I don't know if that option would work properly on a print and cut file...the weed border adds .1 or whatever is set around the graphic.... Would not the plotter incorperate that extra measurement when cutting and mis cut the file?

It can be a real beatch to get off the backing paper...in fact after it has been cut, if they sit too long you can virtually peel the premask off and not pull a single letter with it. You need to use high tac premask and if you have issues removing it I found if you put it in the freezer for 30...

I know in Signlab even if you have the fonts loaded in windows, that you still need to install them in Signlab. I was just looking at my Flexi 21 but don't see anywhere to load fonts....how about putting the fonts in the same directory as the ones Flexi takes them from?

These days a lot of companies lease their vehicles, so cast as far as lettering is not really needed. Printing is a whole other ball game

Thank you

This is not my problem but a friends who just bought his first printer. I am called to help him through issues. I found more than a few times while trying to send out jobs for print and jobs for cutting that the info never leaves the computer. Both machines are hooked up via USB. I found...

Last week I needed a roll of banner tape that I used to pay $19.00 for 1" 36 yards, Now $29.00 52% increase

also if you use Flexi there is only 1 profile available.

Flexi technical rep says that they do not make profiles and that they are made for them by the vinyl manufacturers. Not sure if that is factual.

Is it a new printer form Mimaki? I ask as my screen printer bought the new jv100 and there is only 1 profile for Flexi, which I found disturbing.

Does it do it if the material is latched up?

Rasterlink only works if you have a Mimkai cutter, or you can use it for print only.

Why did Mimaki decide to do this? If it were me, I never would have bought the printer based on having to weigh the ink.. whats wrong with cartridges? I don't get it

Question about the cartridges on this new machine. Last week turned the printer on and it keeps showing an illustration of an ink cartridge in the info screen and you can't do anything until this problem is addressed. It seems like it wants the ink changed yet there is easily at least a third...

You know you could try printing a test using no color profiles...

Have you run the test prints on the printer. Maybe some nozzles are blocked

The image is pretty low res and I broke the masks down so that I could print one line of them for you. Not sure what colour it should be but it sort of has a goldy brown look. File attached

Yes, I use the profiles that Flexi has and there are quite a few. I generally use the Oracal 651 profile but print on General Formulations for the most part. When it comes to bitmaps I really don't adjust anything...they seem OK but if customers get picky I could see where there could be an issue.

I run a jv150 using Jetbest inks and have no problems matching colours up to pantones using the Onyx colour chart someone posted a while back. I don't run Rasterlink though and use Flexi.

The Edge always prints well with 2ml 3M white. Drop outs sometimes can actually be the vinyl itself, with very small indentations that stop the foil from bonding. Someone once on here suggested to put a 1" bar of the first colour being printed at the front of the print which gives the heads...
