with hand marks on substrates with the 256 inks so swapped to the 258 - revelation!! not as wide in the colour and a more mat finish but its almost bullet proof. Matches the PVC foam baord we print on really well but we cant crease it on card as it cracks. Its fine on banner PVC though.

Good to know, thanks. Was it a huge ordeal to swap the inks? I do love the color gamut of the 256 ink but I'm always concerned about prints getting scratched.

no just purge it through and replace filters lost of frothing and a bit of mess but really easy.

There are a few things I would like to get from you, like some pieces form the tables. Wondering what shipping would be to the states???
