  1. Watch this-Transparecy layers and Versaworks

    You could say that again
  2. Black nozzle issues - misdirection

    Have you tried to print solid black bar 50" wide by 3" high and just let that black fire away and try to clear itself?
  3. Getting all the ink

    LOL, you got that
  4. Getting all the ink

    Nice, your way may be even better or a combination of both.
  5. Getting all the ink

    That's cool, not sure what risk or what service call you are talking about.
  6. Getting all the ink

    20 grams is about 5 percent of the cartridge. While I agree with "spending dollars to save pennies" is useless. I only took the time to pass on this info because it is as easy as cake, once you know the numbers. Putting an ink cartridge on a scale it pretty easy, I hope that I am not sounding...
  7. Getting all the ink

    Correct, and I did waste some ink the first time just to see what an empty cartridge should weight. Instead of wasting all 4 colors to prime up, in this case, magenta. I created a 50" by 2" file that was 100% magenta and printed it until I had magenta flowing again--it was primed on the 3rd try...
  8. Watch this-Transparecy layers and Versaworks

    Killer video, after watching this video I went straight to a file that I have been having problems with and BINGO it worked first time all I did was arrange the layers right and uncheck "convert strokes to outlines. http://youtu.be/CvoLWXfUFNk
  9. Getting all the ink

    I wanted to share a method that has allowed me to use almost ALL the ink in my 440 cc carts. Out of weekend desperation I needed to finish a job and was out of....you guessed it...Magenta. I had been saving all the empty carts. to recycle so I decided to ignore the printer warning and continue...
  10. Thoughts & Suggestions on Logo...

    Sorry but your choice looks to much like grass to me maybe different colors like shades of tan.
  11. Font ID please

  12. Printing media 101

    If I can ask a basic question,what are you going to be printing,what kind of customers do you have,also remember that you are getting a plotter at the same time,so if you go with 54'' you are getting a 54" plotter also. I will repeat what I said earlier in the post, not all materials will be...
  13. Printing media 101

    Alot of Mactac's are only 54", Dreamscapes wallpapers, some of Oracal's vinyls,ivivid paper has NO 30" material. I am not saying that there is not a solution for everything in 30". I am just saying that you may have to jump around to different manufactures for different things. Just trying to...
  14. Printing media 101

    Hey Colin, I get where you are coming from and will not over analyze it. I will just answer the question you asked. I use Oracal 3651 for most with 210 Gloss laminate as needed. I use Oracal 3551ra with 290 Gloss laminate for long term and vehicle graphics. But I would suggest that you buy...
  15. Mesh banner advice

    I need to produce some 14 Foot by 12 foot mesh banners. I have not produced any in the past and wanted some recommendations on material. I se Fellers offers a couple different ones. Any opinions?
  16. Banner Material

    You need to make sure that both sides are printed with margin/crop marks. I usually use a ball point pen to poke thru the banners right at the leading corners on the first side on the banner, flip the banner and set my origin point on those holes i poked. I always make sure that I am right at...

  18. Not sure what to charge

    I never have to give this customer a quote. They tell me what they need, I service the heck out of them, they want to deal with me and see the value of my service and knowledge. It is a great deal and is way I wanted to get some feedback. But the prices are all over the place, but that in itself...
  19. Not sure what to charge

    Have you raised your rates in those 21 years?
  20. Not sure what to charge

    Well guys, I was planning on going with $550.00 for the first van and $450.00 for additional but I think that I will kick it up to $600.00 and $500.00. I have $160.00 just in the special order vinyl. I would rather stay at the shop than charge $250 a van
