Another sign shop guy in town sends me lots of files to print. He designs everything with CorelDRAW X8. I open his files with CorelDRAW and export them as PDF files. Most of the files that he sends over with outlines open in my Flexi 11, like you see in the screen shot, with all the little...

I have a few small print jobs for reflective vinyl and would rather not buy transparent foil. Just wondering if anyone here has successfully used non-transparent foil with an Edge printer to print on white Oralite 5700 reflective vinyl? I an using intense red and bright blue. I did a little...

See attached pix.

My 1204 has been acting up for a while with banding in blue and green colors. 1440X720 and 1440x1440 printing masks the problem mostly. The one-button nozzle test from the control panel shows that all cyan jets are firing as they should. But, a self-diagnosis nozzle test print shows a big...

It's about time to replace the old FC-7000-75 plotter. I don't run it all the time, so I don't need the top-of-the-line plotter. I'm looking at a CE-6000-120. It is a 48" plotter and my 1204 is a 48" printer. Mostly I would use it for contour cutting. From those of you who have used this...

I am selling one of my Envision 375 plotters. I bought it from another sign shop that was closing a few years ago. I used it for a couple of months for nothing but contour cutting and had NO problems with it. Don't think it has been used much. It is clean inside in places that I see no easy...

Which print head is in the ValueJet 1324? Is it a DX5, DX6, DX7 or something else? TIA for your answer.

Hello. Is there any place that sells short rolls of cast, Eco-solvent, printable vinyl and matching cast laminate? If so, please share their contact info. Thanks!

When printing a large, solid-color block in an attempt to recover missing jets, what is the best wave pattern (if any) and dpi (540X720, 720X720, 1440X1440) to use? And, should you use CMYK and "no color correction" so that only that color ink is printing? I have a 1204. And, has this method...

Is there any formula for figuring the size of labels to go on pipes. For example, if you have a pipe that is 2" in diameter, what is the best height for a label to go on this 2" pipe?

I started to print a file last Friday and noticed that 12 yellow and 4 magenta jets were not firing. After several cleaning cycles and head soakings, the same jets were still not firing. I put a new cap top on the MS and it's pulling ink through the head as it should. So today I decided it...

Which minutes are counted? The minutes the printer has been turned on, the minutes the printer has been online, or the minutes it has actually been printing?

I have not used gold mirror very much. But, I have read that it will not hold up for outdoor use, like stickers for vehicle windows. Is that true? I will print on Oracal 651. If I laminate it with Oracal 210 overlaminate, will the gold mirror then last a few years outdoors? Thanks for any...

This one is probably easy. Close up it looks like a bad trace job.

This one is probably easy, but it's not in my collection.

Looking for a bit of font help again. And how do you avoid those unwanted white spots? Welding does not help.

I put in a new cyan ink cart this morning and I get the "Broken Chip" error. Does this mean that the smart card chip on the cartridge is broken or is the chip inside the printer that reads the smart card broken? There is nothing about this in the service manual. Any help is appreciated.

I have had to reinstall a Windows OS before because little, bothersome, aggravating things start happening. And, after the reinstall things work as they should. Is FlexiSIGN like that? I am using Flexi 11 on a Windows 7 64bit computer. Here are 4 issues that I have noticed here lately: 1...

I think this is arial black, but the "C" looks more closed. Opinions welcomed and appreciated.

Don't think I've ever seen this one before.
