Then it sounds like something in your RIP has changed. Onyx can be a PITA every now and then.

So, this file always prints "incorrectly", but do the other files you've created using this same pattern also do this same thing now? One really weird thing I have to look out for in Illustrator is different color setting in documents/versions. Like you can open an older file, make changes...

photos posted, in case you wanted to see them

Not the best photos, but everything turned out awesome. We pin mounted the letters and welded the pins to rails (painted black). Hung the whole thing (around 2 pounds) by thin black wire off of 2 hooks at the top. We added adjustable legs to the back so that we could get it to sit flat with the...

For applying rolls of app tape to rolls of vinyl I really like the GBC Arctic Titan laminator. We have one that has done probably 50,000 rolls of mask. Really, any laminator works for this, but simpler actually is better for app tape.

We use GerberMask here since we always have it in stock. Some customer's walls are always painted poorly so be sure to use as low of tack vinyl as possible unless you want to deal with paint pulling off. We have our own router so we always make our own patterns for letters/studs.

Do an offset path to your original art of about 1/8". Then reverse cut and weed the letters out of cheap low tack vinyl. Apply that to the wall, install the letters and remove the template. Easy peasy.

What are you printing on it?

Removal is going to be its own project.Then, re-creation of something similar is going to be its own project. Making stripes similar and applying them shouldn't really be hard. Use a straight on photo and good measurements and it should go smoothly. Hints: make them at least 1" larger than...

Contact your vinyl distributor (Like Grimco/Fellers) and they should be able to tell you who your local 3M rep is. I've put IJ35c on a few cheaper customers' vehicles in the past without issues, not full wraps, but print/cut graphics.

Yes, you can just insert a cleaning cartridge into those slots. We've never needed the silver ink so we just keep a cleaning cart in its spot.

Does the Plotter Doctor work on them?

Shoot me a PM with a photo of the end product/adhesive setup. I'm not 100% with you on the "selective adhesive" product, but I think it wouldn't be that hard to figure out. I've got an idea how its done already but would have to see photos or a physical sample to be totally sure. We make a...

THANK YOU!

Any help with this one? Can't figure it out and the customer doesn't know.

Paint mask stencils and paint the logos on if he wants them to hold up over time. You could use a vinyl like Arlon DPF8000 and it might hold up but also might come off at a car wash.

BoldPact?

I have to agree with them. I've only seen a couple parts actually just break on a laminator after long term heavy use, otherwise every lamination issue always comes back to operator error. Some laminators are way over-complicated and some operators are way under-brained.

Did you read the replies above? The print heads are all 100% damaged and will NOT be repairable. They all need replaced and cost about $1000 each (around $5000 total), not counting labor. We had trouble selling the same machine (in better shape) for $1000 a couple years ago with all good...

Too much roller pressure is where I see this. Usually loosening the rollers to proper pressure fixes it.
