  1. Circle sticker issues

    I had a Print/Cut 64" Roland VS, and the alignment would be perfect on the left and right sides, but off in the middle. I found when I turned the heat down as low as possible, the print cut alignment was 99% more accurate because the heat was not shrinking the vinyl. I now have a Print/Cut UV...
  2. Looking for help in deciphering this coloring code

    If the Colors.pdf file is their official corporate colors, they list all the conversions for you. HEX, RGB, CMYK, HSL, Pantone, RAL. Just match it up to the CMYK and tell them you used the values they supplied.
  3. Circle sticker issues

    The industry standard for flexographic and offset stickers is a 1/8" thick boarder, die cutting in the middle to leave you with 1/16" on either side. I realize this is not a flexographic press, but I have also had 3 different Roland's, and I find it easier to say upfront that the standard is a...
  4. efi Jetrion press with xaar 1001 printheads question

    We have a Jetrion 4000, those are what Jetrion likes to call Jet outs. There are a few things you can try, but you will most likely need to replace the cyan print head. Or, if the job you are currently printing does not require the full print width of the press, you can add a margin in Fiery XF...
  5. Question Mimaki UCJV300 Clear & White Ink

    I've only had the printer since January, so I don't have any personal experience yet with UV Clear outdoors. From what I hear, it can be used outdoors, but does not last as long as lamination.
  6. Anyone have or know where to get this texture chart?

    Anyone have a vector copy, or know where to get a printable copy of this texture chart?
  7. Just In Sheet Yield Nesting/Imposition Calculator

    You could add a label gap to this calc, for space between die cut labels, 3" x 3" square plus a 1/8" gap before the next 3" x 3" square, or Eyemark/Crop gaps as Mimaki can have crops around every individual label or a group of labels.
  8. Wanted 64" Laminator with Heat Assist and Take up reel

    Looking for a basic 60" to 64" Laminator with heat assist and take up reels for liner and finished product. Located near Toronto, Ontario.
  9. Gold foil printing on adhesive vinyl

    We can do inline roll to roll digital printing and Cold Foiling, but for 500pcs at 3" x 3" it's probably not worth the cost. I have seen another technique with small sheet feed plotters, the plotter knife is replaced with a heat pen, and a sheet of foil is taped to the material, and the heat pen...
  10. Roland Take System Tricks??

    I saw this handy trick on Instagram, I haven't tried it yet, but I probably will! https://www.instagram.com/tv/CZQF58lj69-/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
  11. Software Help Layered Print in RasterLink 6 plus

    Thanks! I'll try RL7 next week! Have a good weekend!
  12. Software Help Layered Print in RasterLink 6 plus

    The description says it has new variable data features, which I would be interested in. Can I run both and 6 and 7 at the same time, or does 7 replace 6?
  13. Software Help Layered Print in RasterLink 6 plus

    Thanks! It's visible after updating. Have you, or has anyone here tried RasterLink 7? My tech recommended I stick with RasterLink 6 but I am not really sure why?
  14. Software Help Layered Print in RasterLink 6 plus

    Hey, I watched this PDS Equip video on youtube about layered printing on a UCJV300, in the Composition tab he has the option to [Pull back after Print] @1:44 in the video. I have RasterLink 6 Plus 2.1 which seems to be the latest version available for download, but when I try to do the same...
  15. Question Mimaki UCJV300 Clear & White Ink

    I do have another question about Clear. If I have Multiple jobs, about 5 different small PDF's 2.5" x 2.5" each, and I want to print 15 to 25 copies of each at once to save media, all 5 PDFs will have a 100% glossy coat. Is there an easy way to do this? or do I have to make 5 special clear...
  16. Question Mimaki UCJV300 Clear & White Ink

    Figured it out. It was the "clear requires 600x1200 resolution profile." that was the problem. I had to make it the clear plate in Illustrator because I wanted multiple prints of different Clear % values.
  17. Question Mimaki UCJV300 Clear & White Ink

    So, I've only had my UCJV for about a week or 2, and I have not used the clear or white yet. I've watched several videos on how to create special plates in ReasterLinks which is fine, but you can only choose whole image or valid pixel, and an ink coverage percent. I was curious as to what the...
  18. Question UCJV300 Series Print/Cut

    Yes UCJV, corrected thank you! Double sided banners, that's something I haven't even thought about yet! Thankfully I don't do a lot of those, hopefully I can figure out the basepoint before I get an order for one of those!
  19. Question UCJV300 Series Print/Cut

    Recently purchased the Mimaki UCJV300-160. Can any experienced users out there tell me their method of predicting where on the page your print will begin after you "base point" (Sorry Roland Term), basically when you move the X/Y origin of the media and hit enter. After that, how do you know...
  20. New Guy New to Mimaki

    Thanks! I've already done the job by laying it out in Illustrator, but I will definitely try this when I have a similar job to print, which will probably be tomorrow!
