I have been watching this site for many years. Sometimes I think Gino is a jerk, sometimes I think Gino is a genius,
But I will say this, GINO doesn't pull punches and calls it like it is. He is one of the true professionals on this site.
If you want to be a PROFESSIONAL you will have to...
Another 15 year old SP300. Replaced 1 head and 1 pump! !5 years and this printer has paid for itself many times over.
My wife thought that I was crazy for buying it, now we couldn't be in business without it!
THANKS EVERYONE!! For spending your time and effort to help me out. You made me realize that I have some serious storage problems. I do have an auto backup external 1 tb hard drive but have never had to pull anything off of it.
Springtime in the Northeast, been crazy busy as usual. Not much...
No I haven't a memory check..? Not sure what you mean by that. Yes some have been used a lot. Some are nearly full and are getting old.
Should I be replacing them after xx years?
So upon further investigating I've found that only 2 ( of 9 ) of my flash drives have some of these files that won't open. Total of 18 files on my hard drive won't open.
Right now I am concerned that I might have something that may effect other files on my hard drive and I may loose more...
Thanks for the offer. I tried to upload an .fs file and got the message that it was not an allowable extension.
Thank you, I have downloaded a couple of these to my hard drive and was trying to work off of that.
These are (.fs) files. Flexi Sign files that have only Flexi fonts in them.
I have shut the computer down and restarted, no difference. The files on some flash drives won't open.
I am finding dozens of Flexi files that are saying "File Format is not supported" on many of my flash drives.
I don't know why this is happening.
These files contain hundreds of hours worth of work. I am panicking over this as I am going to need some of these files soon. Seems very random...
I have been in the same boat ( and sometimes still am). I started hand lettering in the mid 80's. For 20 years I worked full time at a heavy equipment dealer and did my lettering part time. 95% of my lettering was trucks aand heavy equipment.
Now 30 years later, I've moved to the...
Mine is also set to 29 x 600 in the main page. But if you go into "panel perimeters" and then under "tile settings" there is an input for length ( and width) . That is what keeps going back to a default of 50". Anything over that length it see's 2 panels and leaves around 1/4 " gap between...
This is driving me crazy. I have Flexi 10, w / a Roland SP300. When I try to print a long layout the Production Manager in Flexi somehow automatically is set to 50" for length.
I did it again this morning and started printing a 7' banner and forgot to go into the Panel perimeters and change...
I have a customer that want's me to reproduce the sign on his building in a smaller version to bring to trade shows.
He wants something lightweight and durable. He wasn't really happy with .040 aluminum or Luster Board type materials.
I was thinking of 3/8" or 1/2" PVC but have never seen or...
Hmmm, you may have touched on something there. I wonder if a light compound would work on removing a coating on glass, Again I might be leery about using a compound on a painted surface because its possible to leave scratches or swirl marks.
The idea of having a professional detailer take a...
Ceramic coatings are not Supposed to be used on glass, doesn't mean that they are not.
This is a New ( pre owned ) vehicle for this customer. He doesn't know the history.
But my question still stands, if it were a ceramic coating on the doors would there a special way to clean the doors to...
This seems to be a fairly new issue with applying vinyl. I've heard about the Hydrophobic coatings that are being used on vehicles now ( sometimes called CERAMIC coatings?) and I think that I may have run into my first issue with it.
I am having an issue with vinyl not sticking to the glass on...
I guess it not a silly question judging from the responses. So #28.
I have spray bottles from a company called Well Worth. I bought them off a Mac tool truck when I was working with Heavy Equipment. I have been out of that business for 13 years and still have a couple of them left that work...
Do you mean that the print is distorted? If so I'm not really seeing it.
Or is the grey-ish looking sections that your talking about? Is the vinyl itself distorted?
( Can't tell if that's a reflection )
If it is the grey looking areas , I've never encountered or seen anything like that.
I need to use a font called "Cachet" . I can find it on font websites BUT, they want $50 for EACH style.
There are 16 different styles! I may only need 3 or 4 but its still a lot for ONE font.
i.e. Bold, Italic, Light, ect.
So my question is. Is it normal to spend $200 or more for a...
