Re: Taking a break

<t>Am taking a break from sublimation printing (photos on Chromalux sheets), so I have a Ricoh SG7100DN printer with practically no sublimation ink left in the tubes and want to convert it to "normal" printing. Does a simple head flush or two do the trick or is there any special way?<br/>
Not ...

Re: Easels for Chromaluxe tabletop sized sheets

I actually ended up buying from Xpres, but the box came torn and empty in the mail!! So....have left empty handed with the hope that I can get my money returned, rather than a credit note..

Re: Easels for Chromaluxe tabletop sized sheets

<t>Thank you all for the replies. I have found that particular easel (that you all indicated through various sources) to be a wee bit too fragile. Customers open and close the easel too many times (actually not even that many times) and it just snaps off! Hence the other alternative which I can buy ...

Re: Easels for Chromaluxe tabletop sized sheets

<r>Does anyone know where I can buy these easels from in the UK? the "normal" ones tend to break too easily. These are great. I can buy them in the US, but will be in the UK next week, so easier to shop whilst there. Thanks for any info.

Re: Press Time and Temp for Epson inks and Chromaluxe

Thanks Webtrekker. As the Ricoh uses gels and the Epson in water based inks, I am sure it is a shorter time - will have a few tests and see. Shame to waste expensive imported sheets, but...such is life..

Re: Press Time and Temp for Epson inks and Chromaluxe

Absolutely! The shop I bought them from is closed right now so was hoping for some alternative hints. Thanks!

Re: Press Time and Temp for Epson inks and Chromaluxe

<r>My Ricoh has just run out of ink (of course...and no, they are not available in Brazil <E>:(</E> ) and so I will be using an Epson L355 printer for some quick Chromaluxe sheets. I am used to 200 degrees C and 75 secs for the Ricoh Gels with the press, but have no idea where to even start on temp ...
