Re: Need opinions on Roland CJ-500 Here is an update. I just happened to get an ad from a local Roland dealer so I called them up and chatted for about an hour with them on this very printer. It does have a conversion kit for solvent inks that runs about $3K installed. The CJ was a good price but I was skeptical about the ability to do outdoor types of things so we passed on this one. So, it would have cost me about $9K to get it in order to run, a good bargain considering they run over $20K new but just not exactly what I wanted.
As far as the other one I planned on getting, the pc-600, the guy selling it stalled me for about a month. I decided not to buy it from him since he turned out to be a flake so here so I am back to square 1.
I will probably go out to our local vendor and see about a refurb. unit of the newer models to see if I can get a deal.
So, I am still looking..... |
