Can you run a 24x18 coroplast blank through your printer? If so, is it practical for small jobs?

Wayne, the only digital printer that can do that is a flatbed printer and those are very expensive. I'm hoping in the next few years that they will drop the price like the other digital printers did. I waited 2 years before I finally bought my Roland 30" VersaCamm back in 2005. It was one of the best purchases I've made. I can see how a flatbed printer would be very useful in a small shop. It is supposed to be able to print on many different substrates. Sure would change the "printing" business for most sign shops. It may make screen printing signs obsolete.
Where's a crystal ball when you need one.

Sign-cerely, Steve

I had some political signs done, last fall, by an outfit in Texas. They were digital prints.

It would seem this would greatly reduce mess, waste, stink, and all those other wonderful aspects of a screen print shop.

Somewhere along the line, I'd think it would offset the added cost of the equipment.

hp26500 i think is it new call number was 25500....some older ENDCADS, not flatbeds, could print on some sub straights up to 1/2 inch thick.
