    glass and wet means long dry time. if you do it wet on glass don't even think about taking off the application tape for an hour and if its cold just forget app fluid. do it dry on glass period
  2. Cut Thick vinyl, how?

    We had this issue also, adding pinch rollers is real expensive and only can be done at the factory. Tech told us to take blade out when first loading media, that obviously works. We have also found another solution that is to put the second pinch roller all in the same area as the far right...
  3. Suggestions for a New Cutter

    Roy We purchased the graphtec cause it got great reviews here on signs 101, and even Frank Fellers sells them (my hero). I am sorry it didn't work for us, it would have save me and my partner many arguments and helped get our work done. They had us sanding the crop marks, putting masking tape...
  4. Suggestions for a New Cutter

    We had the same experience with graphtec support. The tech came out and replaced our eye but the machine still would not work consistantly. sometimes find the marks, but sometimes not find them. sometimes if you kept sending the same file it would find them very time consuming and fusterating...
  5. Suggestions for a New Cutter

    We tried a graphtec fc8000 and could never get it to consistantly find crop marks printed with our Roland. We replaced it with a summa and couldn't be happier. If you use Versaworks for a rip you will have to add your own "opus" marks but if you use Flexi it will print them for you. Onyx and...
  6. printing program suggestions

    I also like Flexi for printing. Try downloading arlons dpf4560gtx profile and using that. As for versaworks I only use it on real big high res raster images that for some reason Flexi either gives a rip error or it will rip then only print the cut registration marks. The other reason I don't...
  7. Photoshop cs2 cut line ?

    If you designed it originally in flexi then you have the vector path. Just copy everything, then add a outline at 0 with outline set to countour. Separate the outline then use that to mask the photoshop .jpg file. Or you can save the transparent photoshop file as a .psd and import into flexi...
  8. Whole House Humidifier

    I didn't think of this till last night, but cleaning the duct work will probably help your kids asthma. My house is over 60 years old and when they cleaned the ducts out there was almost 2 kitchen sized bags of dirt. After that my allergy symptoms went away.
  9. Whole House Humidifier

    I have an Aprilaire on my forced air system. It works great there is a humidity setting knob at the furnace. The only problem I had with mine is the installer used one of those clamp-on water valves that pokes a hole in the copper pipe. After one year the valve failed and I replaced with a tee...
  10. is anyone using xenophen 2 with flexi

    Try coping xeno into the photoshop plugins folder in flexi C:\Program Files (x86)\SAi\SAi Production Suite\Adobe Plug-ins\Eye Candy 6 this worked for me.
  11. Computer upgrade question?

    I have 2 10000 rpm velocaraptors. I don't save any data files on the computer so if the drive crashes its only the operating system and drawing program to reload. Drawing files are kept in 3 places, 1 offsite weekly backup, 1 on a harddrive connecte by USB3 I work off, and 3rd in another...
  12. Computer upgrade question?

    I would agree with this setup. Definately whatever you do make sure you get 2 hard-drives in raid 0 array. Big time performance there.
  13. Giant novelty check/cheque

    Here is one I used once, I see I'm a little late but may help someone else! http://www.psdgraphics.com/psd/blue-check-psd-template/
  14. Older Versacamm

    IP on our vp-540 is 192.168.001.154 hope it helps
  15. Maybe a Roland Expert can help me

    The biggest variable with this is wheater you "poll the printer" for media width between print and cut cause then the center can change.
  16. Colors in flexi

    Sometimes using softproof under view menu helps this.
  17. Transparent area doesn't stay transparent when importing to Flexi?

    How about importing vector into flexi then use transparent lens tool under the effects pulldown.
  18. Cutting issues with Graphtec FC8000

    We tried everything tape, lights on, lights off, shining a flashlight on the mark and even sanding with 400. Sometimes it would find the marks, somtimes it would find three out of four, sometimes if you kept sending the same file it would find them, sometimes it would not ever find them...
  19. Cutting issues with Graphtec FC8000

    Yes, it should find them all without any help.
  20. Cutting issues with Graphtec FC8000

    Yes we tried that. The summa works real good, the only material it wouldn't find the marks on was chrome. The only things I don't like about it is that it needs a computer connected to it, cannot connect via network cable & no one comes out to set it up and show you how to work it. I was able...
