  1. Trying to hit a pms color I have printed before!

    Since the already processed file prints as you expect it, the problem must exist when you are trying to RIP the file. It's a good idea to take screen shots of your settings so that you can duplicate them for future jobs. I don't have Onyx but in Caldera, we set our rendering for spot colors to...

  6. Any opinions on General Formulations AutoMark Concept 230

    We had a sales guy visit yesterday trying to get us to switch to AutoMark Concept 230 from Avery MPI2023. We apply to flat surfaces only, so the air-egress isn't a must have feature, but would make application even easier. I wanted to get some opinions on General Formulations before moving forward.

  10. Good small format decal / label printer?

    The application would be small decals / labels on items like cups and mugs. Up to this point, cut vinyl is the only method being used. What are some good small format (20" or less) printers that can print on vinyl or possibly coated vinyl? Also, what small laminators are good for doing this type...

    We use Caldera and the nesting capabilities save us tons of time and media. We can drag and drop 100s of files onto one page and they auto-rotate.
