  1. X-Rite i1 Basic Pro 2

    I've been trying to dig into past threads in regards to spectrophotometers without much luck, so I apologize if this has been hashed out before. Basically, I'm tired of having to manually color match customer colors to a bunch of different color swatches we have printed and stapled to the...
  2. Options you'd like to see in VersaWorks?

    I agree with pretty much everything mentioned so far. However - am I the only one who has a hell of a time getting CutContour lines to work straight out of CorelDraw? I used to have no problem out of X3 but with X6 - anything with a raster image in an eps or pdf I've had to launder through...
  3. Odd happening with versaworks

    Tony, We're having the exact same issue here. I was running 4.8.0 on my XJ-540 though, I hadn't updated to the newest so I'm going to try that. In the last two days my printer has printed the last job twice. This happened on two occasions with two different jobs. I can't say I noticed what the...
  4. 1080 black carbon fiber weird "crinkles" after installation

    Yeah, had I noticed it I wouldn't have let it out of my shop. You can only see it at specific angles, wasn't noticeable where we were working. Client only saw it after he took it outside the next day. The reason we didn't go horizontal surface first was because of how how concave the back trunk...
  5. 1080 black carbon fiber weird "crinkles" after installation

    Please see the attached pic. This is the rear trunk of a Lexus IS300. I was working out some tension when I applied this, though I was able to get the grain of the carbon fiber relatively straight despite that. Now there is something all I can describe as a crinkle, that you can see when the...
  6. Tricks to designing this wrap?

    Anyone have any tips on how to design a wrap that will go from one side over the hood to the other side in one seamless design? I design in 2D each side then the hood last but not sure how to tackle something that continues seamlessly. I usually try to fade to a solid colour or add an obvious...
  7. X6 and CutContour

    Yes, the stroke shows 100% CutContour Hairline . Even when I bring the pdf back into corel, the stroke is still the same. One thing I did notice was that in X3 it doesn't have the 100% in the name of the color. Bringing in that same pdf exported from X6 into X3 retains the 100%, however. I found...
  8. X6 and CutContour

    Okay, I know this has been hashed to death - but the solutions provided in previous posts simply do not work for me. Background - I've been using Coreldraw X3 for about 5 years and our shop just upgraded to X6 this year. Haven't had problems with the CutContour prior to this. EPS or PDF files...
  9. Removing sharpie marker on a wrap

    Knowing how well hairspray eats away at the laminate I've put on my phone (I keep my phone on my counter in the morning, heh), I'd be careful about using this option and try a small section first.. I'd go with any alcohol-based cleaner personally.
  10. VersaWorks - rml files

    Sorry to bump up an old thread but I just came across this same error message myself today - the profile has the printer series named incorrectly in the RML file (missing a space in the name), I was able to open up the file in notepad and change the <strSeriesName>SOLJET PRO3 v2</strSeriesName>...
  11. Vinyl that accepts ball point ink and doesn't smear?

    No worries, I know how it goes :) Looking forward to hearing about the Roland paper. Just brought in a few yards of a matte printable vinyl, I think that might be the easiest solution for this. Thanks for everyone's help!
  12. Vinyl that accepts ball point ink and doesn't smear?

    Gary, well actually I did mention that they were going under the hood or door jams in my first post :) I want to stay away from paper if I can, but we'll see..
  13. Vinyl that accepts ball point ink and doesn't smear?

    This is a construction company that is using these oil change decals for their own personal fleet - they will be installed under the hood or in the door jam. I doubt that static cling would be appropriate for this use. The decals are roughly 4x3", red text on a white background that we print and...
  14. Vinyl that accepts ball point ink and doesn't smear?

    I tried searching this answer out before asking, but came up with nothing.. I have a customer who we have recently made vinyl oil change decals for - we used an oracal 3640 vinyl without a laminate for this job - they are writing on them for mileage, date etc. The problem is that the...
