  1. Top rated material for heat transfer

    I have a heat press with cap attachment being delivered this Friday. (Thanks to those that helped me make a decision on which way to go. I do believe I found equipment that is a good fit for me.) Now I need to find some good material to print/cut on. I'm using a roland Soljet Pro III with...

  3. Roland start-stop during print HELP!!!!

    So my XC540 does this thing where it prints a bit, stops and than keeps printing, than stops, than prints more and so on. Kinda like a hick-up. I notice it usually happens on larger files. Sometimes the head will actually park itself and than go back to printing. There doesn't seem to be any...

  5. Welders

    I know this has been brought several times before but just for fun, I thought I'd revisit the subject. I'm considering a banner welder for my shop. Must be able to weld hems, pockets and seems. Ideally I'd like something that's free but seeing how's that's probably not an option, I'll settle...
  6. a few concepts

    Hey folks. I've come up with a few concepts for this logo. None of them are complete. I just want to see what you guys like better (or hate more) to see what direction I should be going in. Your advice, input and constructive criticism are appreciated.
  7. T-shirts???

    I'm thinking about buying a heat press for making t-shirts. Can't remember the brand right now but it's 16"x20" with an auto release feature. I haven't looked at many presses but out of the ones I've seen so far, this one looks pretty good and it has the biggest platen. About 1700$ Canadian ...
  8. Need help with static cling

    I'm using Rite-media white static cling to print "dash-cards". they're about 3x4" and get mounted to the inside of your car windshield for identification purposes. Here's the problem. Ink residue sticks to the glass when you remove the cling. Not good. especially when you have a few hundred...
  9. Wall graphics not sticking.

    I have a roll of ORAJET® Series 3628 Movable Wall & Window Graphics Inkjet Media. I printed a few test pieces. The first one is a rectangle print/cut to the edge. The second is the same file with a white border. I installed both pieces on a clean, painted dry wall surface. I wanted to see...
  10. Portable Printer

    I've got a few large site surveys coming up. I was thinking it would be pretty handy to bring along a potable printer with me. You know, take some photos, import to laptop and than print, take measurements, etc... Can anyone recommend a decently priced portable color printer?
  11. Guide me

    My sister in law is putting on this little event and asked if I could help with the logo. Although I'm no designer, I thought I'd give it a try so I could help her out and hopefully learn something in the process. She originally wanted it to say "cake love 2011 vancouver". (1st on the...
  12. Handicap specialty sign

    Ok, true story. One of the painters on our crew recently broke his "ding-dong" during intercourse. Yes this really can happen so be careful. Squirm squirm squirm. He's still off work but I've prepared this sticker for his return. We've been posting them up all over the shop to help welcome...
  13. Interviewing

    I've been pretty much a one man show since starting up my business. I hire a few different installers for certain projects. Usually because I don't have the time to do them myself. This usually works out however it can be expensive. Plus, whenever I'm away from the shop, it means my printer...

  15. What to do with PITA client and a job that has gone south.

    I recently did a big perf window job for a client that runs Yoga studios. I did one of his studios a couple years ago with perf and they loved it. The perf allows for just enough privacy and lets his clients see out the window while practicing yoga. Unfortunately, my installer tried...
  16. Trying to track down some vinyl

    A client gave me a sample of some work done by another company asking if I could replicate it. Stop right there - I already know what you're thinking. Why don't they go back to them? Well, they don't want to go back to them this time because A - they're in a different country and B - they...
  17. Throwing myself to the wolves

    Ok, so I'm not a designer and I have never claimed to be, however once in a while someone asks me to do something for them. In this case, my friend asked for a simple logo design and he provided me with the basic idea. IE - tailpipe with flames. So, in trade for a few beers, I agreed to try...

  19. Profile for Canvas

    I've been using canvas from a few different companies and always try to get the proper profile for the material. I find that all the profiles for canvas look like crap. All the dark colors get lost and usually turn black. Bright colors are usually muted and the overall look is not very good...
  20. Banding only on left side of ProIII XC540

    I recently noticed that I'm getting banding on the left (furthest from caping station) side of my printer and not the right side. I've tried several different medias and it seems pretty consistent. I've also used different profiles including the RIPC and the non-RIPC. The later has better...
