  2. Canvas Prints Stretched on to Frame

    "There's absolutely nothing to it and it's just one of those skills you need to be in this business." Good for you! That it is so easy for you! I am a bit challenged and stretching canvas (I have all the tools you mentioned) is not one of the skills I am a master of. But guess what? Still in...
  3. Canvas Prints Stretched on to Frame

    I bought the easy wrap system from Breathing Color. Oh my gosh it looks so much easier then the stretching and stapling. Thanks Guys!. Paula
  5. Canvas Prints Stretched on to Frame

    Applied to a box Instead of the stretcher bars...does anyone know how to put the canvas to a hard art box...it would still be wrapped. I have seen these in galleries/stores. Utrecht has the boxes but I am not sure about applying the printed canvas to it. Does anyone do this type? Paula

  13. In search of a good mimaki tech that knows flexi

    Test draw is good...dampers are good...both techs realigned/recalibrated (thats the same right?) Printing at 720, 8 pass, dither FMX press. I swear what kills me about the techs....they are like doctors, they are practicing medicine...you have to pay them whether they heal you or not.

  16. In search of a good mimaki tech that knows flexi

    yes....attached is the print from the rasterlink rip (1st) and 2nd is from flex. On the first print...there must have been dust on the end of the roll ...which is what those dots are...the streaks is what concerns me. On the flexi I printed slow unidirectional. Thank you.
  17. In search of a good mimaki tech that knows flexi

    I know it must be difficult to figure a printers problem, but there has to be someone who can get my mimaki jv3-130spII to print like it did a month ago. A month ago the printer started having drop outs on greens, I sent pics to the guy I have been using....he thought I needed a new black head...

  19. IRENE..What a pain in the A__!

    My shop is in a 100 yr flood plane. Everything is up on tables. The office where the printer is, about 2 ft elevated...so hopefully that will be ok. If the rain is just steady I think it will be fine...only time there has been flooding here that I know is when alot of rain comes quick. In 2004...
  20. Anyone on Facebook? Are social networks really this addictive?

    I think it is much easier to navigate my business page then the website. I always have facebook on all day in the back. I love it...I have the best news feed.
