Banner sales have gone through the roof lately and I just realized I'm out of banner tape and I have a rush order that needs to be done tomorrow morning. My order of tape won't be here until tomorrow night. Anyone got an idea for a banner tape substitute. The banner is only being hung on a table...

We are a sign shop that has slowly been growing. Up until now we have done several car graphics but luckily they were all on the smaller scale and applied to flat surfaces on the vehicle. I have had a furniture store approach me about doing the graphics for one of their new delivery trucks...

We have been operating our sign business in our community for 2 1/2 years. A couple of months ago we were approached by our local chamber of commerce about a project that some business owners were getting in on to create a local group that would revitalize the rivers and nature areas here. They...

I have customer who wants to order 300 coriplast yard signs for his construction business. Do I dare attempt to do these as cut vinyl or should I outsource them to someone to have screen printed? I have done yard signs before but the biggest quantity I have done is 20-30 at a time. If...

Having a problem where my cutter won't recognize the printed registration marks on gloss vinyl. It does find the marks on matte vinyl. Same file printed to both matte and gloss. Any ideas??

Bought a used FC7000. It is cutting uneven. Cuts nicely when the head is near the home position. As the cutting head makes it to the middle of the cutter it won't cut at all (I have a bunch of labels stepped across a 30" sheet). It cuts nicely at the home position at a force of 30. I tried...

So what is wrong when your nozzle check looks like this. This is off of a 46 inch Falcon.

I bought a used Falcon awhile ago. There is slight banding so I figured I would try doing a print head adjustment. Have instructions from the person I bought it from. On the last part of the instructions it talks about how you make both heads parallel to each other by loosening a screw on the...

I have a question for you guys. I have a customer asking me to make them a banner that will be 6' x 8'. I have a 48" mutoh falcon so I obviously can't print this all on one sheet. What are your thoughts on seaming a banner together with banner tape on the back side? This is going to be hanging...

Have a customer asking me to do some clear window clings with printed graphics. Haven't done these before. Looking for suggestions on a good material to buy. Will be printing with a mutoh falcon.

Running Flexi Print/Cut 8.6 on the Mac. Figured it was time to properly profile my printer and make some ICCs for the media that I run. For now I have been using some generic ICC's I got off the internet. Made a linearization ICC profile using profile maker. Put it into the ICC folder for...

This may sound like a stupid question but how do you know when a print head has gone bad? I wanted to take the business into a direction where we could starting doing some printed vinyl. I purchased a used 46" Falcon. When I bought the printer it wasn't printing all of the colors. After...

Have a Roland GX 24 cutter that we have suddenly started having tracking problems with on designs that we have cut hundreds of times within the last year. Replaced the pinch rollers and the white cutting strip in the font. After doing so the problems still remain. After some observation it...

I have a Roland GX 24. We have used it a lot over the last year. Today when cutting some detailed designs about 8 feet long the vinyl would walk to the edge after a bit of cutting and would no longer be under the rollers and mess up the cut. Also have noticed that when I can finish the cut some...

I recently purchased a 48" falcon and was having issues with the colors dropping out. I just installed a brand new maintenance station and when I print on vinyl material with the head in the low mode the prints look great. When I switch the print head to high mode to print banners the color...

I just purchased Flexi 8.5 for the Mac. I am printing to a Mutoh Falcon printer. I need to apply a color profile to my prints but I can't figure out how to do it. I have downloaded several .ptf files from several vinyl manufacturers but can't load them. I tried pressing the load button in the...
