Hello everyone,

I wanted to know if anyone has ever used or heard of this 4 station 4 color press?

I started off with a Silverpress 1station 1color and found I had a larger customer base if I did multi color prints.

Funds were not readily availabe so I purchased this press. Not sure if I did the right thing.... should have waited and saved until i could get a Ranar, vastex or Riley!!!

There is another thread on the forum discussing this brand of press. They're apparently Chinese in origin, and basically bolted-together from many pieces. The biggest complaint noted was the flex in the platen arm.
While it's too late, whenever one decides to buy a press, a search for reviews is a must. In this case, the press was so inexpensive it should've been a hint that it wasn't a bargain. An older Hopkins International could probably be found for the same price, maybe less, and you'd have a very serviceable press.

There has been many threads discussed here about ACS and Miami Screen supply. Basically one of the same. There are a few threads about fixes. Maybe you can at least fix it enough to make some funds to replace. Just do a search for ACS fix Good luck.

You're talking a big difference in price and features, a $300 press vs. $2000+ presses. Maybe you should have waited but if you don't have the money, you don't have it. In the meantime use what you do have to earn the money towards an upgrade.
