Change that to something not called "High speed" and see what happens. Too dark/too much ink can be a result of a bunch of things. Has the same file been printed before? What does the image look like? Have you successfully printed on this machine before? What kind of media are you actually...

When it comes to Onyx, they have a ton of resources online. Their Onyx TV Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/OnyxGraphics Their website: https://onyxgfx.com/myonyx/?show=get_started#anchor-1 In terms of physically using your printer, your tech/dealer should have provided...

Lmao, I can't believe Accent signage or whatever can charge what they do for the pen and "license"....it's highway robbery really. I seem to remember the resin isn't too bad. There is a certain member here that runs one of these units and has for a while, I believe he's been happy with it for...

Man, I've had more 2:30am starts over the last month than I'd care to admit. Part excitement/part anxiety about the fact that I can't possibly get everything done every day. "Slept in" until 4 this morning, was a real treat but felt like I missed out on the start of the morning. :banghead...

Hmm, good questions. I wanna say subtractive so I can pop the beads in the old fashion way, to start. There is a cool additive solution out there, which apparently/theoretically can be mounted to just about any CNC with X/Y/Z axis control: https://www.quillada.com/

Laguna makes some badass tools. I almost went with them when we bought our 130W laser a month ago but we opted to go with a local company. I was also worried that I'd end up buying a couple of machines that we don't need/can't afford. I just spent all day playing with the laser, got it to...

That sounds like fun!! It's crazy what Mimaki etc. charges for those small flatbeds. I can see how they would be fun to have, but for that price you're half-way to a full sized flatbed. Speaking of Co2 lasers, todays assignment for us was getting our new laser to cut out 3/8" thick acrylic w/...

The first rule of fight club is, admitting that there is a fight club. Or wait... I feel like that isn't right. I feel your pain. We're very much in a different category compared to what you guys are doing (your game sounds much funner) but some days I definitely feel like I don't know what...

All good tips. I'd also add, and without trying to be rude or unhelpful, that you should spend some time to familiarize yourself with profiles, resolutions, file formats, and how they affect output. The fact that your customer provide a PDF file should not be a concern, it should be...

There's gold in them hills! Super helpful tips in there Mike. You ever paint the returns after? Don't mean to derail this thread but I'm in the middle of doing some figuring myself on a somewhat related project. We're laser cutting 3/8" acrylic letters that will have a brushed gold polyester...

You say it as if there's an app out there that you can just "use" to "produce sales"??? Figure out the target market/demographic for your top secret product, figure out where they hang out, sell to them there. There's your easy button answer.

Hey Bryson, welcome to Signs 101! I've signed up with your form, would love to be a beta tester for your app.

Wow, that seems kind of ridiculous.

Welcome to Signs 101. What happens if you turn overprint off on your PMS layer and make sure Spot1 layer is on top? Have you tried using Spot Layer Tool in Onyx? Might not help/achieve what you're looking for, but thought I'd mention it. Here's a cheesy old video about it: Hope that helps...

I don't have any experience with Latex or Resin printers, just wanted to give you a tip for loading multiple files, assuming you are using Onyx. (If not, then you may be correct about not being able to send down multiple jobs at once) In Onyx set your Placement Strategy to "Print Jobs...

Man, you guys are ruthless. Guy's asking a couple of questions regarding software and supplies, not to be lectured on how not to help his family. Newbie comes on here and asks something similar without doing any research on their own, sure let em have it. But a longtime member asking for...

Yeah we're definitely not running 5 rolls a day here. I thought the barrier to entry for Colorado was more like 10ish rolls a month? Either way, more machine than we need for now. I wish we had options like you're offering here in Canada, the Epson dealers up here don't know what they're...

Thanks Pauly, good to hear you've had a positive experience with yours. That's also good to know about the quality compared to Epson, that's a big factor for us and most of what we do. (small stickers) Knowing how much you guys are spending on filters, I'd probably opt to vent the unit...

Thanks Gene, appreciate the feedback. Seems to be a common theme with anyone running these things hard, which is what I thought they were designed to do. Not super encouraging, but good to know nonetheless. Our demands would be quite a bit less than most in this thread, from the sounds of...

Thanks guys, appreciate the quick answers. I tinkered with the Epson for a couple of hours this morning and have successfully printed 40' or so...not sure if it's temporary or not. Had 100% of the nozzles missing at first from not capping properly for the last 48 hours but got them all...
