    I just tell them to open their artwork and zoom in 200-400%, if it looks like 1980's Super Mario then it will print like 1980's Super Mario!
  2. Niagara Falls

    If you stay in the Tourist Area on the Canadian Side it's way over priced for Food, Hotels, and parking. I have never stayed on the American side so I don't know how that compares.
  3. Cut lines missing in Versa Works

    This happens when the cut line is touching the edge of the page/artboard in a PDF. When using PDF's in VersaWorks, make sure your page size/artboard is larger than the cut line, and the cutline is centered on the artboard.
  4. Print & Cut onto Metallic material / smashed glass

    Maybe if you list the software, printer model and cutter model someone will be able to offer better solutions. Using Raster Links, Mimaki's can print a red block around the crop marks and have sensitivity settings for the sensor, also if you have white ink, you can use FineCut to change the red...
  5. Maintaining aspect ratio when resizing objects in Illustrator?

    I tend to use the Transform tool more than click to enlarge, only because I am a perfectionist and I can't stand when an object is 6.5002" when it should be 6.5" wide! That being said, the shift key thing doesn't bother me, but I've never really used Corel for anything other than to convert a file.
  6. VersaWorks Cut

    You would need to load 2 separate files into VW, one with Print and Cut, and one with Perf only. Make sure the page size and alignment are identical in both. Layout both files identically in VW. Print and cut the one, then reregister to do the Perf cut.
  7. VersaWorks Cut

    You could also layout the full print width in Illustrator first, and then print and cut. Be sure to organize the contourcut and perf paths in the layers panel, in the order you would like them to cut.

Printing White + CMYK + Clear in 1 pass WILL BLEED together. You can "thin" the edges of the white so it does not peek out from behind...
  11. Roll stopped rotating, printed in same spot. Now not printing at all

    I had a feed motor error on my Roland VS640 and after a routine replacement of the motor, the print head would not fire any ink at all. This triggered the replacement of several different parts, printhead, fuses, cables, cable card, carriage board, main board, more fuses, etc, just to try and...
  12. Need Help Mimaki UCJV300-160 Headstrike issue

    If the material does not cover all the air holes, put some masking tape over the uncovered holes to help increase the vacuum pressure. Masking tape under the material as well can help determine if it's a static issue, but don't cover the air holes under the material, or poke holes in the mask to...

    That's not the proper tinsel, you can also get anti static string, instead of tinsel. https://fraser-antistatic.com/products/801-anti-static-tinsel/...
  14. What is the QR code on printhead for?

    Some manufacturers use the QR code to store head rank information to be input into the printer at install, but I am not familiar with ValueJet print heads.

    I switched to Mimaki, but I still have 6 packs of Roland sheeter blades. Although the shipping cost from Canada might not be worth it.. Anyone in the Toronto area need some sheeter blades?

  19. Mimaki CJV150 Print Quality

    If 720x1080 is your only option, you need to download some new profiles. Also try printing is Uni-Direction and see if it's better. If it is, then your calibration is off. I print most of my jobs with fine print or details in Uni-Direction, just because I can't be bothered to Calibrate the...
  20. Mimaki CJV150 contour cutting is way off

    You can use Rasterlinks to add several crop marks to a single cut. Rasterlinks will also recognize a number of different cut lines, I use the roland ContourCut as I had a roland previously and was happy that I would not need to update all my old files. Check out PDS Equipment on Youtube, they...
