Congrats on the addition! Get yourself some swabs for the head too, soak it with solvent cleaner and you can get a little more scrubbing action on the heads. My old Roland was annoying and the nozzles got dirty super fast
Glad to see a new upload. I figured you were probably busy. Congrats on the new purchase, it'll open up a lot more opportunities for you moving forward. Can't wait to see more of what it can do.
Love to see you back on RUclips! Interesting that you shut your machine off daily, does your machine have any circulation pumps? If so you might be wise to leave it running to keep the ink flowing through the ink.
Thanks Matt! I don’t believe that it does. I could leave it on, but still need to shut the valves in case the power did go out. We haven’t really had power issues in the past but I don’t want to deal with the aftermath if it does lose the pressure. I think something happens where the ink back flows into the pressure tubes and creates a mess!
@@stevethegraphicsguy very interesting! Our vanguard which ironically has identically control software mists ink every 10-15 seconds. So it is constantly wasting ink but it keeps the lines pressured.
When i saw the summa barcode printing along the 8 foot edge i was wondering how that was going to work lol, do you not use the barcode workflow with your summa?
I do not miss my flatbed. 😂 I also love my summa.
Haha. Glad you found me here!
glad to see you back. Enjoy the videos
Appreciate it! Glad you are enjoying them!
Welcome back! I always learn so much from your content.
Appreciate you watching and I am glad you find the content helpful!
Glad you're back man! I learn more from your channel than most others on large format printing, keep em coming!
Appreciate that, I'm working on getting some more done! Anything in particular you want to see?
Might get a Sino colour flatbed in the future.

Appreciate that, I'm excited to start using it more and sharing what it can do with everyone!

Looks really solid,, congrats! Since it came from overseas, did you set it up yourself?
I didn’t buy it direct from overseas. I bought it from a vendor locally so they delivered and set it up for me!
Yeah, can’t afford those flatbed in Australia 🇦🇺 either.
nice! is there a reason you prefer flatbed over regular printer?
Just to print direct to substrate and eliminate vinyl when I can!

I actually don’t most of the time. I really only use it with paneled wall murals on a roll. Do you know how I can change it to be on the 4’ side?
@stevethegraphicsguy no sorry I don't, I don't have a flatbed printer so it's never come up.
HI LOVE THE WORK AND IS IT POSSIBLE TO PLACE A ORDER WITH YOU ? DO YOU USE POLYESTER PLASTIC TO PRINTE W A UV PRINTER
Whoo hooo! He's back! :D
