OK - I have a Graphtec FC8000-130. Has been working perfectly. Yesterday, I cracked open my PC case to put some more RAM in. Done. Fire the PC back up, and everything is working just fine. Except when I send something to the plotter from Cutting Master I am getting the following error: E02001...

OK. There is probably a simple fix for this, but I can't find it. I'm cutting directly from Illustrator. This is a 14"x98" piece, and Cutting Master is automatically tiling it. There is no reason to tile it. I can't get cutting master to NOT tile. HELP!

OK....After reviewing Shane Durnford's new website which was kindly posted in another thread, my itch to start playing around with hand crafted signage is starting up again. I'm a computer guy. I can design. I do it all the time. It's just, well, virtual. And damnit, I want to MAKE something...

OK - I've got a VJ1304. This started yesterday, and I haven't been able to get it figured out. The picture below shows two images. (I've got to do a run of posters). They are the same image, and were in the same print run, side by side. If you look at the image, imagine it is coming off the...

Hey everyone! Back here in dreary Ohio from the sunny Caribbean. Had a great week of vacation - now I have to get back to work!

Hey guys - working on a CD jacket design for my band's new EP. We are just doing sleeves, so only a 2 panel. Here are the three I have come up with. Also, the titles are just placeholders. We haven't decided on a project name yet. This fold in the middle, so the image on the right is the "front"...

Hey all! I know some of you have been thinking of buying a laminator - well, our 50" Tri-Seal is on the market :) http://www.signs101.com/pp-classifieds/showproduct.php?product=212 Really solid machine - just don't need it anymore and it's taking up space. Have a few other pieces of equipment...

OK...I know that the resounding answer is going to be "DON'T DO IT!", but let's set that aside for now :) I've been reading my warranty (Mutoh factory warranty), and it appears that if I switch to NON-OEM inks during my warranty period that if any problems arise with anything that the ink...

Hey everyone! I know alot of us here are music people as well as sign people. My band just got finished in the studio a couple of weeks ago on our EP, and I thought I'd post a link so any of you who wanted to could take a listen. I'm the vocalist and rhythm guitarist, as well as the songwriter...

I think this wrap tried to kill me. Multiple re-prints - design changes galore (this is NOT what I originally designed), lamination issues - UGH!!! BUT, it is done now. Finally. Whatcha think? Gary

Holy crap. So, now that I've blown through about $400 worth of Cv3, I'm resorting to asking all of you for help with this STUPID LAMINATION!!!! Here's the rundown of what is involved. Royal Sovereign Cold laminator (55"). 3M 8518 Lam (54") 3M IJ380-Cv3 (54") Laminating prints that are 78"...

OK...This may sound a little "off", but I had an idea... I've got about 120' of material i need to lam. The material is on our printer's take-up roll right now. Has anyone every used the front "kraft paper" roll bar on their laminator to hold that take-up roll with your print on it, and then...

Anyone happen to know the name of the font used on old Buffalo Nickels? Here's a pic... Gary

So, I have the opportunity to speak to our local Rotary today about the value of proper signage, and where signage is headed. Pretty cool opportunity. I've got me notes prepared, but for the LIFE of me, I can't think of an appropriate signage related joke to open with. Anyone got one? Gary

Hey everyone! I'm trying to finish a quick layout for the rear window of a '99 chevy blazer. This is being done in perf. My PVO template is telling me that this window is only 19" tall by 52" wide. Does this sound right?? Seems like the 19" height is really short. Can anyone confirm for me...

Hey everyone. I thought I'd check here before I blow up our Advantage rep's phone. Mutoh VJ-1304. 3 months old. Came in this morning and went to run a print - and is only printing pure magenta. I'm trying to print black. Tried another file - also just pure magenta. I've done a cleaning and...

OK...I did a search and couldn't find anything about this related to the BS. Hoping that someone can help me. Starting to get the hang of laying down large prints with the BS (just did a 4'x10'...YAY!!). So, here's the problem. I laid down two 4'x8' prints on Friday. There were a couple of...

OK. Client is a local cafe/coffee shop. They wanted a new logo that was clean and "old" feeling. So, knocked that out. They loved it. I'm working on the business cards now, and I'm trying to steer them to a blend of modern and old. This is what I've got so far. Before I show it to them, I...
