Roland VP300 Versacamm and Roland BN desktop

[Justin]

If your looking at new then the mimaki-cjv60 is a good option at 6k+ VAT and uses the new DX5 print head and is print and cut.

Can you show a link to this machine? Can't find any ref. to it

Is it the CJV30-60?

http://www.hybridservices.co.uk/ these guys are the main disto for mimakis in the UK (also plenty if vids on youtube the 60,100,130,160 are just the printer lengths)

With regards to doing t-shirts you can get good results if you have a good profile for you media, the rip also plays a large roll in quality too. But dont go expecting desktop print quality as you are not going to get it due to the droplet size being much larger.

My advice would be to give http://www.grafityp.co.uk/ a call and ask for a sample pack for all there textile media as it come pre printed so you can see some examples and test on some tees with regards to quality, feel and colour fastness.

That's a bargain no matter where it is located. I would be concerned as it is too cheap

Just spoke to the seller about this. I think he just wants it gone, sounds ok, not sure whether to go and take a look or just go for it . Maybe take a look at it working and then get it shipped over. Orkneys easy enough from here.

Go and take a look at it before you do anything

I would advise that you call Roland as they would be able to tell you what to look for and check before purchasing.

or... ask for serial number and then give it to company and wait what they say about this machine. maybe helpfull.

I was going for the bm20 but am looking to go bigger as I do think that I would outgrow the bn20.

fOR THOSE OF YOU LOOKING FOR

[socialgiraffe]

For those of you who are looking for a print and cut machine, has anyone tried on of the finance houses?

With so many companies going out of business they may have one or two.

I know that there is a company called 1pm finance who do finance versacamms. It might be worth at least a phone call
