  1. FC700 MK2 130 is drunk....

    I have started seeing issues with my plotter starting a few months ago... I normally cut large contours, but occasionally I get small cut jobs. It used to be a champ, cut great with no issues. I just recently replaced the cutter strip (three years on) and the blade holder and blade... no...
  2. Maintenance Station Replacement

    Seen a few threads on here regarding this, none with any actual technical information though. Unless there are no walkthroughs or technical info available... hard to believe. Can anyone actually HELP in replacing this part? Any photos or diagrams?? I find these sorts of things to be rather...
  3. Mutoh 1204 VJ Print Issues

    3 year old Mutoh VJ 1204, no major service ever done, just had an issue with an empty cartridge that was pulling ink into itself and not printing correctly. I fixed that but the vinyl I was using tunneled on the platen and I believe I got headstrikes. No amount of cleaning has made any...
  4. magenta printing black

    Ok. new prob. did a strong clean (VJ1204, about three years old, original heads, eleven ten eco-sol inks) and an alignment check, but my printer is running black out of the magenta nozzles. Did a nozzle check too, it's running full.. no breaks. Just black from the magenta channel. They're 220...
  5. seeking specific house vector

    Ok, to head off any of those supremely useful posts like "from this quote on your website you shouldnt NEED to use clipart" or anything not related to identifying this image, this is from a company that only has a paper print from a tshirt proof. Also they have a screen printer reticent to give...
  6. Engine Turn effect/filter/plug-in for Photoshop?

    Anyone have anything like this and know where to find it? I need to fill some letters but I really can't justify buying the big fill cd's when it's the only effect I've seen that I CANNOT render myself. Anyone?
  7. Font ID pleeeeeze!!!!

  8. Vector art of a big sportfishing boat

    Ok. I have been looking online through EVERYONES catalogs and have found one thing sorely missing from ANY catalog of boat vector art. I need a vector of a big sportfisher with a nice big tower heading away at an angle.. I have been looking for DAYS for this. NONE of the "VECTOR-ART" collections...
  9. 3 yr old 1204 VJ, just started to do this please check out these photos!!

    Switched out to Eleven ten a while back, not sure if this has anything to do with it. Got some screwy banding in last week's run of printing, and the last three or four things I've run have this bleeding out of the cyan that I can't figure out. Any help/advice/suggestions would be very helpful...
  10. Magenta printing super light VJ 1204 (2 yrs + old)

    Problem cropped up Friday. Magenta is printing super light. Run many cleaning cycles, total maintenance this morning and 2 STRONG cleaning cycles and if I set a circle to print at 100% magenta it comes out orange. Everything else is running fine and there are no breaks in the nozzle check of any...
  11. Uh oh.

    Heard an odd sound the other day while printing. I had just started having problems with saturation, and was fiddling with my output profiles to correct. Hadn't switched materials or anything, but had been trying out some prints in greyscale. So, I get back to color and find that my Magenta...
  12. Beware, Flexi Strikes Again

    Now it seems that flexi has taken it upon itself to dump when I plug an external hard drive into my USB hub. As well as when I try to process a complex contour cut, or when I process a detailed outline, or when I try to magic wand a selection out of a high-res bitmap, or when When the moon is in...
  13. and again. the failure known as Flexi shows it's true colors

    now this crapware dumps nearly every time I try to use the arced text tool.
  14. Flexi just basically sucks.

    Nothing creative or helpful here. Just that Flexi sucks. It gets it's panties in a bunch if you even think about contour cutting a complex shape. It will dump without a moment's notice and basically blows donkey #$%#. Hope that helps.
  15. Flexi-Turd 8.1v1 craches when trying to mw a bitmap

    when trying to magic wand a bitmap to make myself a clean contour cut, if I'm working with a large 300 dpi plus image, this crapware just gives me an "unrecoverable error" message and dumps right there. now, i'm not running a $500 dell desktop here. It's got 4G of good memory and an intel dual...
  16. Craptasmigorical.

    I do so much love Flexi. Production Manager has now taken to just DUMPING at any time it feels the need. Just to be neighborly, it takes the running application of Flexi with it. Wish the salesman had told me I should dedicate one computer to this not-ready-for-prime-time software, because...
  17. Tint Cutting Templates or Software

    Been asked before, but I thought Id update the question. What kinds are available? Does anyone offer an AFFORDABLE solution? I know TintTek and their $1900 "annual update fee" crap, isn't there someone that sells discs full o templates? Anyone? My landlord wants to set up his second store that...
  18. Getting FC7000 to work serial... help?

    Screwed the pooch, broke the USB port off the board on my MK2. Got the old port off, waiting to get new ones in the mail (not a warranty covered item...) so I can have it soldered on. Problem being, I wanted to be able to run in the interim (it's damned hard to find anyone to solder on PC boards...
  19. why does "reduce points" refuse to work for me?

    I've played with all the settings... when I'm creating contour cuts from bitmaps, I invariably get complicated outlines... which makes my contours either needlessly complex or so jagged that they come out ugly. This doesn't happen every time, but when it does I try the "reduce points" tool...
  20. help! need a heat press, don't want to spend a grand!

    I have been looking since I opened my shop, now I have three or four of my best customers who want short-run color apparel.... I need to be able to set them up and I'm not buying a DTG for four dozen shirts a year.... any suggestions on what brands to avoid? one of my suppliers sells a...
