Running onyx 10 on win 7 pro system, illy cs6. Have a simple vector based drawing and on the bottom layer I have the items I want printed in full colour (a blue and gray) and then on another layer ontop of the print layer I have one for the spot colour (white). Everything is as I would always do...

First of all, if this isn't the right thread for this post feel free to move it, I just couldn't find anything related to digital signage. Hey All, so this is a new thing for me, I've always seen it around but have never thought about it in depth. My father in law has a company with a digital...

Hi all, so normally we use 3m 8150 with 3m 8150 as a lam to achieve optically clear when requested. We've got a large job coming up that requires an optically clear vinyl but has no spec as to the material. Looking for some recommendations as to which vinyls/manufacturers have a good product at...

Ok so this is driving me bonkers! My trial of onyx 12 ended and im back to onyx 10 and ive run about 300ft of ij 36-20 And my sizes are not outputting correctly. After the file rips it shows the correct size in the que, but when it prints it shrinks the print to about 2 inches shorter. I have...

I'm trying to print 3 files on top of each other, which one would think would be easy; mark my starting points and start each file at that point (making sure offsets are the same each time) and hit print. But here's the kicker, for some reason the printer is starting the print approx. 1/8" over...

First, Not sure if this post should be in this thread or in the RIP threat, Fred feel free to move. I've got a supplied .TIFF file from a client that has a white fade to the top (in attached) to clear and I'm having issue's getting the white fade to print. The white fade is on its own...

I'm trying to print a decal that can be seen from both sides of the glass once installed. My process so far as been using 3m IJ8150, and in onyx x10 printer settings (using Epson s50670) going into the multiple layers and printing the first layer colour, then the next 3 flood white layers, then...

We change graphics for a very large client every quarter and the designer is wanting to do a fade to clear and not see any hard lines from the edge of the material. Currently we use 3M IJ36-20 to do the graphics as it comes in a 61.5" wide roll. From what I can find (3m, Avery, lintec, drytac)...

We've got a job coming up that requires floor graphics and our distributor has suggested to use 3M IJ162 as the base material but can't even get us a sample - will only sell us a full roll. I know I've seen everyone talks about the Oracal vinyls, so I'm wondering if someone would have a...

So I've got a chance to purchase a small 4 color screen printing kit and since I've never really dealt with screen prints before (only digital) so I'm wondering everyone's view on if it's worth getting into (side projects). It comes with everything in the photo (4 wooden screens, flash dryer...

We've got a very large project that we're printing a solid color red onto 3m IJ8150 and we're having some major issues. When it goes on the take up reel it sticks to the backer and leaves "matte" looking marks like tiger stripes. We've got the room temp at about 80-90F with fans blowing on the...

Does anyone know what product this is, what brand it is, or even a supplier of it? It's not a 3M fasara or Solyx or remlor product. Got a client who is wanting rolls upon rolls of this stuff but can only provide this photo. Chaz

I have a really tough time believing that a take up reel get disabled when trying to do multilayer printing. I've got a simple file (20 words) that the client wants to see color on both sides of a clear material but have the letters opaque. In theory printing with white in in a multilayer print...

We've had our printers for a couple years now and we have never printed onto perf. before. This is going on flat glass (store front) and other than printing like normal I don't really know anything I should be watching out for. Basically looking for any tips for printing on the perf. Printing...

This pattern, can anyone tell me if they've seen this before as a product that you can buy?? I swear I have seen this pattern before as a roll that you can buy but I can't find any samples of it anywhere. Chaz

So we have used Hexis frost (S5DEPM) before on numerous occasions and have found that its a decent material to work with and its fairly cheap, and is a close match to other frosted materials. My question arises now, does anyone have any experience with other Hexis vinyls and/or print media? Chaz

I've got an issue with my material sticking to itself on the takeup. I'm printing to 3m IJ8150, solid colour red 60" wide by 150ft rolls (that's the size of the print). I've tried playing around with the media feed speeds, heat settings, setting a delay in print (5 passes then 10 sec rest) and...

Okay so this is weird, not sure why its happening but it is. Have the print gutter completely turned off (no left or right selected - gutter size box is greyed out) but it still prints the gutter. I need to be printing the full width of my material but it keeps adding in the gutter. Does...

Hey all, I'm running into an issue I have never seen before. I have a file in illustrator (CS6) with the only colour being black @ %30, when I print the PDF and open in onyx (10.2.5) and preflight, under the color correction the colours show as using all CMYK. Is there a reason for this, or...

Okay, so we have rarely ever used window perf and going to be printing on it for the first time. My question lies in what lam I should be using with contravision 60/40 perf. Does it actually matter which lam. I used? My distributor is gearing me towards Avery DOL1560 or 3M 8914. I would have to...
