How men and women record things in their diaries...... ------Wife's Diary: Tonight, I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a nice restaurant for dinner. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but...

My Summa d-140 can be a very finicky piece of equipment. It cuts great and as a plotter is good. The opus reader has been a thorn in my side for over 6 years. I have tried many cures but there always seems to be a job 2 or 3 times a week that frustrates the &^%^ out of me with the reader...

How do I command my jv3 130spII to just run the wiper sequence of cleaning the heads?

Man I am so frustrated.... Doing a pickup truck for a regular customer and we have done these on about 8 or 9 vehicles over the last 3 or 4 years but now FORD has got lots of indentations running on the wheel wells and lower sections of the truck, which makes applying thick curved 2ml striping a...

Jv3 130 spII - I usually see this issue with the yellow head and a good nozzle wash seems to clean it out. Yesterday I remembered that last Friday I did not perform my weekly nozzle wash so decided to do it yesterday. I ran it for an hour. I did print yesterday with no issues with any of the...

Needed a red decal with yellow copy. Turned color correction off made my yellow 100% yellow and the red 100% yellow and magenta, and it printed the best red I have ever seen out of this printer......yeee hawwww.

In the past before I owned a digital printer I would have car decals done by my screen printer. I know they use sheeted vinyl and I also know that it was calendered with no laminate. They could last quite a long time 5 years plus with little deterioration of the vinyl itself. I can't say that...

I posted this here as I am not sure if it is software related or just bad files. I can view the file if I double click on it from the desktop, but if I try and import it into Signlab, the program shuts down immediately. I have seen this before. i tried opening it in Flexi and I get an error...

I have 14 48" x 76" alumapanel boards with digital print and Paper holders attached. Before i took the job on I told the American customer that I could not ship these as the cost using UPS or Purolator would be enormous and they would be damaged in shipping. They said they have a sister company...

I had a customer who wanted a feather outdoor banner and I had it done by a local supplier. We were printing a solid black with minimal white knowckouts. The banner and hardware arrived and I opened it up to check it out and I can only describe the colour black as a form of light navy blue...

I have printed a few sign faces for other sign shops in the past and have always done the double hit on clear, and honestly never had a complaint...until I did 11 for me. The complainent is me..... Basically there were 11 faces 2 x 10 and they repeated with 2 different layouts. Before I did...

I am making indoor info boards for a large corporation that has many divisions. They have asked me to supply 48" x 72" display boards, which are basically composite aluminum with a digital print and plexi paper holders attached. They want to know if i can also make them free standing for...

From what I am led to believe is that 1080 vinyl has a built in laminate.....why? I was under the impression that 3m 2ml vinyls were good for 8 years outdoors...so just what is the laminate for on a solid colour?

OK you Flexi gurus. I need to know how this happens every so often. I send an eps file with a hairline stroke, which is my cutline from Signlab to Flexi. I import the file into Flexi, ungroup the file and make my colour changes to the print. I click on the hairline and change it to a contour...

To make a long story short...the customer screwed up and now I have to save his azz so I can continue to do work for this very large customer. I have petG paper holders on an info board and I need to take them off as the double sided tape is to wide and making slipping paper in to hard. I...

Thanks to the member that showed that you can cut alaumapanel with a heavy duty knife and snap it....what a time saver and love the fact that the shop floor stays a lot cleaner without all the black inners from the alumapanel tracking around everywhere. So now , I was just wondering how many of...

I have no idea what the black stuff is or how it gets on the rollers, but it is driving me crazy in the way that sometimes it happens and other times it does not. I tried cleaning with alcohol, but no effect. Any ideas on what causes this and how to remove it? cleaning fluid? or will that...

I have a d140 and use a Mimaki printer. One of the most frustrating issues I have had over the years is that the opus reader has trouble detecting the little squares. I have found that certain laminates really need to be worked to get a good read. By worked, I have found that rubbing the squares...
