  1. VersaWorks upgrade to new Windows 10 computer

    Watch this.
  2. Question Version of versaworks compatible with XC 540 ?

    As far as I know, it's only VW 5.X that will work. Was there something specific with VW Dual or 6 that is not available on VW5? If you are not happy with VersaWorks, try looking at other options like, Flexi, etc. I've never used anything other than VersaWorks with the XC540, it did what I needed...
  3. Subscription Mouse!

    Just wait until they release the first drill with WIFI, it for sure will have a subscription fee!
  4. Subscription Mouse!

    The whole world is going subscription based, maybe we should follow their lead? You want that window graphic? Sure, that will $500 up front plus $39.99/month. What's the $39.99/mo. for you ask? Well your displaying my hard work on your store front for all to see! What if you don't pay the...
  5. Mimaki Replacement gear?

    The large part of the gear has 40 teeth, and the small gear has 20 teeth. Where would I search for this gear?
  6. Mimaki Replacement gear?

    Yeah maybe, I don't have a 3D printer myself. How accurate would they be in reproducing a gear, I imagine it would have the be identical or it would just get chewed up even faster than the original.
  7. Mimaki Replacement gear?

    Does anyone know if you can buy just the large plastic gear for the UCJV300 - [M011578 - Motor All Assy 1] ? I already purchased a new motor, but there is nothing wrong with the old one, it just needs a new gear.
  8. UCJV330 Gloss Curing

    I normally use 44/44% gloss unless they are expecting it to be raised.
  9. Font ID?

    Amazing, Thank you! What's your secret?
  10. Font ID?

    Anyone recognize this font? I tried all of the Identi-Font type websites with no luck.
  11. UCJV330 Pull Back Printing (Multi Layer printing)

    I mostly try to avoid roll back, unless the customer insists on having both white and clear. When doing the design, I will try to keep in mind that the alignment will not be perfect, and do shorter prints so there is less chance of misalignment. The material I use does not have any issue with...
  12. UCJV330 Pull Back Printing (Multi Layer printing)

    I've never tried to print a 2nd pass by using the crop marks, so I don't know how well that works. One thing I know other people will do for the roll back on shorter prints is to take a core and cut a slit in it length wise and insert/pinch the end of the material inside the slit to add some...
  13. UCJV330 Pull Back Printing (Multi Layer printing)

    Yeah, the more overprints you do, the longer it will take. We did charge quite a lot more for the raised print and they were quite happy to pay it. Although when they came back for a 2nd order and we were busy with other jobs, they were not happy when we couldn't rush their order, and they...
  14. UCJV330 Pull Back Printing (Multi Layer printing)

    If there is a pull back before the clear layer, you can print the CMYK at 1 overprint, and the clear layer at multiple overprints. The achieve different heights of clear, you need to set this up in Illustrator, make your clear layer as a seperate file 100% BLACK for the thickest clear parts...
  15. UCJV330 Pull Back Printing (Multi Layer printing)

    I think this one had 5 layers of clear at various percentages. Did this one awhile ago now, so I don't remember.
  16. UCJV330 Pull Back Printing (Multi Layer printing)

    I've had a few mishaps using the red, and the material is too expensive to have any mishaps! Before I started using FineCut, I would cut out white squares of vinyl and stick them to the holo around the crops so I didn't have any chance of miss-cut.
  17. White print on fluorescent Foil

    If you want complete opaque with Mimaki UV you could print White+Black+White+CMYK, maybe you can try the same on Epson?
  18. UCJV330 Pull Back Printing (Multi Layer printing)

    These look pretty good! You could try using the RL Layers tab to adjust the thickness of the Clear Layer, and also the position if it is printing off to one side. How did you find the cut accuracy on the Holographic? I have been using FineCut to fill the crops with white ink instead of red, but...
  19. UCJV330 Pull Back Printing (Multi Layer printing)

    I try not to bleed off the raised prints unless it's a uniform thickness all the way around the edge. You could also try adding an extra cut line in Illustrator over the thicker spots to have the UCJV cut twice in that area. I keep 2 different blades, one for cutting the UV Clear, and a...
  20. UCJV330 Pull Back Printing (Multi Layer printing)

    I think you would have been better off getting a flat bed if you will be printing a lot of white and clear at the same time. Do you have any photos of what you are printing?
