Something along those lines crossed my mind as I was leaving when I realized that the cutting strip is that tan color which is neither reflective or dark enough to provide any contrast.
Does the white vinyl on the cutting strip interfere with cutting at all? I guess I could pause it and pull...
Recently got a roll of transparent HTV and did a small print-and-cut job to test it out.
Of course, because nothing is ever simple, our vinyl cutter (Summa s2 t160) can't read the barcode or registration marks.
So far I've tried:
- calibrating the OPOS to the media
- putting multiple pieces...
Sorry ahead of time for how long this post is. There's also probably plenty of typos but it's Monday and I really don't feel like proof reading this lol ~
Relatively we don't do a lot of fabric printing but the vast majority of our fabric prints are on Endurafab Frontlit FR because a commercial...
That's a scan of a t-shirt and I photoshopped out as much of the texture as possible to upload the image to font ID sites, but the type on the original is clean enough that I feel like its a digital typeface, or at least digitally-created/printed. (not sure what everyones definition of hand...
lol to people getting up in arms but I get where the OP is coming from.
we rarely do installation but I’d love to be able to do some wall murals or stuff around the shop. it’s hard to justify spending the money on 3M installation tools when it’s not something we’d really get any return on so...
Every time I see the title of this thread I read it as “carving into produce” and every time I get excited thinking that someone out there is getting really creative and using their router to make beautifully carved vegetables.
This might be a stupid question but we do very little laminating so I don't have any experience to go off of, really.
Does it make a difference to laminate a print before or after it's mounted to a substrate?
If it makes a difference, this particular job is for small-ish dry-erase charts so...
I just started experimenting with HTV and got a 15" roll of Briteline (Grimco) 236 HTV.
They have a media profile for it online but my rip (Caldera) doesn't seem to think there is an ICC profile in the media profile so the color looks like shite.
Go figure, the printer needs material wider...
Yea, it is. They're a company that specializes in custom acoustic outfitting and we're one of their suppliers for custom printed panels but most of what they make uses non-printed textiles.
For the custom printed panels they're using an extruded frame system that works like a hybrid of an SEG...
We've been using Endurafab Front FR for about a year now for a client who makes acoustic panels, but after running into countless quality issues Im spec'ing other fabrics.
I just ran a few prints on a sample roll of TVF's DigiPanorama on our HP 560 using the profile off HP's Media Locator and...
I’m running v12 on a Mac and have the same cutter. You just have to activate the opos camera on the cutter itself (I forget exactly how...you have to register the serial number online or something) and once you have the cutter set up in Caldera it will automatically add barcodes and send a cut...
I started manually imposing it InDesign and Illustrator and it was taking so long that I just made it a step and repeat in Caldera, but the cutter took so freaking long to do all of them that I wish I had just taken the time to set it up manually.
Im about to print a bunch (2500) of tiny little rectangular postage stickers.
In a perfect world I could set it up as a step-and-repeat with all of them butted up against each other, use the PDF trim box as the cut contour, and then the cutter would simply have to do a series of long horizontal...
Do you mean tissue/packing paper?
Either way your best best is to order from an offset or flexo printer depending on how much you need printed and if you need rolls or cut sheets.
We’re in a similar boat and Harbor Sales has been super helpful. I hate their website but they’re so much better than Grimco in their product knowledge and customer service. They’re also certified reseller/distributor for SignComp.
