  1. Help Needed - Ancient Cutter

    Vista was and still is a problem. I have just sorted something similair for an old friend but we had to get a machine running XP before it would work! My advice and maybe it's the sensible option is switch back to XP unless you want to start writing your own driver for it?!! I wouldn't be to...
  2. What Would You Do?

    I've been int his business for 26 years now! I started with one of the biggest sign shops in our area as an engraver and profiller. I got p****d when this company got greedy after I had managed to be running 3 machines non stop all day long and were still wanting to know what I was doing every...

  5. recommendation needed for new laptop

    I have just binned my girlfriends laptop after two and a half years of use! Annoying as it cost over £600. It will cost more to repair than it's worth (motherboard fault)!!! On picking it up from the service guy he reckoned laptops last between 2-3 years then something goes seriously wrong. He...
  6. What a way to start off the week *RANT*

    I thought Coro and Black Vinyl is fairly standard stuff to have in stock as a signmaker?! The 2 weeks before Christmas I have an excess of "want it now customers" I would get used to it! SC
  7. Signlab 9.0!!!!!!

    I looked at Signlab 8 when it first came out but couldn't see any difference either. I have been given a good offer to upgrade our 3 copies of 7.1 but I will not be using Signlabs RIP so it seems like money wasted. SC
  8. Signlab 9.0!!!!!!

    So if like me you aren't using Signlabs RIP it isn't worth the upgrade!!!!!! I truly was hoping for something new. Maybe I was hoping they had tidied up the rough way Signlab renders to the screen. I may spend the money on Corel or something similair. SC
  9. Signlab 9.0!!!!!!

    I have just noticed Signlab 9.0 has been released. We are still on version 7.0!!!! And so far I have only ever upgraded every other version so is it time to change? I learned a long time ago Signlab was way too complicated as a RIP so I don't want it for that I will be using it as a design...
  10. Solvent vs Eco Solvent Ink

    Yes we all love our own printers and yes a full solvent printer should last way longer then an ecosol. I used his machines when they were brand new so it should be no heater issues. He was using original inks and printing onto 3M materials. So Inks and materials are not an issue. We had issues...
  11. initializing ULTIMA 1400 d

    How and why were you updating the ultima? We have one but I didn't know their was a firmware update. SC
  12. Solvent vs Eco Solvent Ink

    I used my friends JV3 and JV33 for a while and unlaminated prints wouldn't last any longer than 1 year if they were looked after! My Mutoh Valuejet prints last a whole lot longer than that you could probably get 3 years if looked after properly. I guess anyone who has a solvent or ecosol printer...
  13. Printing not right with picture

    That looks like no test print i've ever seen! Do a proper nozzle check print and post it on here. What overall condition is the machine? SC
  14. ghost removal?

    We were supplied some Ghost-Off by one of our suppliers to try. It nearly ended in disaster. A virtually brand new Nissan Navara demonstrator after removing the graphics leaving a ghost image and using Ghost-Off the paintwork went soft and took over a week to settle. This nearly cost me a...

  17. enlarging powerpoint file?

    Well I had a customer send me a publisher file yesterday lunch time. The annoying thing is that I had already told him I would not take artwork from any of microsoft office programmes. I called him and he said "Publisher isn't an office programme"!!!!! Now if my memory serves me it is and if you...
  18. enlarging powerpoint file?

    Tell the customer you will have to reproduce the artwork of which their is a fee. We get this loads and have found the products in the microsoft are used as a design tool in offices. The office staff even think it is a proper design programme! The artwork and reproduction qualty is pathetic and...

    I am all profilled out!!!!! I am not willing to adjust the profiles anymore as you get one colour correct and another has changed! It is like digging a hole in sand! My profile is as good as it gets on a CMYK machine!!!! I still would like to print 031 red though! SC
