    About to purchase a Latex machine, just wondering if anyone has production experience with both.

    the 25500 I have been offered is £3000 cheaper than the 26500.
    Are the improvements to the newer machine worth that amount?

    I have been given a demo on the 26500, impressive setup, like the fact of low maintenance. Anyone who owns a Mutoh knows what I mean

    Thanks in advance stephen

    banners is better on the l26500 or other solvents

    the l25500 is good for vinyl and fabrics/textures, it will do banner but it is not the best at it.

    l26500 has dancer bar take up system, redesigned, it also has better heat assembly.

    the maintenance is very low indeed, hardly anything.

    I agree with Dave, 25500 can be fussy with banners.

    Maintenance is almost nothing, very easy.

    We traded in our 25500 for a 26500 and the improvements are very good especially the new takeup system. The heating distribution is also a lot better wich is very important for latexprinters.
    My advice is to go with the 26500.

    By the way i´m new here and this was my first post so hello everybody!
