Size Does Matter! “ As usual, we were running a job with our standard “Y” strainer-filter vessel. And as usual, we still had lots of streaks and other print defects. When we stopped mid-run to change a damaged blade, someone suggested we put the just arrived QUBE FILTER on behind our existing filter. It was amazing. Our defects disappeared. The QUBE removed all of those problem-causing particulate that just sailed through our old filters. So if you’re tired of struggling with a filter that doesn’t do the job, solve your problem once and for all with the NEW LARGE CAPACITY G2 QUBE 3.0…its big enough to do the job.” North American Wide Web Printer no risk trial info contact: [email protected]
