64" Wide

Epson SureColor SC- S30600 4 color system eco-solvent

Epson SureColor SC-S70600 (8Color) eco solvent

Roland RS-640

Mimaki JV5-160S

are some 64" wide printers that could come in handy for outdoor signage production.

I like roland system with integrated cutting plot, its ideal for car add with addhesive pvc

If you are in the US try to make it to the ISA (Intl Sign Assoc) show in Las Vegas in April. If you are in Europe or EMEA, there is FESPA in England coming up in June.. These are both great tradeshow to get a first hand look...

we are located in Australia, there is a trade show in May we will be attending.

Its looking that it is much much cheaper to buy internationally, even + shipping

i guess it always is cheaper, a former collegue of mine seperated from my previous employer to found his own company, he bought two wide format printing machines from korea. even a technician from there went with it to install and fine tune the machine. I have no idea what brand it is or whats modell name, but one machine uses UV inks to harden/dry the print instantly the other machine uses eco-solvent ink.

His main focus is Outdoor PVC print for car decals, banners, flags and truck
