  1. Suggestions Difficult Client. Just Want Opinions.

    I dont know nothing about the OP, the client, or the overall purpose of the signs either. but i assume these signs are going to be passed around as a quick form of advertisement. IMO the client is just being a pain just because they can. if i where you i would talk to them and find out why...
  2. Roland VG-640 TrueVis - Eats Ink like no other

    I don't notice it some days on the VG. maybe 1 or 2 cleanings in an 8 hour time frame. but then they are other days. like today it does its cleaning, i turn it on it cleans again, load the material, cleans again, run a 4' cut job, cleans again. given most of these are quick cleanings its still...

  4. Applying graphics to 4x8 sheet by ones self

    +1 on the laminator..although if your like us and don't have a laminator that size. i would hinge it and do a 2' section on one side then slowly work my way to the other side using a normal squeegee. the big squeegee is nice but it does leave alot of bubbles if you cant apply the correct...
  5. Roland SG-300 waste

    not a clue on that one, i did ask the tech about that the day he installed my printer and it seems just to be a Roland thing, he told me there way no way to adjust that. i have to feed out a little before sheet cutting if im using reg marks. if anyone did find a way to adjust it i would very...
  6. Roland SG-300 waste

    yes lower the lever, let it do its thing, then backup to the edge of the vacuum strip and set base point. if doing a print cut with reg marks this wont affect it any as long as you repeat the same possess when putting the material back in for cutting say after laminating.
  7. Roland SG-300 waste

    back up the material and set a base point? a bit repetitive of a task but works well for me. i usually lineup the material with the edge of the vacuum strip.

  9. VersaWorks Dual question

    "Is this how "sticker" makers do it with 3 files? And with printing the crop marks I will have dead on cuts? I don't need to print anything longer than maybe 5' but I need the cuts to be precise since some of my items are 1/4 inch." sorry fusion i didnt see this question tell now.. i cant...
  10. VersaWorks Dual question

    I had assumed workflow as print-laminate-kisscut-perfcut. if there is no need to laminate after print then ya 2 files @fusion i mainly run PDF for the smaller file size but we do occasionally run EPS from my experience there is no difference.
  11. VersaWorks Dual question

    3 files, 1 print only, 2, kiss cut, 3 perfcut. make sure all 3 files are the exact same as far as art board size and saved in the same way. drop all 3 into versaworks and setup all 3 files the exact same way. (same number of copys media size ect.) make sure to have crop marks checked on all 3...

    we usually use Rolands HTM3 profile for heat transfers on high setting. I have never noticed a discoloration when printing from vector.. printing from raster however everything seems to get dark in a hurry. We one pass ours. To answer your question: I would say to just do a single pass. the...

  15. Looking at getting a TrueVIS SG 540 and the dealer wants to charge me...

    Dont feel to bad our dealer did the same thing to us. it all adds up pretty quick.. what i was told is we could skip the setup, training and travel fees, but we would lose out our warranty because it was not setup by someone certified to set it up.. so if it was defective out of the box for...

  18. Roland VG540 Ink configuration

    thats hard saying, Im running Double CMYK and love it just for the print speeds as well as i dont have to keep in stock so many different colors of ink. that being said i seen the printers with the light color setups and the prints look awesome. what i would say is ask yourself how often you...
