Here Im showing how to utilize a plotter and UV printer to produce kisscut UV sticker sheets. Yes there are printers than can do it, but spot white roll fed printers that can print and cut are hella expensive. For large qty runs that would make sense.

Flame Treating Plastic for UV

Quick little vid on how I battle adhesion issues on common PVC platics. The oily slick kind. Tips! Wear gloves to keep body oils off your products. Still always do a test print and do the tape test to see if adhesion meets your standards. The AP3155 excess can be removed with a clean cloth after printing and will NOT leave a residue. Any other questions please let me know and Ill try and answer...

Saving Baby Ducklings

One morning we were walking around our local park and noticed a duck unusually loud and quacky. Turns out they were trying to get someones attention. There were 5 baby ducklings trapped in one of the drains. No one had keys to unlock the drain trap, so we did what we had to. =) Enjoy the cuteness.
Epson Workforce 7720 Head Removal for Replacement or cleaning. One handed.
Переглядів 42 тис.3 роки тому
Sorry for the shaky vid, was under a table and had to do with one hand. This 7720 is converted for sublimation. Every so often the factory cleanings dont work to get clean test prints so this is always my last resort. Exercise caution, use 2 hands, and dont rush. To those who want to know, yes it worked. I had a few missing spots on black but a few cleanings after gave me perfect results. Enjoy...

Genius! Thank you!
THANK U VERRY MUCH🥰🥰🥰
So the problem I’m having is the same thing, but Instagram will only allow for 90 seconds of music regardless of reel or post. It’s retarded
Noice
Yess, it works. Thank you so much for this 'hack'!
What did I forget to do? The print head SLAMS to the left and screen says something about a power error 000031
Thank you. A view times I overtook you in a step and in my mind said to you: "Come on, you can do it!"
Thanks so much!! I love the video you got through it with 1 hand. Awesome!!
damn this was very long winded
Printer fixed. Thank you.
Your video is awesome, i love the candid remarks, esp about your bf. Have you ever had the carriage slam on the left side of printer when powering on? I found a video about cleaning the clear tape/ribbon and its clean. I dont know if cleaning the head causes this?
Does it still put it in the reels algorithm and feed?
Hello, I'm currently facing an issue and I'm hoping you can provide some advice. I'm working with metallic vinyl (gold), and I'm adding a white ink background to the artwork. However, I want to have text show through in the gold vinyl material. When I set the text color to standard white and the background to grey-white (RDG white) in Illustrator, VersaWorks doesn't render the text properly; it just shows the entire thing in white. However, if I have a black or any other colored background and leave the text in standard white, it shows up in gold. This issue only occurs when I'm printing with a white ink background. I hope this explanation clarifies my problem. Apologies for any confusion. any advice or tips is appreciated.
Thank you!
What platform do you use to create your longer videos?
Thanks for the tip :)
Did you soak the whole print head in hot water? Or did you just run hot water over the nozzles under the water so it wouldnt get into the connectors
Hello, I am interested in acquiring the VersaUV 300D: are you happy with choosing the extra size capability? Do you use it enough to make it worthwhile? Just basically wondered how often do you get requests for oversized printed items?
Thanks for the tip
These instructions are great. Thank you!
OMG!!!!!!! YOU ARE AMAZING!!! My Epson WF7210 was working perfectly last night, this morning I get the dreaded error 031004...nothing worked. I actually thought it was dead..went and bought a new one but when I got home I found this video and thought what the hell..its dead anyway. I turned it off, did everything you said to do and put it back together and OMG ITS WORKING!!!!!!!!! Thank you SO MUCH!!!!! You are a life saver!!!!
I'm interested in how you prepare the lighters for printing..... some have a strange plastic that the UV print doesn't stick and a primer is needed... but which primer... officially there is no case for plastic PRIMERS in UV printing....I'm looking over the internet for that kind of primer :)
thanks for the tutorial.
hola saludos desde Colombia , mi impresora imprime bien el test pero, imprime doble las letras y las lineas no son rectas
Thanks girlie I have a wf 7820 that just won't clear the black, so I'm gonna try this. Lort help me or I'm gonna throw this expensive printer to the wall. Lol
Really helpful. Thank you.
Where are you able to buy a printed head replacement? I am unable to find them online.
Thanks! Just what I needed! :)
Thank you. I will give it a try - try to clean first, then replace if cleaning doesn't work. I can't seem to unclog the yellow head. I see that you use some of the same technical exclamations that I use when I am working on things ;-)
Wear Gloves!! Great Video!!
Thanks for the tutorial. Is there a way to control the opacity of the white channel? In other words a way in which I could control the density of the white that gets printed form within the file itself?
I think if you lower the opacity with the fill control that MAY work.
My boyfriend jumping meee😂
Thank you! Great information :)
Do I need to do this if it prints blank
liking the video and subscribing the channel not because it helped me what I was looking for, but because I like your voice ❤
Aw thank you =)
Are you available for questions. I can’t find anyone who has converted their printer that might be able to give me some insight to my problem..
I tried everything, did this and now it will not print only blank pages when I print but will print purge pages but nothing I print... any suggestions 🤦🏾♀️
So, I took out my printhead exactly the way you showed, but a little square sensor came off somewhere and I have no clue where from. Any suggestions?
Very descriptive. Unfortunately it does not address reassembly, which is MUCH harder. In particular, organizing the birds nest of ribbon cables, while replacing pieces is a nightmare.
Yes because I cannot put the ribbons back so I can assemble the print head back.
I used your video to clean my print head, but I cant put it back because of the ribbons
Same here .
first step didnt work for me. what did you save it as?
Which part?
This was great - clear and followable and the f-bomb is one of my favorite words!
Do you have a video of the inside of the printer printing?
Thank you for your help. Appreciate your hard work and for sharing.
I followed the instructions, but after putting it back together, the printer gave me an error, the printer stopped working.
Great illustration
Thanks for valuable content, I wonder why you did prefer LEF2-300D and not Mutoh or Mimaki brand? Did you considered all other brands and decided Roland one at the end? Thanks.
This is a great video. I was exactly looking for this. Can you please post a video of cleaning the head ? I am also exhausted all the option of geting my 7710 working properly. This is my last resort but I have never opened printer before and looking for hand holding.
Thank you very much! Very helpful. I need to do this to mine and had no idea how.
I got it apart, cleaned the head, put it back together but im not getting any black. I replaced with a new cartridge, 2 printhead cleanings, let sit 24hrs, tested again, still no black. Did 2 more cleanings & let it sit, tried again & its finally faint. Ive used almost a whole cartridge of black but its not showing on paper. Any suggestions? No errors are showing.
Hi, Can you make a video about your reviews and maintenance of Roland UV printer. Is it worth for a small shop, what do you think. Thanks in advance.
Absolutely! Ill do one for sure =)
@@clearcutmethod Thanks 👍
