    Curl on edge of gatorboard using arlon dpf-4500glx

    Trial and error. Maybe there's a thicker vinyl?

    Eco sol inks make some vinyls edge curl unless you laminate them.

    Excellent choice. We've had a 1650 for years and still love it.

    Are Mimaki Eco Solvent Printers Any Good??

    To eliminate profile issues run the print again without any colour correction. As others have said, check head height and nozzle function.

    Vehicle magnets

    Vehicle magnet sheets are usually thicker than fridge magnet stock so check that.

    Onyx 22 question

    Speeding up the printer will normally change colour - you should really reprofile for accuracy if you do that.

    White Ink Query on HP R1000

    It should be fairly simple to make a Spot 1 layer with those percentages of white in Illustrator. Or have 2 layers - 1 at 30% and another 100%

    20-100 x A2 posters aka 'affordable' B2 digital printer

    We could get close to that on 130gsm on our Colorado for qty 100. A bit more $ for less qty. We're in Sydney too.

    Epson P9000 - Printing Wrong Size

    What RIP are you using? I know in Onyx you can add a compensation factor to allow for this kind of problem. You print a line then enter the measured length then it adjusts every print afterwards.

    Taking over a wide format business

    Unless you have broad experience in signage I'd say it would be a headache

    Heard of anyone using a Flatbed Inkjet to make highly accurate/repeatable film positives or negatives for making screens or plates?

    I don't know about screens but a true flatbed is very accurate for repeatability. Belt fed printers, not so much.
