  1. VP-540 Maintenance Question

    I just had Jeff from Xpress change mine with the large screen ones- seems like a obvious upgrade. They did not address the problem I had hoped but were getting old ( I think my VP is a year older than yours). Gene
  2. How to cut a 20ft long stripe

    Unless it is a fiberglas side on the truck- it will be 4 foot panels anyway? So easy to cut 2 10'2" stripes.
  3. Subscription only software - would you?

    I too am concerned about this- my understanding is that the people who sign up for the subscription service do not have to pay the 900-1000 up front- just the monthly. I am not sure where this leaves those of us who dutifully bought the software- can we not purchase the upgrade out- right...
  4. Werid Calibration Print Problem

    Off the topic- but... how did you take the macro picture? Thanks gene
  5. It's scary

    And if a Canadian cannot understand a Aussie- what chance do we have?
  6. Experience with Medal Foils?

    Sorry about the crappy pict but this has been on our frt door facing south since Dec 2004 and is still as new. Gerber silver metal with a 1mil laminate from Graphic Marking Systems. The lettering, headlamps, door handles and wheels are chrome.
  7. Cool Site

    Don't feed the Bob.
  8. Strange request/celebrity photos

    So... is the women's bathroom nice?
  9. Preview_1.tif problems

    I am currently in a death struggle with a 10ft tall by 26 ft trailer that we are wrapping- and running out of time. My latest problem is a file showing up in the Que A folder called 'Preview_1.tif' . if you even touch it VW crashes like a stone. It is some sort of preview bitmap generated by...
  10. What might cause this striping?

    I have been getting the striping in some colors for a while- seems like I have seen it before when I was trying to get Wasatch to work and I switched to Vworks and it cured the problem. Pertinent info: VP540 with Triangle bulk ink system, VersaWorks 4.?, just replaced all of the dampers-...
  11. Margret Calvert...the grand dame of British street signs

    Thank you- she is a Hot Grande Dame- and holds her own with JM.
  12. tool for cutting backing paper off in the middle...

    I use the same 3M paper cutter (only not pink)- I put a piece of 'slick tape' on the bottom. I cut and then fold back an inch and press it flat with a palm roller- one person can easily hang the sheet in position and then start the backing peeling down in a roll to start squeegeeing.
  13. Gerber edge le modification

    Excellent for working in the dark also!
  14. Aaaaaaaaargh!!! Carved a sign wrong!! (I hate Flexi)

    Gotta think that it is a stretch blaming this on Flexi if you didn't use one of their import filters. Most errors here are operator errors.
  15. Font Id please

    I'd say you are right on the money. Thank you sir. Gene
  16. Font Id please

    Does anyone recognize this font? Thanks Gene
  17. VersaWorks 4.0 paneling problems?

    You have sharp eyes my friend- and I have a dull mind- here it is. And no- it is not a media width problem. Gene
  18. Cadlink wants $800 so I can use Windows 7

    And you didn't see that coming?
  19. VersaWorks 4.0 paneling problems?

    Anyone else having problems? I have been printing a lot of paneled signs and a couple times have gotten what looks like a barcode (see pict) and sometimes it will only print the 1 inch overlap- not the panel that is attached to it. Don't remember this before upgrading to 4.0. Gene
  20. cut contours rather tears the vinyl!!

    I think that this is part of having a drag-knife cutter, I have the problem on my Gerber enVision and both Roland print/cut machines I have had. It is worse on 'RA' (air release) and happens alot on regular vinyl. Rounding sharp corners works.
