Have you tried contacting an authorized Mimaki distributor? They actually have prices for their equipment that they would GLADLY share with you.

Welcome! Here is some equipment that might help you. http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=55828 And here is a thread that you might get some interesting information from. It was started by a "window tint" guy just like yourself...

The membrane on the sides of the damper are there to equalize pressures as the head draws ink through them. To use them as you describe is NOT what they are designed for, as though you have done this with some success, some day you may be on here asking "how do I get solvent {eco-solvent} ink...

The fact that you are using Illustrator9 is probably your problem. Illustrator is at least THREE upgrades ahead of where you are. The current Ill. is CS4 I believe for the Mac. This leaves you way behind the curve on using the latest features of Illustrator.

I am not running bulk ink as you are, BUT it would seem to me that you need to check to see IF the dates on your cartridges are old. It sounds like the ink {Yellow} is "thickening up", or losing its viscous-city. I would call my supplier, and get them to send you fresh ink.

Clean JV33 printhead Derek; Give this a try.

Derek: draw the ink through the capping station manually. It is a fairly easy and QUICK way to get the print head clean IF the problem is between the ink cartridges and the print head. There are numerous things that COULD be wrong, but that will possibly get you up and running at least for...

Mark: You need to check your links on the registration page. Most of them seem to be faulty.

At a time such as this kind words and prayers are some of the first things that come to mind as a way of passing on our condolences to those who are left in the shadow of a tragedy such as this. Memorial funds and gifts of money are worthy causes as well, But what must not be forgotten is the...

A sad day indeed! So young, and yet a reality we all will face. My condolences and prayers to those who are left behind. May the peace of Christ rest upon you.

Jill Beans ANYONE? Just a quicky for your sweet tooth.

Not sure how this would work for you but see if this makes sense? make a copy of the entire file. Command/"A". Then Command/ "C". Then Command/"V". Go to the PATHFINDER menu, and with ALL the copied componants selected do the "ADD TO" command { upper line, top left}. Then fill with {any...

Here is how I do it; While text is selected create outlines. { SHIFT/COMMAND/O} on a Mac. While outlines are still selected: {SHIFT/COMMAND/G} ungroups letters. While still selected go to the PATHFINDER menu select TOP LEFT {ADD TO} button and expand. With letters still selected...

I am not sure I fully understand what you are questioning. But if you have created a 'blur" effect such as a drop shadow, there is a LOT of information contained in the file to create the blur so you don't see all the gradations when printing. Therefore, the file is usually very large, and if...

Steve: Just got my down load of the new fonts. AWESOME! I just spent way to much time squeezin' JILLBEAN. I hope my wife doesn't find out.

Lil: I haven't put ANY effort whatsoever into designing a business card for you because... After watching this train wreck, and making several comments to attempt to encourage you to not give up. I have come to another conclusion. You don't seem to be able to get beyond your "I'm a...

Fred & iSign, Thanks for the quick replys. It was just what I was looking for. the thing I kept forgetting was what Doug pointed out about the "background". I was forgetting to make another layer. Couldn't figure out why when I saved the image it kept the white box even after I had erased the...

Is there an EASY way to eliminate the back ground area from a photo so that when it is placed on a different back ground there is NO bounding box that has a white area behind it? I want to take a photo, drop out the back ground, then place it on a gradient area and have ONLY the photo show up...

First thing I would suggest is that you check the locations of the pinch wheels. The sensor on the cutter reads the locations of each of the wheels and will only move left as far as the left most pinch wheel has been set. I have the CG160-fx, and if I forget to set up the plotter with 4 pinch...
