I bought the car image, then downloaded it, copy/paste,etc. Then made the rectangular border tansparent, thus the need at that moment for having it's own contour cut. (i'm missing something here, i'm sure)

I designed this logo, brought in the car image and put it in an appropriate spot. When done I made a countour cut around entire thing so I could make some small decals, but noticed now that it's time to cut them out it also wants to cut the car image out from the middle of the decal as well! (If...

Feb./March/April are big for us in race car stuff. It's seriously "low-hanging fruit", and I get at least one instance every spring where we do some Sponsor logos for a team, the sponsor is impressed with the outcome, then we end up getting a call from them to do decals, truck lettering, etc. No...

My experience has been that lamination is essential on race cars, as the spray chemicals used on race car parts, etc. will immediately wipe the ink right off the vinyl.

There's a guy ( Orange Fat Kat Media is the business name ) that does fluorescent print vinyl for race cars (not an overlay) that appears to be one of the only few that can. Just started offering it a few months ago.

Yes, ours is a brand new Roland VG540

About to do a job with a fair amount of yellow in it, and noticed the "exclamation point/warning" symbol over one of my yellow levels. (See photo) Considering that my other level of yellow is quite full, I'm gonna be fine-right?? (In other words, what happens if that side runs low/out-does it...

Great insight, leaving me optimistic it can be fixed. If yours was new like ours, can I assume your fix was covered under warranty??

That was my very first thought as well- a lightly-manipulated version of "Impact".

Update- I had great success with the cut registration marks laid over the existing laminated marks. (First time since we got this new equipment back in late feb. that I've been able to cut numerous jobs in a row!) My guess this means there's an adjustment needed on the sensitivity of the reader??

I'll be following along, hoping for a found solution for you, as i'm having a similar problem with our brand new VG540, but for me it happens on the initial front two marks, not ever getting to the rear two. ( the strange thing is- it works sometimes! (about 1 in every 4-6 diff jobs is a...

Ah, ok-now I get it. Yeah, those are pretty cool. (may have to find a youtube video of that being done-bet it's fascinating to watch.

Could someone post a photo of this "domed" product? (Btw- We used to farm-out our small decal printing to a local guy before we got our own equipment to do them. He would tell me to use the stickermule site to figure out cost, and we'd just mark up from there. It honestly worked great, but just...

Traveling to Boston Sunday to pick up our Laminator, but will try another one hopefully in the am before we leave. (Super-grateful for the helpfulness & compassion you've shown.)

I'm a couple days from my laminator arriving, so for this print, I just cut off a piece of laminate and laid it right over the print, squeegee-ing it into place. It appears "less than perfect", w/several small bubbles-could this be the root of the problem???

I read a section in the manual about "manually setting the registration marks", so I also tried that. It proceeded to go, starting with recognizing marks #3&4 first, then it started its "shimmy dance", half way across the material before stopping and alerting me once again of the problem. (Think...

They are indeed an accidental test print that occurred ,numerous attempts into this dilemma. And thank you for the pinch roller tip!

No, I get you. It's doing exactly as you just just described. It for certain reads the first one, and usually halts half way across to the second, fidgets around there for a few seconds-that's when the message will appear....

Here they are....

Getting the same message, no matter my approach in my first attempt to cut after laminating. ("CROPMARK ERROR -NOT FOUND") (Roland VG540) Hope to solve thus, as the jobs are starting to come in and don't want them to pile-up! Lol! Thanks in advance, all
