  1. jv33 - Capping stations. When should it be replaced?

    as my post suggests, how would I know the time to replace my capping station? Are there any obvious tell tale signs to see, print quality, tests or indicators to notice?
  2. JV33 ink profile in CJV30

    Different printers will always produce different colour profiles. Yes, you can invest in hardware to do colour matching profiles and build your own profiles to suit, but this will evidently be costly and time consuming. Other's may disagree with me here on the forum but from previous experience...
  3. Changing from ES3 to SS21 ink sets

    Thanks. I'll be sticking with dual CMYK as white is just pointless. IMO. cheers for the heads up re dampers etc, seems like it may be best to stay organised and order ink from OS ahead of time and hold stock.
  4. Changing from ES3 to SS21 ink sets

    Mainly for convenience as I am finding it hard to source ES3 ink from anyone here in Oz, but has anyone done this? Do I need to completely flush the lines with ES3 solvent then SS21 solvent before switching over the inkset? Are there any other do's & don'ts?

    Does anyone get ES3 ink in Australia? 1 ltr bottles I am after
  7. JV33 hardware question

    Has anyone replaced the castor wheels under their trolley for a JV33? As it's kinda hard to look at the bottom of the castor assembly while the printer is on there, I'm somewhat flying blind. However, it did look like it was only a 3 screw fixing to the foot. Is this right? If I cant find a...
  8. Gaming Trailer Graphics

    We have a rule here that the client must provide any outside artwork for use. This goes for any copywrite material. If they choose to get it from google (and it is print quality), that's on them. They sign an artproof stating that they are the owners of any associated artwork. If they want us to...
  9. Question Perforated labels

    There's some "Tamper" vinyl out there https://shop.spandex.com/en_AU/materials-gerber-edge-films-cartridges-accessories-gerber-edge-materials-edge-speciality-films/gerber-security-label-stock/p/l98 or https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/d/b40071766/ I know there is one that breaks apart if it is...

More directly towards beer tap decals. when creating die cut 75mm dia (3 inch) labels, approx how many mls of resin/gel are you allowing for per badge? we're starting off at the very novice level of creating these for customers and...
  11. Yet another Cutting Master 4 issue. Please help!

    Not layers or any settings issue. I ran through all these, with no luck. I eventually removed cm4 totally, reinstalled, updated firmware and reinstalled drivers. This (for now) has sorted it for me.
  12. Yet another Cutting Master 4 issue. Please help!

    Pease help me before I loose the little hair I have left on my head. I'm using Cutting Master 4 with Illustrator CC 2017, and up until last week, it's been fine. Now when I send a job to Cut & Plot, the entire image dissapears as soon as the actual "Cutting Master" window opens. I mean when I...
  13. Need Help How to mount a sign to a rock

    6mm ACM? That will never last. Unless you mean 6mm solid aluminium stud fittings are best, but aluminium welds are softer than stainless. If you only need to glue it, look for a product called Tennax. It's a 2 part epoxy made especially for stone like sandstone etc.
  14. Need Help Setting up profile cutlines for Graphtec cutter, printed using rasterlink

    Thanks, I was using SignCut pro 1, not Cutting Master. And I couldn't get the rego marks in there. After switching to CM4 to create rego marks, I kept getting the HP-GL error. It wouldn't find the rego marks and just a huge mix of issues following. Found out that switching from HP-GL to GP-GL...
  15. UV LED Printing ADA signs

    Avoid the 1200 X 900 bed from DCS. We had one of the first ones they shipped to Australia. And it was plagued with problems. Had to give it back. For the money, I could have bought a second hand Arizona that delivers non stop.

  18. Software Help Legacy versions of Onyx Production House - link here

    We've had no issues in the past running a legacy product until I purchased an additional printer. Finding an update for the RIP I had sorted it out easily. That saved me about $2K.

    Hi all, I hope this post may help some people with their issues with Onyx. If you are after legacy copies of Onyx, then go here: https://onyx-rip.de/support/download-onyx/ It's in German, but the google translator sorted it out perfectly for me.
