68' of wallpapering...er wrapping....fun!

Yeah, I was trying to ,make the roll length in the RIP (Flexi 8.5 as well) as long as I could and it stops about 25' short of the whole roll. I haven't tried extending my print boundaries, but will try it. The only thing I have found that almost religiously works (So long as you remember) is...

Yeah - figured it out as I loaded a new roll this weekend. Seems pretty good, but I thought it would get away from the dreaded "end of roll" message that will often ruin a panel on my large jobs. Seems like a good idea, but functionality is missed.

Nope. Not really. What I ave learned is that it is for estimating how much is left on the roll - How much is left on Roll 1 - Roll 2 - Roll 3, etc... This would be really helpful! What I can't find is how you set how long the roll is to start. Might just go and set it to Roll 1 and see...

Was looking for anything that tells me what to set, or where to set this up. It is accessed through: Setup -> Roll Length -> - Off - Roll 1 - Roll 2 - Roll 3 Does anyone know?

You have too many feet down. Pretty much same setup and I ran into the same deal - I was using 3 feet and the machine only wanted two. Burned through a bit of vinyl to learn that....

Make sure that parallels "captures" the dongle. Unplug it, plug it back in and a window should appear asking you if you want Windows to manage the device, or Mac. Choose Windows and it should recognize it. I am using the dongle-less 8.5 so I am not sure that will help, but it would be the...

the problem that you are having is with the resolution of the effects/stylize menu options. By default, the resolution is 72 DPI. You can change this setting by clicking on EFFECT -> Document Raster Effect Settings. Change the resolution to 300 DPI at a minimum (Depends on your scaling when...

The Sharpie trick doesn't show any difference, and to the naked eye, I can't see much of anything on the media. I thought I could, but as I look everywhere else on the roll, I can see spots of the same thing. Oooohhhhh Fffeeeeelllllllleeerrrrrssssss......

Just ran some other media through and have no problems. Would appear as though I am stuck with a bad roll - will try your sharpie idea - Thanks!

Going to load some spare media and see, but I really need to be printing!!!

I am in the middle of a huge job on my 1604 and I load a new roll of media and this happens every 12-13 inches in the same spot. I unloaded/reloaded the media same thing. I moved the position of the media, same thing. I cleaned the wiper/printhead, etc... same thing. It looks like the ink...

Funny too that a 10' crate needs to be lowered on a 4.5' liftgate. My driver was not impressed, but with a little work it was done. Too bad that we had an ice storm the day before it was delivered and it took him 6 or 7 tries to get the truck up the drive... ;) Since they were putting it into...

With all the curves, you may be better off tracing/cutting a large piece of paper and making a template from that. You could mock one up , but for printing, you will want a flat piece of paper to design on. Just my thought on how I would handle it.

InDesign - Especially if you are used to using Adobe products. Recently finished a 840 page rulebook in InDesign as well as a 15 page catalog for a wheel manufacturer. Most printers will handle the InDesign file, but on the rare occasion they don't, you can create a PDF. Quark is also...

You can also create paths in PhotoShop and save as an EPS - that will translate into a file with a cutting path down the road. You don't need a vector based program, but the time saved in getting rasters to print like a vector will easily pay for the program.

I guess that I should pass along an update - I having been running on Parallels with 8.5 and haven't had any problems. Things are working very smoothly!
