  1. Pre press artificial intelligence

    What I usually do here is black out the cut area in Photoshop, place the black blob aligned with the sticker graphics in Illustrator, Object - Image Trace (options: Black and White and check the Ignore White checkbox), Object - Image Trace - Expand, then then use the Smooth tool on the resultant...
  2. Pre press artificial intelligence

    in conclusion, AI is a land of contrasts
  3. Latex Printer in apartment?

    Those stair-climbing handtrucks look fancy, especially the motorized ones. But in a way, moving a latex printer would be the least of OP's problems because you only really have to move the thing twice (once up, then again back down). You'd still have to deal with: - cornering (it's lengthy) -...
  4. Need a printer that will be safe and oderless

    The life of a sign printer is a life of danger and smelly chemicals, so...absolutely not
  5. Roland VS-300i not printing yellow!?!

    When you changed the head, did you change the ribbon cables? I had a head go crazy on me after I replaced it - it was firing all over the place. After I replaced the flat flexible cable to the printhead, then the problem stopped.
  6. Source For DX4 Printheads?

    I bought a DX4 from sign-in-china.com earlier this year for my SP-300V and i was very well satisfied with it. It took a long time to get here but it was cheaper than anywhere else. I've heard really good things about solventinkjet.com.
  7. "You'll have to eat your chili with a fork": Managerial Failure 101

    i don't see the problem, just eat it with three fingers like Florida's governor
  8. Latex Printer in apartment?

    no staying power
  9. Latex Printer in apartment?

    even at ~350 without the stand it would be nightmarish to move it upstairs, then once you get it upstairs you have a litany of other issues to deal with (the largeness of it all, heat, power)
  10. Latex Printer in apartment?

    this spec sheet says 216kg (about 476 pounds) and the site prep guide says 207 kg (456 pounds) on page 7 but a ~20-pound difference isn't going to matter when you're trying to move ~450 pounds upstairs and turn corners and such
  11. Latex Printer in apartment?

    216kg or 476 pounds, let's call it 500 pounds. still too difficult to get up a set of stairs and definitely impossible to turn corners in your typical residential apartment
  12. 80's prismatic decals how to make?

    these days you can just buy vinyl with prismatic wheel-turned or holographic flake and print directly on that. no layering or other procedures needed, you just load it up like regular vinyl and blast it with ink, then cut it and you're done. or do like Beta says and print on clear film then...
  13. Latex Printer in apartment?

    this alone makes it a non-starter. 64" 365s are 8 1/3 feet long and weigh 700 pounds. you need a shop to operate heavy machinery like this
  14. Latex Printer in apartment?

    I thought it was 16-20A per outlet/breaker? 200 watts, maybe, but 200 amps...that's an insane amount of power. Site Preparation Guide
  15. Head replacement for Epson SC-T5270?

    Hi, I bought a used SC-T5270 and it worked all right for about a day, then I started getting a 1A39 (printhead error). After pulling the cable on the mainboard, powering it off and then on again, the error went away. I plugged the ribbon cable back in and I was printing again. After a few more...
  16. PerfCutContour Settings Illustrator/Versaworks

    The PDF shows perf and cut lines for me, too You might try upgrading to 5.5.1 and see if that solves your problem
  17. PerfCutContour Settings Illustrator/Versaworks

    That's weird that it's ignoring PerfCutContour but respecting CutContour. If you want to upload your AI file I'll see if I can get it to work in 5.5.1. What are your PDF export settings? One thing about PerfCutContour (once you get it working): you want to try to use rounded edges and not sharp...
  18. Roland vp540 repair

    What's IPC? (edit: Intelligent Pass Control, obviously)
