  1. Gs6000 Printhead Clean Or Replace?

    We recently had our drive belt break. You know the silver metal one that moves the head back and forth! Well it took about 1 1/2 weeks to get. Installed the new belt and our black would not print. Tried cleanings, cleaning cartridges no luck. Ended up putting in a new head. I'd say call...

    Oracal 751 is a Cast PVC film and should be post heated when stretched over rivets and the like. You must obtain appropriate heat level to break the memory of the chemical bonds of the PVC. This is usually around 220-230 degrees based on the various types of films out there. If you are...
  5. Onyx Production House 12.05 Unable to RIP PDFs

    I think Ian is on the right track. Onyx changed to an Adobe based RIP. Therefore you should make sure you are no longer using JAWS. ***NOTE*** You will most likely see a difference in color from the JAWS vs. ADOBE ripped files. We did!

  13. E450 Passenger Van wrap Help

    Sides are easy. The cab is normal. The most complicated is the area above the cab, of course. Do this in sections with 1/4" overlaps. Knifeless tape will work great. I wrapped this a few months back. Give me a call if you would like to discuss how I did the install. 262.548.0055

  17. Question Install on Gas Pumps

    I'd figure 2 hours per pump if you are familiar with this type of install. Then state on your quote that install time is an estimated amount of time and will be billed accordingly. This way you are covered if it takes you longer than the time you estimate. Once you have done 2 or 3 you should...
