Curious what everyone is using for thier outdoor vinyl printing on here.  Also if you could leave a comment on what ink you are using as in OEM, aftermarket, etc

 

Roland with Roland eco max inks here

previous printer came with and used Solaris aftermarket inks - had more clogs and fumes were worse - color was acceptable.

Oracal and 3m Digital Media,

I use both a Mutoh 1324 and a Mimiki JV3 160. Which ever one is running better is the one I like more  :lol:

 

I use OEM in the Mutoh and Bordeaux SS2 in the Mimiki

HP L25500 and now L260 user. Used to have a mutoh and hated it, operated a lot of others. Latex is amazing and low maintenence plus is cheap to run and very flexible.

oh yeah dont get me wrong they are v good but so much messing about if you use all sorts of media like canvas, banner, pop-up banners, wraps etc, they are very durable as i tested a canvas i printed by putting it out in a 2 day storm which rained non stop, put it back on the wall and you wouldnt even know the difference. so they have there good points.
