    i know on my 560 with caldera, i can run a 3 foot banner with 1" hems on the sides on a 38" roll. you need to do a lot of tricking the machine and the rip into doing what you want. i first started with a custom page size without the automatic margins the printer/rip adds to the hp latex page...

  18. Magnum Magnetics - Magnets "Bubbling"

    yeah, if you're using the magnum mag with the vinyl overlay, the heat will cause the vinyl to warp and seemingly separate from the magnet. haven't seen it in the field myself, but like i said, id know that anywhere from the hour i spent fine-tuning the heat settings to make it actually run thru...
