Mimaki is a very good production printer, fast and reliable.

Great video! Maybe you can make comparison table to wrap everything up. Also, do you think Epson will launch new printer for ecosolvent in 2024? I believe their printer is the oldest among other brands

@graphicinsights466 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching and reaching out. That's a great video idea I will try and make that happen in future videos. You are correct with Epson's printer being the one of the oldest. Also one of the most reliable. I worked for a distributor that sold Epson and we thought they would come out with a new Eco-SOL just prior to Covid but didn't. Not sure if they will, but If they do, I will review it on the channel.

I’d like to learn more about the Roland and its features. What can you do with a Roland? Can you do decals? Printing for shirts? Etc

@graphicinsights466 5 месяцев назад

HI, Thanks for reaching out. Yes, you can print decals, banners, vehicle wraps and apparel with a Roland. They are great machines, easy to operate and easy to maintain. I would suggest going to www.rolanddga.com to learn more. Roland also has a chat option on their website to answer your questions fast.

in brazil, the consensus on reliability is roland, mimaki and hp either have too many problems or too many consumables

@Fleshybitz 3 месяца назад

Some of these are the price of a small car and a cars warranty is about 5 years. Its about time they bump these warranties at least the SG3 is 2 years. I expect at least that.

Would you please review the Roland VG3-540 or 640?

@graphicinsights466 4 месяца назад

Thanks for commenting. I will certainly do that.

Hi! I am looking to open a graphic business to print images to mount on foam board or coroplast. Which printer do you recommend to start with it can be from 36 in wide and no more than 48 in wide since the biggest size is 8x4.

@graphicinsights466 3 месяца назад

Hi, thanks for the question. The typical sizes of Eco-SOL printers are 30, 54 and 64". I would recommend a 54" or 64" printer. You have more media options with 54" and if you want color going to the edge (bleed), then you will need to print larger than 48". If you think you might expand to stickers or other types of graphics in the future, I would suggest the Roland or Mimaki. I lean towards the Roland with the 2 year warranty. If you don't need cutting, I would suggest the Epson S40600. It's a 64" printer that will will allow you to print wider if you ever need it but also offers the most balanced speed, color and price in an entry level machine. Good luck with your business!

Which printer may I use for calendars?

@graphicinsights466 3 месяца назад

If you’re looking to print desktop size paper calendars than any desktop eco-tank type printer would work. If you’re looking to print large wall calendars then any Eco-SOL, Latex or UV printer would work. UV would offer the most benefits with its capabilities of gloss and matte options.

Can the HP be plugged into a home outlet or do I need to upgrade the electric in my home?

@graphicinsights466 3 месяца назад

There are a lot of variables, age of your house, current service (amps) coming in and is there room in the panel. It's best to print the electrical requirements out for the printer and call a licensed electrician to come take a look at everything.

Nice video! By chance would you recommend getting wide format printers from china?

@graphicinsights466 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the comment! I would recommend buying one with a couple of cautions. 1. Know that support will be difficult IF you need it. Make sure you can get parts for it maintenance and for repair. Also make sure that if it comes with RIP software you may be on your own to figure it out and if you can use a mainstream RIP software like Flexi or Onyx that the software manufacturers have drivers to support the printer. Other than those things I think the savings is worth it, you may have to put more effort into getting that it to work. I think you just gave me a video idea.👍 what printer are you considering?

@kingk5994 4 месяца назад

@@graphicinsights466 Thanks for the quick reply.. haven’t really settled on any specifically but I’ve been eyeing the Grando Latex 3000

@davidjackson6960 3 месяца назад

I wouldn't touch Mutoh's, I have owned two of them and they are unreliable and hard to get parts and servicing especially in Australia, the HP latex is a great machine, but I would suggest a Latex 365 its faster and you can run fabrics. Mimaki and epsons are hit and miss I have owned a number of these brands, but Mimaki's flatbed solutions are very nice. I have a HP latex 365 and I would recommend that to anyone, but I also have the industrial series HP Scitex FB700 hybrid/flatbed UV which is way over the entry level solution's and after having such a great experience with the HP Latex 365 I just went overboard and brought a HP Latex 1500 superwide 3.2M industrial grand format! if your buying your own machines make sure you purchase the right solutions for your businesses needs. And do your research :)

I've had my Mutoh 1204 since 2010. Still running strong, i had to replace the head once, and that was earlier this year, (yes the original print head lasted 14 years), and replaced it myself with only a youtube video to help guide me.
