    Yep, and no other system in the shop is having this problem.
  2. Flexi Freeze when trying to print

    Doubtful, Just stopped working in the middle of the day, no updates or new items installed, and still prints from every other program.
  3. Flexi Freeze when trying to print

    Ok, here is the deal, when I try to print in the current version of Flexi (I'm talking just printing to our laser printer for a proof), Flexi freezes and is unrecoverable. It's not the printer as I can print from any other application. Keep in mind, all I am doing is hitting the print icon on...
  4. Latex Printable Non-Curl Scrimless Banner for Retractables?

    Putting together a few retractable banner stands with graphics and require a non-curl material. I was looking as FDC 7606 but their product specs don't support it's compatible with latex. Has anyone tried printing on it, or have a suggestion for another material?
  5. looking for a link or someone to hire to teach me how make a sign lightbox

    The lack of a UL certification doesn't make a sign illegal, unless you're in an area that requires UL certification. Dependent upon location, UL requirements are fulfilled simply by supplying the proper data sheets for the UL listed power supplies, LEDs and wire being used to fabricate a...
  6. Boat Name

    Any guesses? Thanks in advance;)
  7. Looking for a good argument for local municipality to allow Push Through Acrylic sign

    Exactly!...pretty much my words to them. I think it's more than nobody else in the area has the capacity to fabricate push-through signs, so it's kind of new to them....they fear change. ;)
  8. Looking for a good argument for local municipality to allow Push Through Acrylic sign

    OK, so we CANNOT craft any signage that has any type of front face illumination. No light boxes, no standard channel letters etc... But we CAN have Halo lit channel letters. So my current discussion with the town is to allow push-through signs. Since they technically satisfy the "indirect"...
  9. Graphtec FC-7000 - won't go into media detect mode - Position error HELP!

    Found the issue last night. The electronic eye that is on the underside of the card atop the cutter/pen carriage got bent out of place. The casing came off around the IR diode and blocked it from "seeing". Bent it back up into place and all is well.
  10. Graphtec FC-7000 - won't go into media detect mode - Position error HELP!

    OK, I load the media, select ROLL ONE REAR SET. The display reads: PRESS ENTER AFTER RELEASING MEDIA LOCK. I press enter then the carriage CRAWLS to the left until it hit the post and I get a POSITION ERROR ON Y AXIS. Anyone know what may be wrong?
  11. WTF? Contour cut in Flexi converts to uneven dotted line?

    Nope. No idea what caused it. I think it may have been some type of corruption in the program. reinstalled and all is well.
  12. WTF? Contour cut in Flexi converts to uneven dotted line?

    This is driving me crazy for the last hour, and I have jobs to cut before end of day. It doesn't matter whether I create a contour cut via filter, or covert a path....the contour cut create is an uneven dotted line. It's only on our RIP/CUT station though. I opened the file on my sytem, and...

  14. Weird vinyl issue. Has anyone ever seen anything like this?

    I have seen this here locally on more than one occasion. I believe it may be an issue of a cheap calendared laminate over cast vinyl. Incompatible materials, cross brand sort of thing. Although there is no black on this vinyl, it exhibits the same burned look. Look how the laminate has...
  15. Flexi Crash Conspiracy?

    The only issue i seem to have with flexi crashing is when installing fonts through Nexus Font. The programs don't like each other. Also, every once and a while it seems Flexi has not communicated to re-license and it just shuts down, no opportunity to save files or anything. It tells me the...

    These are great. We use ours daily for a multitude of substrates.
  18. simple design for 12' wide 6' high sign

    Rick Nails it. The layout there with the comics sans and Blambot Comic Fonts....just terrible. Blambot fonts are great, for COMICS (Nate Piekos does fine work and is a great resource for the comic industry), just not here, ditch them for something more suitable.
  19. Need help on identity sign which needs to match existing at site

    It's a custom made sign. You have to reproduce it. The only direction we can point you in is how to fabricate it. Aluminum backer, painted with raised letters (Font is Optima). Looks almost like an ADA style sign. How big is it? If it's on the smaller side the letters may be rotary cut ADA...
