  1. Advice for shop expansion

    Door size is another decision I've been going back and forth about. The smaller bay, which is about 35' deep in this sketch would mostly be smaller vehicles, other bay for large trucks and 54' trailers. Originally thought a smaller door for the smaller bay just because they are easier to open...
  2. Advice for shop expansion

    Finally got the building permit... Adding 80'x40x20' celling addition to our current 56'x36'x12' shop. We also have rented a 65'x25' bay next door for the last 13 years for larger vehicle installs, won't need to do that anymore. Addition will have 2 install bays, a lobby/reception area, room...

  4. Die cut decals

    We stopped with flexcut years ago too. But we run the blade out .5 - .75 turns and bump the pressure and only do 1 pass. Very clean cuts.
  5. Font ID Please

    Yes I always use whatthefont but it's mostly not accurate for obscure stuff like this. I don't even know if this one is a font. Ended up using smalts yesterday and modified it to get close.
  6. Font ID Please

    Anybody know this font?

    Grimco hooking it up overnighting an i1 basic pro3. Any tips on how to proceed once it arrives so I can get this job to print? After that I'll dive into making custom profiles, but for now, fixing my output to match the original vans is priority #1.

    2.5 hours from NYC, but they closed at 1pm today. I called them at noon, they had not options to overnight one to me. Had a buddy in the city run over to pick it up for me. He didn't make it until 1:05 and they were closed.. So no luck there.

    Do any stores carry x-rite's or another spectrometer? Can't really wait for one to be shipped.
  10. s80600 / onyx thrive 19 - color shift on reprint

    This is more helpful. So maybe the printer is not "delivering" the same as last week. But the spot colors printouts are the same.. so how could that be? That's what I don't get. And I really don't get how re calibrating would play into that case.

    This sounds exactly like what I'm looking at. What could cause that to these reprinted jobs but not to spot colors or other jobs?

    They were originally printed with perceptual I believe. Not at the computer now to check. Do you know what settings in onyx could possibly have changed the appearance of my pri nts so I can try that?
  13. s80600 / onyx thrive 19 - color shift on reprint

    My best guess, something along the lines of what David marshal said above. That rendering intent has somehow been changed? Or for some reason rip/printer deciding cut off an ink channel or processing the job differently or something? In onyx job editor, printer Media settings tab I've tried...

    I don't have onyx test prints to compare. But I have these spot color charts we printed about a month ago. I'm holding those up to what I printed 2 minutes ago. All of these spot colors, which are mostly pantones, look exactly the same to me.

    How does recalibrating the profile jive with spot colors printing correctly and onyx test prints printing correctly?
  16. s80600 / onyx thrive 19 - color shift on reprint

    Yes same roll of vinyl. Maybe an ink cart or 2 have been replaced (I don't personally run the printer) but always fresh oem ink.
  17. s80600 / onyx thrive 19 - color shift on reprint

    Thanks for explaining delta 3. I take it you are also suggesting to recalibrate the profile? Could you or someone explain how this could help? - I have a handful of manufacture profiles, they all (for the past 3 years with this printer/rip) print very similarly, some a little better than...
  18. s80600 / onyx thrive 19 - color shift on reprint

    Bottom decal was printed a couple weeks ago, top one just printed. They look the same. This is the best example that I have a control sample of on hand and is similar grays. So why would this print the same and the wrap differently? Same profile used.
  19. s80600 / onyx thrive 19 - color shift on reprint

    As to environments changing: -I assume (business owner here) a couple ink carts have been swapped out, but always fresh oem ink- and also spot colors/pantones print correctly still. -Same roll of vinyl being used as original 1 week old print - have also tried different vinyls and same results-...
