Started last week...this moaning sound. If I push in on the turning knob it stops, but the moment I release it the sound starts again. It sounds like its a bit loose to the takeup roll but if you increase the pressure it gets louder and if you reduce it to go away it stops winding the vinyl...

OK someone has to explain this to me. I am printing a load chart for a customer. Pretty detailed and it was completely redrawn in illustrator. Basically it is all black and white with one area of the chart that is in red with white knockout. I actually sent it out as bitmap so there would be...

I find it strange that I have a job with this spec. These are numbers that are applied to street lamps in a park. I have no issue with using the material and have it in stock for the real purposes of cutting very small logos and copy for weeding purposes. Why would scotchcal 220 or a regular 3M...

This absolutely drives me crazy. usually before I send a print cut job, I go to view the contour cuts to make sure they are there...so today I have 6 different decals..the shapes are identical just the info inside changes and I have them all set up before ready to print. I decide to view the...

I have seen this before but can't figure out why I can't send one image at a time? I even tried marquing the pic but it sends all 3. Decided to delete the other 2 and then bring them back later to print. What causes this?

Everytime I try to import a tif file into Signlab 8 the program shuts down How on earth do you fix something like that? and what could possibly cause such a thing?

I have looked everywhere and probably don't know what it is called but how do you just have a blank screen with no sign blank?

In the past I found that trying to print on paper costs more than printing on vinyl, and I find that my solvent printer, prints better on vinyl. I usually use that but what if someone wants paper. Where are you sorcing it from?

Is there any way to recover a deleted program manager file if deleted accidentley?

I have used Flexi long enough that I would think I would have saw this before. I ran 250 odd decals and I fill the cutting area fully. when the printer finished it changed the layout and left one row with 6 or so not printed, yet they were all there. I can't think of a reason why it did this...

.As discussed in a previous thread I need to print a logo with one line of copy that is very small and more than likely to be a real pain to weed. I want to give my customer a premium vinyl and laminate as they are going on their vehicles. I started printing this morning on 220 white and had...

I have a good customer who has just changed their logo. It is 4 separate spot colours and needs to be digitally printed and die cut as they want no white background. Thats fine by me, but there is a line of copy in a block font ( thankfully) along the bottom that is very small. .29 of an inch...

There might be a product designed for this but small orders will not get me to buy a full roll so what do you think of using a high adhesive vinyl with a floor lam? From what I see from my personal shopping or going to banks that people are using duct tape or other non floor designed...

Anybody here running a Summa cutter off of Flexi using a Mimaki printer? I'm at my wits end... I need to find someone with this setup to figure out why my cutter has so many issues finding registration marks....anybody?

It started about 2 weeks ago and every morning when opening Flexi it is in this Aspire work space. I don't even know what Aspire is!!!. I switch it back to default and then I have to reload the tool bars I want. The next day it's back at Aspire. I callled Flexi and the answer is that it...

WTF is wrong with this software. I have been screwed by eps files created from cdl files. I now have to re import them to check and everytime there are dotted lines indicating open shapes. Is there a fix for this. I almost had 100 screen printed signs ruined because of this issue.

I did receive a notification from SAI that there was an update and I updated. It gave me a code to input before it installed and I think it all went fine. Since then, every day I start up the software I get the same message that there is an update. Now I am wondering if it did anything at all...

We all know the answer to that but should they considering what is going on?

Yea stupid me... Multi tasking today and got an email from a client with an attachment in the text area of the mail. Like a dummy I clicked on it and I can tell something happened. I then realized what I had just done and ran ccleaner and then Super spyware and then Microsoft security...

How frustrating is that? I badged a bunch of stuff and when I was manipulating them to set up for cutting all of a sudden certain parts just disapeared. Edit undo did not bring them back and had to start all over again... I have seen this happening with the outline tool as well at times...
