What you guys using to print the black one?  Lots of trouble for me, but tons of requests for them.

we use poly white, with lower meshes, and typically with lower pressure. Alan had posted about it in a thread i had mentioned a while back.

Yup.  Performance White on kelly, black, etc.   We'll print it through a 270 where needed but that's a lot of screens or revolves.  Boo.

Regular plasti is fine on the lighter tones so far.  Printing a grip of these lately it seems like.

Funny you mention, we have a huge run of these in Pink to run next week, and we asked tech support the same question.  I was going to run one off with a low bleed base and see if it has issues before running the full job.

Pink doesn't bleed with Quick. We're on our second thousand piece run of them.

They resist tack though, and I hate them.

We print them everyday, and they resist tack like a mofo! I HATE THEM.  But any white we use seems to fail.  They are so thin you cant really prints UB grey or whatever.
