Sanmar does the same thing essentially. You can get free shipping on $200 or more, but only if the items are not "sale items", which is fairly rare, they try to do some complex shipping formula on smaller orders, if the regular price + free shipping > your total order at sale price +paid...

Are you using www.signs101.com or signs101.com when browsing? Seems to me I had issues with just signs101.com cookie losing my identity before.

The tone isn't as bad as it was about two years ago when I first found these forums. Sometimes it felt like it's just a bunch of old people that are just waiting for the kids to step on the grass so they can run out and scream "GET OFF THE LAWN!", but where a newbie's thread would get like 3...

I usually get my OEM inks from Ordway. I've found it cheaper from a few other places, but Ordway does the free shipping which makes it about the same/slightly cheaper, they also have quick response time, which is helpful since I don't have a sign supply company within 100 miles of me.

Any restitution for the lost ink and media?

Did your nozzle check/test print come out clean for the black head? Depending on your art setup, you may be getting a rich CMY mix producing a faux black. When printing, does it make the motions like it's trying to print the crop marks, but doesn't? Most notably is the speed difference...

Contour with 2 steps, break contour group apart, ungroup all, then Arrange, Shaping, Combine This will make it so the middle area is "knocked out". If you have a colored background the color will now show through on the background. If you do not want any color, you can change the middle area...

I get around 4-5 megabit, about 1 megabit up. Being out in BFE I'm thankful we're not on dialup though, there is literally 70 miles of nothing (except the Bonneville Salt Flats and some mountains) in a radius around us. My friend in Vegas is getting their 50 mbit connection, sometimes I'm...

As a former programmer, his comparison is flawed. I would charge someone extra if they asked for a change to the software I developed, and there were generally two forms of applications I would make: 1. Applications made specific to a client's needs and only that client 2. Applications made...

Unfortunately I don't have any real Windows 7 experience to troubleshoot it directly. Try to run Versaworks in compatibility mode, if that still doesn't work, then check the queue files manually. The queue files are stored by default in: C:\Program Files\Roland...

I usually use 4over for my business cards and know they do magnetic business cards. Haven't ever ordered em, but know they're rated for indoor only (not UV stable), but most people put em on fridges, not cars.

My mother handles the bean counting for our business as well as a few other businesses. For Payroll specifically she uses a check program/payroll program called VersaCheck for two companies. Versacheck has since been bought up by Intuit, so unsure how much longer it will actually be around...

One final stab that I can think of: Are you using your old exported EPS files from your old Corel to bring back into Versaworks, or are you bringing in the CDR files and re-exporting them on the new machine? If you're using old CDR files, the default EPS export settings may not work, and I...

That font! It looks like Reverse ARister Hucklebuck!

Because DVD's are inferior, my T2: Judgment Day Laserdisc looks much better than my Platinum Collector's T2: Judgment Day (or some such old laserdisc argument). The Blu-Ray version however, may be giving it a run for its money. Einstein once said, "there are only three things infinite in this...

Hate to ask the "dumb" question, but under Cut Controls, you're set to "Print and Cut", or "Cut" and don't see the ants, correct? Print only will not show the ants at all. Seems that whenever my CutContour spot color buggered up in my graphics file and Versaworks wouldn't recognize it...

I'll take the current driver issues today over the driver issues of the past without a second thought. I still have a few pieces of equipment that run specifically off of MS-DOS and/or Windows 3.1 because people didn't bother writing drivers to exit protected mode for Windows 95 and so on. It...

Need a few more details, but my off the wall guess would be just color profiling issues. What software are you using and what formats are you exporting to? Oftentimes I will export EPS from Coreldraw. If I need exact colors, I will use my pantone chart, if I'm kind of going for a...

Here's the John Madden of the Scenario. "Well, what you have here is a typical football scenario. The router's job is to route the stuff the operator operates it to route and then BOOM! It'll turn your square into a circle, but the router needs to be sure it's routing in the shape that the...

One of the things that helps immensely is a "PE disk", or Preinstalled environment, also sometimes known as a "live cd". It's basically a bootable operating system with installed apps. As long as the network card drivers aren't too vague, most installs will already have them, then it's just a...
