I refused an order to print pro abortion signs. It's my decision what goes through my shop.

I tried the cheaper blue tape from Amazon and my guys hated it. I just stick with the 3M.

We have an air dryer from Harbor Freight. Think it was around $400 and have used it for 7 years. It works great but have had to replace one of the regulators which is around $90.

Blame it on the Amazon Prime mentality. I tell customers we need 3-5 working days depending on order size. If they need it sooner they will need to pay a rush charge from $50 on up. A lot of them pay it.

I am buying a Kongsberg cutter and will be selling my 7 year old Multicam Router for $35K. I originally paid $78K. The routers hold their value as opposed to my HP FB500 which I will only be getting $10K. I am replacing the HP FB500 with an Agfa H2500i LED hybrid printer.

To eliminate liftup you can remove the rubber gaskets and install edge to edge then reinstall gaskets on top of film. You will need a special tool to lift up gaskets.

It needed a couple of new heads so I ended up selling it for $2500 on Ebay. It was a great machine but I'm glad it's gone. Always something fixing to break.

I got rid of my Soljet 6 months ago as the repair costs exceeded it's value. It was a great machine but didn't have time to keep fixing it or dumping good money into it. Bought a TruVis also to replace it.

I have a Roland TruVis VG2 and it's been a great printer besides for wraps. If the print has full coverage it needs 3-4 days to dry before laminating and wrapping and this is even with an additional dryer. For all other decals it has been great with no service issues. If you are doing that...

Nothing in life is simple. I used a template from BigCommerce and have spent hundreds of hours designing and adding products to it along with adding an online design tool. I've also had to use outside services to customize certain parts of the website. Lots of work but it has paid off.

Maybe your price was too low. I always at least double my price for Gemini and a lot more with signs365.

We also had an issue pop up today where the ink stops laying down. Friday we printed 80’ of Oracal calendared vinyl with a bright red background. Came back this morning to finish printing the job and the red is washed out and not bright red. Come to find out at 40’ on the job the red...

Maybe you need to replace your dampers. We had these issues with our old Soljet Pro-XCIII. I haven't had these issues my TruVis

We use our RollX to cut on. Just have a cutting mat on top.

Yes the dryer is helping. Vinyl is still a little tacky even though using Arlon Flite material but much better than Avery. We wrapped a trailer yesterday with Arlon Flite and it came out nice. When vinyl hits the trailer there is little slide ability. Looks like something I’ll have to live...

We printed a large pantone color chart and whenever we need to print grey's we pick a grey off the color chart we like and use that.

I switched over to Arlon since everyone is out of Avery and have found the same issues with Arlon. I am having a dryer installed on my Roland on Monday so hopefully that will correct the problem.

We already tried lowering ink limits without any success. You have to copy an existing profile and rename it in order to change the ink limits. I think we lowered it by 20% and it was the same as before.

We are using the correct orange/light black profile and have tried many others. My distributor has been out twice trying to correct the issues but no luck. I don’t feel it is an Avery issue as we are having the same problem using Arlon and their profiles.

We have tried many profiles suggested by Roland and still have issues. Yes we also have a set up with a fan which blows down. After a wrap is printed the material is uncoiled and rests on the fan. The wrap can sit on the fan for days then it goes to get laminated. Still tacky.
