  1. Need Help Has anyone Purchased the new S60600 printer

    I think you are referring to the 80600 series. We have seen it demo'd and it looks even more awesome than our current generation 70670/70675 printers that we love. We run Onyx 11 here and do a LOT of large prints/runs. Tried latex and wasn't happy, so we went with Epson and love it.
  2. Black Friday

    We are offering next-day service and returned phone calls. (Monday!) Have a great weekend, and don't work too hard if you have to come in Friday! ;)
  3. Head scratcher weeding issue?

    Check your blade with a loupe, it probably needs changed. Ours get "mysteriously damaged" here occasionally, I think a bit of grit gets picked up by static off the floor sometimes and the blade tip gets chipped off. However, if taking the blade holder out and re-seating it "helps" then your...
  4. Anyone printing clear decals? What Printer is best for you?

    The printers I am talking about above are Epson SureColor S70670 and an Epson SureColor S70675. We also have Gerber Edge Thermal printers which do a fair amount of printing on white also.
  5. Anyone printing clear decals? What Printer is best for you?

    We do a good amount of prints on clear and also use the white ink for other things. We use Epson SureColor Eco-Solvent printers. They do a great job for us. HOWEVER, we still have yet to use the (other, optional) metallic ink for any retail job.
  6. 3M Feller's availability?

    Talk with your local salesperson and tell them to keep a roll or two in stock there. Who are you ordering from? Fellers takes good care of us here on 3M products.
  7. Question Is There a Clear Vinyl for Textile Use?

    No idea what "textile vinyl" is. There are tons of "clear vinyls" of different degrees of clarity. Optically clear vinyl might be what you want, but it has to be applied wet.
  8. Variable data on decals

    Variable data is also built into InDesign. Make your single-up file in InDesign and run the variable data program to generate your new doc of all the "finished" data. Then export that into a PDF and then place those into a new IN or IL document. Protip: Put the "CutContour" spot color in the...
  9. Can you run a CJV30-160 and a CG160 FXII from the same computer at the same time?

    Sounds like there are a lot of options, we use Onyx RIP to drive multiple printers/plotters here.
  10. Looking for a printable, plotter cutable, prismatic material

    Reflexite by Oracal "SHOULD" be cut-able, but not for small pieces, I know it is solvent printable. Avery also just came out with some new similar reflective vinyls, I only have some small samples of them though so I have never tried printing on them. Either way, you're going to have to do a...
  11. Need Help Folding Portable Trade Show Booth Prints Questions...

    You can use just about any no-curl banner. You can use any matte laminate, if you want to be fancy use a floor laminate. No one is really going to scratch these up. You can hand cut new "hanger tabs" from thin sintra/plastic/pvc stock if you have an original as a template. You can buy magnet...
  12. Why no love for 3M vinyl?

    I think I've tried most brands, and I almost exclusively use 3M products whenever possible.
  13. data matrix generator

    Be careful using online generators, as a lot of the time they go through a "proxy" of their own to get you to the info and track you. Also, if their proxy/site ever goes down all your decals are now junk. A customer of ours had a hot air balloon "printed" with a QR code they made through an...
  14. data matrix generator

    post a photo of you non-working decal. is there sufficient white space around the outside of the black area?
  15. Opinion Biting the bullet and looking for a new eco-sol/solvent printer

    For the price we have been very satisfied with out Epson EcoSolvent printers.
  16. 360 Red Printing Question

    I could get GREAT reds using 16 pass, but using lower pass settings dulled out the reds a lot.
  17. Does this font look familiar to anyone?

    close to Bebas Neue
  18. 360 Red Printing Question

    Good luck, I assume it was done with a custom profile that adds a certain percentage of black to the red colors. Did you send them the test file? I would see what the color values were for that area, possibly 0/100/100/25? that might result in a deep red. Our 360 printed pretty decent reds when...
  19. photoshop newbie question regarding image sizing and pixelation

    Illustrator/InDesign's on-screen previewing capabilities are not the best, so you can't trust "how stuff looks" in them. You have to know or trust your original image's quality and whether or not is going to work at the intended size; 100+dpi is plenty fine for large format. Your image sounds...
  20. Illustrator/Photoshop Layout

    You are going to have to learn a 3d software program if you want to do this. The flattened PhotoShop artwork will be a "skin" or image map for your 3d model; which you're also going to have to be able to design... NOT an easy task.
