I'm wondering why you described all the 'dedicated' workstations, then immediately said they are all networked and interchangable?? And what are you using NOW? Anyway... we use Flexisign, because it's an industry standard and it works for us.

Slammed here. Can't use my remaining vacation days because we're too busy.

Ok I will admit, back before the advent of aqueous and latex printing (solvent being pretty much it), lamination wasn't THAT necessary. Most laminated products were car wraps and permanent exterior signage (I'm speaking of my experience from about 1995 - 2010, where I ran Mimakis and old HP...

I get many of those...I just return the roll and get a new one. I got a BRAND NEW roll of 3M Laminate the other day that looked like the whole thing was bent in half. But the box was fine. Had to have been damaged at the factory.

I LOVE sign shops that make bad products. The customers that use them come to us eventually.

Really? Interesting. Adobe stuff is one of the few things I can count on that doesn't crash or give me any headaches.

Not sure how you got that out of his question...where did he say "laying decals on banners"?

The 5xx series will let you know when a profile needs calibration...I assumed the 3xx series did the same.

We've found cheap semi-gloss paint is the easiest to stick to. It's the expensive stuff with additives for repelling stains and marks that tend to reject any adhesive vinyl. But if you have your choice before they even paint, NO paint is the best option. Primed walls are great for graphics. Make...

General consensus....OS and programs on SSD, file storage on HDD. BUT...they're getting bigger and cheaper, so not a bad idea to go full SSD.....just have a backup always writing to an HDD, preferably external.

He LITERALLY said " I want a 24in cutter equal or better than the one I had go down".

Try laminate...

Right click anywhere on the top of the screen in Flexi under the menu headings. There will be a list where you check which toolbars you want to use. Then you can move them arrange as you wish. Also depends on which workspace you wish to use. Under FILE, drop down to Workspace. It's probably on...

Exactly. Get in good with a Rep, and when you notice a price is too high, call them! Same with any other vendor. I've had multiple items reduced, and items that generally are low stock, they've beefed up inventory for us.

I do similar stuff daily with no issues. It has to be a calibration issue with the plotter. Do you run your cutting with OPOS barcode? It's about 99.9" spot on for us. If I ever have an issue that it is off, it is usually a problem with the material bunching up or something while cutting. It's...

This is why I have wanted to start a petition to have all laminate manufacturers make laminates at LEAST 1/2" narrower than the media. Even maybe an inch....54" media = 53" laminate. That way a minimal skew isn't going to cause that dreaded overhang of laminate halfway down the print. I mean...

may have fixed it...we'll see

So suddenly this morning, I loaded a new roll of print vinyl on the 560. Went through the usual steps....when it was initializing, the head carriage moved as it usually does to scan the material for size. Well it returned and threw up a message saying "move the material 586.something mil. to the...

Not an issue, we do lots of it. We did an entire industrial park, all the building signs are full 4'x8' brushed silver acm with standoffs

Avery 2903, 2923 (both have air egress). Briteline Duration vinyls form Grimco have no printing on the back either. We have customers that specify no printing on the back so we use them too.
