  1. I currently have an mh721 I am looking to upgrade I'm wanting a 24" cutter $1000 or less so gtech is out what do you guys suggest? Thanks

    I Have 2 MH-721.s and a Newstar OM-60 and I use my 721.s everyday.......5 days a week all the time, I have 3 cut stations and a print station, and my 721's everyday, I know I see a lota crap about them on here, But Bannerjohn said he had good luck with his and I got 1 two years ago, and this year got my second one, I have Flexi Pro,Signlab,Corel 9 and X3, and adobe photoshop 5 and these 721's just work great......BigJimT

    But if you want go and spend more money, but for me they cut as good as my Roland and Newstar

    have cut. :thumbsup:


  2. I use a material called Teslin and then laminate it. Teslin is a synthetic, so moisture is not an issue. From my distributor it costs around $1 a linear yard at 44" wide for the basic stuff. There is a version that is treated for ink jet for about twice the price, but the Epson does just fine with the basic stuff. It is not adhesive, however.

    I use the Treated vinyl to print on......by Avery and I get it @ Fellers....and then Frog juice it or laminate it.......sometimes both.....and it is adhesive.


  3. I started with a Roland 1100 24" a Roland 1050 and Signlab (Cadlink then) and Corel Draw 3

    Now I use a Newstar 24" Omega OM60 and a MH-721 and as Banner Says.......I use it all the time

    and It cuts a lot of vinyl at 80 grams 24 speed and serial port hookup.......I use it with 5 differant Computers and It works with all of them......as well as my epson R-1900 printer and I still use Signlab on

    a windows 98 system........and flexi pro on the XP pros.... From what I read here some of you need to

    learn your system better........I know that didn't go well.........as your all experts but belive me after 18 years with computers I am not and nither are most of you.........you just have to work with them. and learn your system........as as Banner says........they all will cause trouble.....
