  1. Print & Cut On Neon Green Vinyl

    on my CJV 30 I place some white squares out of scrap vinyl around the registration marks, it always works. It is not necessary for other neon colours. On reflective, I simply place some etch glass vinyl above registration marks.
  2. Client Provided Files

    I agree, but it's the only choice that I have when I am in this situation. I don't have acrobat pro to try transparency flattening and print files usually come too late to ask the customer to provide modified ones. I export without compression to limit loss of quality.
  3. Client Provided Files

    hello, it happens to me the same with my CJV30 and Rasterlink for years. Of course, it happens more at the end of a print than at the beginning :frustrated:. I have this problem only with customer-provided PDF files that includes transparency. When it happens, I export to jpg and reprint. :banghead:
  4. Whats your favorite weeding tool?

    After having tried a lot of tools (Xacto knife, tweezers...) I weed everything except flex/flock with the 3M Air Release tool but it is so expensive (and hard to find at supplier here in Europe)! For flex/flock I use this kind:
  5. Oratape LT95

    maybe too much tension/pressure when applying the tape? Are you applying the tape manually or with a laminator?
  6. Print, Laminate, Cut Tips & Tricks

    same behavior here: since I installed a LED lighting, the cut is much more precise and repeatable as before.
  7. New Logo ideas!

    Pat: what's the font name on the picture with 3 logo variants?
  8. Having problems printing on Oralite 5600 Reflective

    Hello, I had the problem when printing onto Oralite 5300 (not described as printable vinyl but is OK with my Mimaki). It only appears on the first 2 meters of my 50m roll then this problem disappears. I think that the surface of the vinyl is getting altered by time and air. I don't know if it...
  9. Out with the old . . . in with the new

    hello very nice result. Could you please name the fonts you used? Thanks in advance.
  10. Brand names & logos

    B or not B, you will need A anyways... even if you buy from someone who is licensed to sell a brand/logo decal, this does not mean that you are automatically allowed to sell the product with that brand/logo.
  11. Is there a trick to getting Soljets print all panels the same length?

    DPF8000 shrinks a lot and differently depending on heat and ink coverage. That's the reason why you don't get the same panel size, it's due to the vinyl, not your printer settings.
  12. [ CJV30] Print > Laminate > Cut ??

    the best you can do to thank everyone is to tell what was wrong and how you solved it :wink:
  13. [ CJV30] Print > Laminate > Cut ??

    In finecut, you should select BOTH cut layer AND register rmark layer. Have you done this? Or did you only select the cut layer?
  14. Roland giving some money back ?

    I did not see in your posts, how much far away is the cut from where it should be?
  15. How much time do you estimate for employee to hem & grommet 15 banners?

    I think your worker took his time but I don't see the amount of time he needed too much. Next time: look at how he does and tell/show him how he could go faster, much more appreciated and understood by the worker than just telling him that he is too slow.
