    Hi, im using the same setting print with bn-20 and cut using gs24. But the issue is that my gs24 cant read the crop mark even at the first registration mark. Is there something wrong with my gs? Need advice.

    Nice video, I am printing on HP Latex 335, and when send the material for cutting, have a lot of problems with X-Y offset ?One more think my cutter Roland Cam1 servo GX 24 reads only 3 of 4 crop marks? Any idea and /or suggestion of how to manage offset? Changing offset parameters from the cutter menu does not help?

    Why do you need GS24 for cutting when BN-20 can do both? GS24 needs BN-20 print? What about other print?

  • @keragraves1320
    @keragraves1320 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Are you able to print the crop marks and do an immediate print and cut. So click the box for crop marks, yet still use the print and cut setting immediately. We are having troubles with our printer staying consistent with its contour cut on 100s of labels. We want to be able to cut 100s of labels on the same sheet without having it go askew.

    • @lunchmoneyog
      @lunchmoneyog 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Its much faster cutting on say a GS-24 than on the BN-20. One reason would be to keep the printer printing and have the other machine cutting at the same time. Also great for if you're laminating your stickers which requires a cure time before doing so, once laminated you can just run it through the GS-24 quickly.

    • @StahlsTV
      @StahlsTV  7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hello,
      The BN-20 is one of the slower print/cut systems. By using the crop marks to print the image on the BN-20 and then having a faster machine cut the design, you can save a lot of time in your production process.

  • @pharbath

    how do the t-shirts hold up compared to inkjet paper on the bn-20. Also the feel compared to dark inkjet transfer? thanks.
    I recently watched a video complaining the eco solvent ink washes out rather quickly. however the online demos suggests it lasts very long.

    • @StahlsTV
      @StahlsTV  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Hector - while both of these cutters can cut the design, the BN20 is much slower. So for better production efficiency, you could be printing on the BN20 with one design, and cutting another out on the standard vinyl cutter.

    • @StahlsTV
      @StahlsTV  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Another tip - some materials take time to gas out the ink after printing and before cutting. Adding crop marks allows you to remove the material from the machine to gas out and keep printing more jobs.

    • @StahlsTV
      @StahlsTV  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +Tommy Durant Hi Tommy- Some decorators prefer to have a separate cutter with their solvent printer or print and cut system for speed of production. The BN-20 model specifically has a slower print/cut head than the Roland Versacamm or other vinyl cutter that cut up to 50 cm/s. For this reason, some decorators may choose to keep their printer printing and switch over to the cutter for faster production in cutting.

      One reason why I decided against a print and cut setup. I rather have my printer printing continuously than to use it for cutting while I have a backlog of print jobs waiting in line. I have a larger setup in the EJ-640 & GR-640 for this reason. And what if you need lamination? You would still have to remove the print, laminate...put in back into and cut again.

    • @sexymonkey4979

    • @StahlsTV
      @StahlsTV  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      You could certainly complete all of this on the BN20 within Versaworks, however some like to cut on a separate machine and laminate in between for decals, floor graphics etc for extra outdoor durability. For apparel applications, there would be no reason to no print and cut on the same machine at once unless there is a dry time for the material being used before cutting.

      Yes in the context of this video it seems silly to just use the print+cut for printing. But consider someone who buys the BN20 as a starter system, then gets popular. He will quickly realize that adding just a $1500 cutter would massively increase workflow and let the superb BN20 print only (which is the slower process)
