I just bought a wireless MS mouse 5000- I love it- 5 buttons and tilting scroll wheel. The tilt wheel function works great- the scroll (horizontal) direction is jet propelled- one click is about a yard. Reminds me of trying to squeeze off a single round on my machinepistol...

My SP300 came with 2 sets of media clamps- one longer pair that could not be used with the cutoff feature. My VP540 (I think) did not come with them- maybe the 54" printers with the hi/lo head height doesn't use them? I am printing some 36" perfed material that the head pulls up the edge of...

I tried WTFont but got nothing even close- maybe I need practice with that site. My daughter has been down with the flu all week and our other employee was out for 3 days- I am about dead. Thanks Gene

I have never had this particular problem before- printing a 4x12 banner with a light tan background and I get slightly darker streaks wherever the center rollers are. I ended up taking the rollers out and had no problems with the 12 foot long print- do you all use the rollers? I don't with...

I started to try to modify a Roland RIPC profile to play nice with my Triangle Ink set last spring- but haven't had time to spend since then. Has anyone else had any success with this approach? I am not sure if the RIPC profiles have something related to RIPC in them or it was the firmware...

I posted on Rolands site in Feb about 3.1.1 crashing- now 3.1.2 still crashes, do they have anyone who cares? Gene

I have several blade holders for my Edge and a couple for my VP- I like to dial in a blade for a material and be able to leave it alone. Anyway- just realized that the Edge blade holder will fit the Roland, altho I had to make a spacer out of a washer (about 1/16") to correct the headspace...

Is anyone else finding that Gerber 220 is not clean anymore? New rolls- in the plastic are dirty and don't print nice. Talking Edge prints of course.

Whenever I make a selection on a bitmap- the selection comes back every time I touch it- is there a way to release it... forever? Fpro 7.6 BTW

I am setting up a new main design computer (my daughters, she is officially the head design person) and while loading all the programs and crap that we need to do business I ran across the invoice for a computer purchased on 12.27.2000- by the time it was set up the hardware cost was $2600...

I am going blind trying to match this- never have been good with serif fonts. Thanks Gene

that I bought years ago and cannot find now. I would like to have another of them. Anyone recognize it? The brand name is 'Lowe' and the anvil that the blade cuts against was the length of the blade before it was 'repurposed' :rolleyes:. Thanks Gene

My sweetie just took a part time job using MSword and I am trying to help her- she needs a box with a check in it for a document. So I found it in wingdings- the character code is 0xFD- but my progs will only accept numerals from the 10 key portion of the keyboard. Something I don't...

I have Estimate 1 and am about to upgrade to 2.0. I believe that it will handle the estimating end better than what I am using. My concern is with the invoicing function- does it do what you need it to and is it easy to use? I read a couple of questions in their support forum that got me...

I am noticing a couple of behaviors with my VP540 that are curious. The machine seems to slip from 'sheet scan' to 'full width' scan a lot- I cannot seem to be able to identify when this happens. I print mostly 30" vinyl and if it is not set to 'sheet scan' (menu>submenu>full width...

I am having issues- I suspect that almost all VP owners use VersaWorks- wondering if anyone else has tried this. Thanks Gene

I have never noticed this before- when I make a gradient from say PMS485 red to black- that the 485 end is not actually 485- it is washed out. It looks the same on the monitor (unless I use softproof) but it prints lighter. What am I missing here? Thanks Gene

I have struggled with this for years- I realize that it works only to the point of there not being a node too close to any corner. Are there any other tips for using this tool that I am missing. Thanks Gene

When I change the page size in a file I usually have to save the file and reopen it to be able to select any object. This happens most often (I think) when we open an existing older flexi file, but it has happened with new files as well. Any thoughts? Thanks Gene

I have a 400 disk changer and a 300 disk changer that play music CDs all day (and sometimes all night). These are Sony Mega Storage and they are pretty much the only thing that I buy extended warranties on. But they are getting long in the tooth and I know that they take a real beating from...
