Hi! My name is Benoit (or just ''Ben''). I'm in Montreal, Canada.
I'm in business for about 1 1/2 year now and I'm looking for a cheap but good cutter/pinter. I will use it for small decals like bumper stickers (max of 4-5 colors) and probably t-shirts too. If possible, I would like to print pictures on t-shirts.
There is someone here selling a Roland pnc-5000 for 800$, but I did not have any answer form him. I can have also a pc-50 for around 700$-800$.
I don't know alot for those products, so I need your help and/or advise.
Thanks for your help!

Ben, Your asking for nothing but trouble. If you get any printer/cutter, there is enough headaches and frustration involved with the "learning curve". If you buy a used one that won't print properly, its double frustration. At least buy one that has been rebuilt or at least a new print head. You might want to look a little further than just Tee shirts and small stickers. Those customers are a pain in the a$$. Have fun John Arnott

What do you think? Do you suggest to forget the idea of purchassing a printer/cutter?

I would wait. And, spend some more time learning how to do sign panels. Real panels. I would take that time while learning how to make real sign panels and save up some more money to get an up todate machine and do up todate work.
Thats a lot of money for a machine that old.

ok, thank you. I'll do what you said. So, it will be better to do my works by another sign shop I gest.
