Welcome back!

I have an Epson 70675 for sale at a great price right now. Trying to make room in the shop. PM me if you're interested, we are located near Cincinnati, OH.

You could make these with a Gerber Edge. Reverse print on polycarbonate (LexEdge material). Color then a white flood print, then you "laminate" the adhesive (3M 467/468) onto the rear and plot them. We make a lot of similar decals for the government and specialty industries.

Are you sure that the graphic doesn't have a random point floating around somewhere else off the canvas or wherever making the size larger than it should be? Adjust the spacing between prints maybe?

There's not much value at all to older machines, especially to anything approaching 10 years old. There's not much manufacturer support (drivers), tech support, or parts/ink availability for many of them, and those that still have it will be phased out over the next few years. Really it is best...

I cannot speak for the R-series, but our S-series printers have a great material feed calibration tool built into them. I'm assuming the R-series is the same.

I would not be concerned about the material itself shrinking, most of those materials offer zero stretch. However, I would be very concerned about the ability of the latex to achieve constant material feed between panels. I have heard of many times where the size of the panel varies from the...

This is an OLD thread, tech has came a long way in the past few years. FWIW.

We have that same exact issue on one of the older (Windows 7) computers in the office here, thankfully they only use Acrobat. I tried uninstalling it thinking the install was corrupt, but then they couldn't log in/download the app installer again. We just replaced the computer at the end of...

Print the stripe over size, and lay down some knifeless tape first along the correct size. Then you should be able to work the stripe in without stretching it and still have good straight lines.

Seriously, we've had rolls on order for months now. You might want to look for alternative materials that will work for what you're doing.

Body shops use a very similar, but blue, tape. fine line or pinstriping tape.

When I need a product that I can't find through the normal vendors I always call Trigon Imaging. I am not sure where you're located though, so it may not be an option.

This is a template for a Renegade by Rance Enclosed Car Trailer. 10% Scale. It really does get shorter in the front.

1st get a Pantone Color Bridge swatch book. That shows you and the client the difference between a true spot color ink and what the closest a CMYK-based printer can achieve. That sets everyone's expectations. Then find or make your own Pantone color chart in your standard application, using...

I have also had what you think would be an insignificant spec of crud on a gear lock a motor up. The tolerances on these machines are so tight that something like this can cause it to not perform correctly.

Sounds like your motor is bad if I am reading this correctly. When they go bad they lock up when powered up. (If I remember correctly)

We use the green 3M tape here, from Uline, no idea on the cost difference though.

Call Trigon Imaging, they can get your rolls slit to width. I'm assuming you're in the USA?

We have used 3M IJ680CR-10 for many many years and if you are careful you can apply it like a wrap in most cases. We purchased a roll of 3M IJ 780 and had a LOT of issues with edges lifting and peeling. 3M ended up giving us a refund for the roll and we have stuck with the 680 ever since.
