  1. How do you store / organize your overs?

    Seriously, you keeps 1's and 2's of extras? Give them to the customer. We'll print 1 of something, and give the customer more if there is extra space in the area. If it's small die cut stickers, and they want 100, but to fill up the row it's 120. they get 120 unless 1 or 2 get ruined.
  2. Does anyone here run Linux with use of the Adobe Suite?

    oh trust me, there's no alternatives for some of the stuff that are just win and mac drivers :( I actively look. - I do have multiple ubuntu desktop VMs just to test things out. Apart from using Caldera, my other hardware wont work. E.g All my Barberi equipment. Enfocus pitstop pro, pitstop...
  3. Running a print/design shop on Linux

    This to me has always been a neat idea. And as there has been some topics on it lately, i'd love to compile a list of useful software one could use to run a small Print / Design shop. Email Client: -Thunderbird - has come a long way Word processing: - LibreOffice Design software: (Raster) -...
  4. Does anyone here run Linux with use of the Adobe Suite?

    I did mean Windows & Mac, i forgot to add that :p It really does depend on the shop size, software you run, hardware etc. I tried to entertain running stuff on ubuntu. it was just pointless. I even tried to put my laptop on ubuntu. so much software i depend on needs windows. and it's a hard...
  5. Does anyone here run Linux with use of the Adobe Suite?

    To use Linux to run 90% of printing & designing software, you're going to have a hard time. I've been down there and tried it. Adobe is windows only. Using Wine or a VM inside linux will be useless and not optimised. Now this is what i'd do.. format the machine. and install Proxmox. -...
  6. Software business management

    Welcome fellow Aussie :D Trying to gauge what you're after. Sounds like you're looking for an all in 1 solution? production system, invoicing, etc? or want to have seperate software for each that can talk to eachother? Are you taking orders from an ecommerce site? or all email?
  7. Onyx 22 / Thrive wont auto rotate when nesting?

    Pretty sure this is a bug with onyx 22 or 22.5. Because i have the same issue. just need to manually rotate the jobs. annoying but the way onyx goes about their updates. i wouldn't hold my breath of it getting fixed till x24. (which is suppose to be a sizable update)
  8. Arizona OCE 1280xt (Spot1)

    It's usually because the white is only calibrated to some extent, and not the same as CMYK. print a circle and a square. 50mm x 50mm or near. put a white Spot1 to print under it. either use a vector or do it in illustrator. See if the white bleeds.
  9. Arizona OCE 1280xt (Spot1)

    Under stepping. not much adjustment to fix that other than a head alignment.
  10. Digitech and colex conveyor system

    Nice to haves rather than a need to have. If your summa isn't bottlenecked, there's no real point in upgrading. save your money. focus on removing bottlenecks rather than buying stuff :p
  11. Digitech and colex conveyor system

    What aspect are you looking to upgrade? Most flatbed cutters do the same job. only difference is how it interacts with the tools, and the router of course. I've seen the summa, went for an all day demo. But i bought the colex. Summa has some nice to haves like when putting tools in, it...
  12. Digitech and colex conveyor system

    I would probably for the board feeder instead. - more flexibility.
  13. What grommet press does everyone use now?

    Better than the metal ones. No rust. And you can recycle the banner with the plastic grommets. Have to remove the metal ones to recycle the banner. They also look better
  14. What grommet press does everyone use now?

    Anything from plastgrommet.
  15. Paint for glass

    Probably sometype of ceramic paint you bake on. Others won't last
  16. AI Website Design Capabilities

    there's heaps of sites now that'll create (mostly a static page) from prompts. They're ok. i haven't seen anything to blow my mind yet.
  17. Colorado or not

    Colorado lowesr isn't 10pl ?
  18. Colorado or not

    I have learnt that dot placement is far more important than size. I have seen printers with smaller PL droplets print less accurate then printers with larger PL droplets.
  19. Colorado or not

    The colorado are in their own class. HP latex 800 will get you close. but not near enough.
  20. UV Printing on Glass Being Installed in a Bathroom

    It's splashback 2pack paint.
