Hi Guys, Don't forget about us. Visit our web site. www.smtech.com for info on printers that compete with DEK and MPM and are newly designed. Contact me via email or give me a call to discuss what it is about screen printing (not stencil printing?

Hi everyone, I am looking for positive and negative feedback on the use of the paste dispensing system on MPM screen printers. We currently have four machines with this capability that we do not use. Our printer operators insist that the dispensing s

Well, the monitor isn't touch screen. The light pen IS the mouse/trackball. If I touch the screen nothing happens. The industrial PC has no PS/2 ports of any kind on it. Perhaps I could splice into the light pen connections and connect a standard tra

Yes, I tried to clean it, but the pen is just messed up. Somebody broke part of the tip off and that is the cause of the screw up. The pen works, but it is very picky about what parts of the screen it likes and doesnt like. I was just tired of playin

We got it working; We replaced the old video card with an older ISA video card to get the display to work. Then we removed the ELO touchpanel ISA card, which cleared an IRQ conflict with the mouse on COM 1. Running mouse drivers AND VGASPM.EXE fro

Harry- That's true but we weren't hear to discuss what's the cheapest printer around. The guy wants to step up in technology without jumping into the Mercedes-Benz of printing. In my mind any MPM printer below a UP-2000 would not serve his purpose.

I have an MPM SPM and two Ekra E4 screen printers. I have always run them dry with vacuum. I am also using no-clean paste and have not had a problem. The volume I run per day on the machines is 4 - 6,000 bds

If you are happy with DEK I would stick with that. I'd look at an ELA or a Horizon model 03...which is their stripped down Horizon version. You can buy a new one of those in the $60K range...used obviously less. The only other vendor I would look a
