Have a PC-60 I want to sell. I doubt I ever ran 10 yrds of material from this machine since the day I bought it.

I never did figure out how to eliminate the banding and ribbons snapping on me.

I don't do well with things that require more work than I have patience.

Thanks if anyone has an idea what a fair price would be to get for it.

do you use roland ribbons
because i never have any banding or snapping or shrinking with them
banding is the problem of a refill ribbon

three things you can do to eliminate banding:
1. Turn on the machine at least 20 min. prior to printing.
2. Clean the vinyl with isopryl alcohol, then make sure it's warmed up.
3. Cover the machine when not in use, and always use the cleaning pen immediately AFTER printing.

I get great results using MacTac 9800 vinyl.

I sold a PC60 on ebay and it went for $1825. That
was with the print head bad. I was almost as
glad to see it go as I was my ex-wife. Both were
a general pain in the posterior. Then bought an
Edge....nuff said.
