  1. Acrylic - full print application tips?

    That was what I was guessing I'd have to do. Acrylic is so darn sticky that my little tests weren't working very well. Solid print, no light shining through.
  2. Acrylic - full print application tips?

    I've got a chunk of acrylic for a project, not quite 4'x8', and it needs full graphic print on it. I don't have a flatbed to print directly on it, so I need to apply vinyl to it instead. What's the best way to apply a large print to this, and what's a decent material for our eco-sol printer...
  3. Onyx postershop unable to read size from printer

    I backed up the printer settings in Onyx by going to file>manage printers, and clicked "create prnInst". Then uninstalled Onyx, all the epson stuff, and went through my drives to make sure there was nothing left from either program. Reinstalled Onyx first, and installed the printer drivers...
  4. Onyx postershop unable to read size from printer

    It's a big issue for me, I have different materials and sizes I print on pretty much every day. I just can't figure out why it's happening now when it hasn't been an issue for nearly a year. I've tried deleting the printer in Onyx, and even deleted files in the Onyx folder. I think I'm down...
  5. Onyx postershop unable to read size from printer

    Now it won't read the material even. Something weird is going on with Onyx communicating with the printer. I don't really want to reinstall everything if I can help it...
  6. Onyx postershop unable to read size from printer

    Postershop 18.0 If I hit "manual update", the size doesn't change. If I go into configure page sizes and query printer, I get a popup saying "unable to retrieve page size from printer"
  7. Onyx postershop unable to read size from printer

    yeah, I've restarted onyx, my printer, and my computer today. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Today is the first time I've run into this issue.
  8. Onyx postershop unable to read size from printer

    New problem today between Onyx and my Epson S80600. I keep getting an error in onyx saying "unable to retrieve page size from printer" when Onyx queries the printer for the media type and size. I haven't changed anything other than different rolls of material today. The printer displays the...
  9. Onyx Cut-server double line?

    This looks like it'll fix it. Although it's an annoying way to fix it. I'm also trying making the stroke as close to 0 as possible without being 0, to see if it'll double cut or anything. It's definitely cutting both sides of the stroke, or that seems to be the issue anyway. I can't figure...
  10. Onyx Cut-server double line?

    Our layouts are created in-house, and I'm using the .eps files to print. I've dug through the files in Illustrator and can't find a single difference in the cutpath layer in any of them, and there's nothing else in the file that has lines where the cutpaths are. It seems odd that only some of...
  11. Onyx Cut-server double line?

    I just ran a file through Onyx postershop, printed on my Epson S80600, and sent to my Summa S2T160 through cut-server. It had 7 different files on it, and at least 5 of them double cut with a tiny offset, so they're ruined. I can't find anything different in the file setup, they were all...
  12. VS540 Can't find all the crop marks

    8519 is a Luster right? Could it be that the sheen of the laminate is throwing off the sensor looking for the marks? One thing you could do is take black material and plot out the same shape and size as the crop marks, then place them over the top of the printed crop marks after you...
  13. XR-640 ink dumping or draining into waste bottle. HELP

    Cap tops are super easy, they're just held in by the retaining clips that pop right off from the front. Dampers can be a bit more tricky, as you can break the stems on the heads off if you're not super careful.
  14. Printer choice

    I got most of mine through the Epson Edge dashboard that can be installed with the printer.
  15. Printer choice

    Nice! Hope it works out for you as well as it has for us! It was nice to meet you.
  16. S40600 ink cart NOT empty

    The 80600 recirculates ink very well it seems, especially compared to our Rolands. It doesn't dump ink during a circulation, it re-cycles it. I've emptied ours a couple times in about 8 months, but I've swapped between metallic and white a few times as well, which dumps a bunch.
  17. Summa S2 160T Registration WAY Off.

    I've got an S2 T75 and rarely have issues tracking in winplot. When I do have issues, I double check that nothing was scaled between the print file, and the cut file in winplot, and I'll also double check the length calibration on the plotter for the material I'm cutting. That's about my only...
  18. Reducing vibrations from train tracks

    these use a laser for height detection, and my rep was concerned with the laser getting knocked around and throwing things out of whack. I don't really think it'll be a huge issue, but would like to lessen the chances of anything happening.
  19. Reducing vibrations from train tracks

    We're looking to buy a new UV printer such at the Mimaki UJF series, but we're worried about vibrations from the train tracks right outside our shop causing issues with the print quality or height detection systems. The trains switch tracks and couple cars on the tracks there, and it makes for...
