Okay, I'll try to answer everything in one go....
We've tried increasing and decreasing the temps and vacuum. Nothing helped.
Using the takeup reel doesn't help.
We've used two rolls of matte and two rolls of gloss purchased months apart. Same problem on both.
Three different people load the...
Our printer has started doing something weird. We can print entire rolls of IJ40, IJ185, Briteline vinyl, banner or paper and never have a head strike. For some reason IJ35 is horrible about getting them. It's not consistently in one spot, they'll show up randomly across the roll. We've...
Just going by what the box the supplier dropped off says. It's 30/70. It's Argent from Mac Papers which is apparently as cheap as you can get. We're going back to Clear Focus 50.50 for this just because I know what I'm getting.
What density of window perf is everyone using? We have always used 50/50 but Iately I've had two different suppliers tell me that most people are using 30/70. 30/70 just seems way too open to me, and with that little available print area I just don't see being able to get graphics to pop. The...
As someone who had that urge a few years ago that $400 I spent on cars and track would have been much better spent on pretty much anything else. The nostalgia wore off REAL quick.
We used to have a bottle of cleaner that would instantly remove the ink prints done on our L26500. It was handy when we'd get the odd small head strike along the edge of a print, just wipe it clean and go on. The bottle disappeared today and Google and Grimco haven't been any help. Anybody...
Customer calls. Asks me if I've got a price for them yet. Ask them what they are talking about. Customer says he sent me a facebook message about a sign. Log into facebook, customer has sent me a message asking about a sign and tells me he will email me the art. Check email, no email. Call...
Bought my first real table saw and put it on casters. I didn't have a vacuum system and rolling it out on the porch to use it seemed like a brilliant short term plan. First day, first board, lets make a frame for a sign....kicked back a 2x6 straight into my...ummm....twig and berries....with...
Not that it helps but I did some day care windows last year for a guy that held his cell phone camera right up against it and showed me the "too blurry to tell what in the hell I'm looking at" video and pitched a fit that you could still see through it.
Our HP L26500 had a media jam yesterday like we've never had before. The vinyl material wrapped around the roller that advances and rewinds the vinyl. It took a couple of hours to finally work it all out of the machine. Load new material, start it up, it prints just as good as ever. Only...
CM3 won't work with the latest Illustrator upgrade. CM4 keeps randomly changing the condition settings on the plotter. Set the plotter on Condition 1 manually, sometimes it will stay on 1, sometimes it randomly changes it to 3. Try "enabling driver options" in cutting master, sometimes it...
Seriously, they took all the great parts of ScanvecAmiable's Production Manager and the good parts of Cutting Master 3 and tossed all that out the window. They cobbled CM4 together out of the leftover scraps that didn't work.
I actually took it a step further and filed a Trademark application on it. The heart and bridge image (without the date and Wetumpka Strong) is part of a much larger marketing project I'm working on. The only reason I went after her was to stop if before it became an issue. She took a...
Oh, she tried to justify it because she took my design into Cricut Designer and traced it so that makes it hers. I told her it didn't work that way, she responded telling me that she pays for Cricut Designer Premium so she's protected.
