    Hi.
    My name is John and I am new to this forum and to the printing business. I was offered this printer at a very cheap price, I was told it was a generic Novajet 750 that came from china. There is a name on the front by the function panel that says
    (Times) and then 3 chinese characters. The printer has never been run except for just had one test print. It looks dirty on the photo but it is just the way the guy took them, it has been sitting there for quite a while. I was wondering if any of the members of this forum recognized this printer. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks.
    John

    Hi John, there are some similar machines listed on ebay as brand new from China and Hong Kong. They look like Novajets but I'm sure the 60" machines were only £999 but ebay "Large format printer" and see if they are similar.
    regards...

    So far as i know,if you can find similar printers like Roland,you can just follow its instructions as the one you got is just like Roland in working process.

    Is this printer the same as the novajet 750 with regard to the cartidges and other parts, is it just the disign which is different, and is the printter any good for what i intent to use it for. I have been using a novajet pro 60e but the cartidges are now difficult to find. I would appreciate any help from anyone who knows this printer. Thanks

    I am afraid the structures might be different no matter how close they are to each other.However,it's not a definite answer as even though in China,the printer you got is hard to find.Can anyone runs similar machine(no matter which brand) can help?

    Encad Novaajet Pro 60e Cartridges

    Failing to get any information on this printer, does anyone know of a supplier for the cartridges for my other printer which is an Encad Novajet Pro60e 60" printer. The cartridges are type 'A' 300 DPI, used on the pro 60e and the 500 I think. They seem to be in short supply. But really I do need help with the printer I have this post for. HELP PLEASE!!!!!
