If you have white ink printing on metallic vinyl is a good option, you can put white behind anything you don't want to be metallic and it'll make it opaque. Rtape has a few different metallic option

Really feeling it tonight! I have 950" of Decals to print... 15 different decals, between 50-100 of each. Cant just tell it to print 8 FT sheets and hit print... Nope... have to split the 15 files up into 8 FT at a time... and hit print once by one. So now My printers heaters are turning...

Don't you have a server? The dongle doesnt need to be on a computer with the software running... You could put it on a server, or just plug it into a cheap $50 computer and keep it on all the time. The new thrive is now dongleless... it's nice as you dont have to worry about that issue (I...

I don't believe onyx go allows this... You'll need a perpetual license on onyx thrive. Onyx thrive gives you 4 rips... you can limit it to 2, and then install it on 2 computers, so each computer has "2 rips at once" kind of. Thats over simplifying it... but Thrive allows it, and go /...

You guys are very picky with logos. It's a lawn sign company... Not a graphic design company, their moto is "I want your grass"... Do you expect picasso level artwork? :roflmao: I don't think a logo has to be perfect...especially if its for some small business, but the artwork is stolen...

Since we're fixing bugs... I've had a bug since onyx 22 thats still there in 24... On The Epson resin printer, if you load a media and then click get media info / size, onyx will crash. Then when you re-open it... itll get it perfectly fine without crashing. Happens every single media load...

It's not the submit pages individually option, I have that one done and I never have an issue with it. Maybe if you don't have a check there's another issue though .. If you tell Onyx your page size is 54 inch by 12 in, then you print 310 in by 50-in tackles so it sends it as three different...

8048 isn't discontinued, it's just not a commonly stocked item... But Grimco can bring it in for you. I like the gloss level of 8048... Its glossier than 8508 is, And it has zero "slivering / Matting" on it. Theres a few people on here who use it exclusively with IJ35/40... Hundreds of rolls...

We hate 8508, even before the change... and Ive heard with the change its more of a matte as well, I expect 3M will see a drop in 8508 sales. IJ35 is a calander... why is grimco recommending a cast?! Wrapcast is nice, however I wouldn't use it on IJ35.... Or for realtor signs. Their...

Buy off AliExpress or eBay... Or Amazon. You can get the Chinese blades for under $1 on amazon... About 50 cents if you buy 100 + from AliExpress.... 75ish from eBay. They're cheap enough that buying from Amazon is 1/20 of the price, and you get them in a day vs waiting months from China directly.

Theres a guy who always goes to trade shows to sell his stuff. He asked me 2 weeks ago how long it'd take to get 2 banner stands, 2 banners, and 2 tabletop banner stands done... I told him I dont stock the table top, so it's 3-5 business days... if he confirms quantity I will order them in to...

I've run into this bug a few times too... kind of surprised they havent fixed it yet. I do A LOT of decals, And with a Latex printer its a pain in the ass having it print 4-6 FT, Stop...re-warm itself up, print 4-6 FT...stop...re-warm itself... etc, so "Print by job" doesn't work for me. I...

We've bought and installed them in a premium outlet shop - They hang in every stores windows... Theyre great. The wall ones are awesome, but I'd stay away from the floor ones... Half of the floor ones we installed are broken because they ram merchandise / displays into the windows... hit them...

You first job isn't translucent I hope.... Translucent printing is a different beast than printing regularly. Whiue IJ3630-20 is technically a permanent product... we use it all the time as a removable. We print dozens of small map pieces on acyrlic with it that get changed out everytime a...

Welcome from Langley BC !

A lot of people seem afraid to lose a customer.... If it's a huge customer, I get it. But even then... if the customer is always putting in rush's and slowing down your production for everyone else, you're pissing off other customers to meet this customers needs... stressing you, and your...

Adding a rush fee was the best thing we ever did for our shop. You wont make it rich, or even make a noticeable amount of money off of it... but as a byproduct of it... most peoples jobs that were rush, end up not being a rush anymore because people are cheap. We had one guy who was piss poor...

It's been a few years since I checked... but I was told China doesnt have any cast vinyl facilities, they only make calendared. I bought a roll of chinese carbon fiber to play with - It was so flimsy and brittle. I wrapped a helmet with it, and I wrapped a helmet with 3M Carbon... And the...

Ordering from China is easy. Ask your chinese vendor to give you pricing with DDP. DDP is delivered duty paid. They do all the customs and tax information for you... And will ship it to your door, vs having to pickup at the port. DDP shipping is going to be a lot more expensive...

It takes about 3 hours a roll on high quality - I print everything on 9 pass... so about 4, but you can do 6 pass with decent everything if you tweak the profiles and color calibrate the machine, then its 3 - , the default profiles suck below 9P though, reds are orange...everything looks muddy...
