  3. Discussion I would just like to know....................................

    If you need the font simply to replicate their logo, why not just redraw it...faster than spending all that time searching, and waiting for responses on this forum. I miss the days when I first got my Gerber 4b with 2 FONTS... You can have helvetica medium or times new roman...take your...
  4. 4over just cost us a major client

    I do all my own banner stands and only use a decent stand that costs me $75.00 I have tried those cheap $25 stands that most re-sellers use and they are absolute garbage. I now tell clients that if they insist on having a cheap stand they can go elsewhere, I want no part of the experience...
  5. Need Help BUBBLES! Need clear answers on vinyl application

    I do just about everything dry, unless it is a second colour overlay and fairly large. I have experienced using 3M cast that there are times when I get some very small bubbles, even after doing what I felt was a great application. What I found out was as much as I wanted to rip it all off and...
  6. Boy there's sure two different kinds of customers isn't there?

    Oh I like the no walk ins.... Some days I feel like a McDonalds... Non stop people showing up..usually current clients and I always wonder why they would not simply call me or email me.
  7. Boy there's sure two different kinds of customers isn't there?

    LOL My blood pressure is high from reading that... There are so many different types of people out there, I have experienced them all. I will say the longer I do this the less tolerant I am, but still you get the bozo's from time to time. The good ones far outweigh the bad ones. I too...

  10. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    Even though you say that it was black vinyl I could only see something like this happening if it were printed black and then die cut far too fast on a solvent printer. I have never seen even the cheapest of the cheap vinyl ever do that ever!!! Something is not right here. PS I am no fan of...
  11. Can you swap out a jet best cartridge with an oem cartridge?

    Why would I want to do that...Simply my supplier ( the only one in Canada) are away until the 11th. I was pretty sure I had enough ink, but it seems that my yellow has gone down to the INK LOW warning way too soon. I figure I could just get an OEM Mimaki ink to use as we never needed to...
  12. Can't Find Particular Etched Film

    There are so many different types of films out there today. I had one client bring me a roll of film that was apparently frosted tint out of China. I was hesitant at first to try and cut it, as in the past I found cutting tint to be difficult, but this stuff was not only thicker than normal...

    I have done it on my Edge and it looks awesome.... no lam of course
  14. Avery 900 supercast 300c isn't even close

    Maybe it's me but I have a pantone book lined up with this Avery colour chart and not even a close match...in fact the Avery pantone 293 is a better match. Normally I would not be so anal, but this is for a transit company that already has 100's of vehicles driving around, and I am being rushed...
  15. Can a dye sublimated display be cleaned?

    Customer spilt coffee on their 4x3 hop up and wants to know if it can be dry cleaned or cleaned at all. The fabric I found out is a powerflex polyester with lycra. I only suggested that they try using a damp cloth with a very mild detergent first and if that does not work, try and find an...
  16. Compensation for weekend work?

    Like Gino said, in the early days I used to work many more hours than now, trying to get established. My mindset now is I don't mind coming in the odd Saturday morning during the winter months or rainy days as I have a horrible habit of not sleeping much past 6am. I feel that it can make the...
  17. Need Help Gerber Edge FX won't boot up

    I know with mine, every few months I get a beeping, although mine is an Edge le. I have to flip it on it's side and open it up and seat all the boards and make sure all the plug ins are sitting correctly. Make sure you power it off and ground yourself before touching anything in there. Check...
