Just bought an Alps MD 5000

Just bought a used one that I will now use to make decals. Hope it is worth the 200 bucks. I always like to have extras for the whoops, made a mistake scenariro.

Nice Printer I got one myself.

Make sure you get the compatible Decal sheets for it though., if you can’t find them I know a source online.

Also you can now do your own Iron-on transfers.

Here is a site address that you may want to have for national markings…

Here are a few points I like about the printer:

1,) No more worries about the jets being clogged, ink drying out, etc.
I can switch it on after 1 yr of non-use and it will just print happily.

2.) If you run out of a colour the print process stops and you are asked to replace the spend cartridge after which th printing process resume.
No wasted prints due to ink shortage. The driver will show you how much ribbon(%) is left on each cartidge, so you can stock up in time.

3.) Iron-on transfers.

4.) Metallic colours and white can be printed.
