  1. Artic Gbc Laminator Problem

    The stop button led is lit yellow. When I press run, reverse, or the foot pedal the green led lights up until I take my finger off of the button while the stop button still stays lit yellow. I can hear a clicking inside near the control panel when I press the buttons almost like a relay. No...
  2. I Have This One But What Is It?!!

    I have never used wordmark.it, but this is great. So many times I know I have the font, almost know the name of it, but still realize almost remembering it doesn't help me get the job done. Very helpful.
  3. What's the best heat transfer vinyl for T-Shirts?

    Thermoflex Plus. Doesn't feel like paper at all.
  4. Software Help Rasterlink 6

    Perfect. I am used to roll printers not flatbeds and also Rasterlink 6 is new to me as well. Thank you. I will email you.
  5. Software Help Rasterlink 6

    Will do. I just had the training on Tuesday. It is amazing. I have been using the generic Mimaki profiles with success so far. I had some Synaps Om retractable banner that I couldn't solvent print. It came out perfect on the flatbed. Also, do you set up bleeds in the art or actual size? If so...

    We just got a jfx200-2513 and I haven't had time to face this situation ,but would greatly love to hear the outcome as well. :)
  7. Bubbles When Layering

    I layer vinyl in the shop. This is what I do for good results... Mask the top layers, apply them to the base layer with Rapid Tac 1 application fluid and have a towel close by to immediately dry the backing paper off so it does not wrinkle. The bubbles are from not pressing the squeegee hard...
  8. Contour cut and photoshop

    I normally save as a .png with transparent background from Photoshop and then open in Flexi and contour. 99.9% of the time it comes out perfect.
  9. Question RSC-5500H Laminator and Oraguard Reverse Wound.

    I do not know where the manual is for this off hand. It is brand new and I have Oraguard reverse wound laminate. The roll I had before was not reverse wound and it was fine. In the past I had an old laminator and I could use reverse wound and regular without issues. I am starting to think it is...

    Still not sure if this is large enough for what you are doing, but it may help. High Resolution Google Map for printing - Alvi Pixels
  11. Who's the Bigger Problem?

    Oh this is gettin' good! Love to hear all sides of this.
  12. Who's the Bigger Problem?

    Home-based business cannot manufacture in most counties. How are they operating out of the garage? I have equipment at home too and would do something for a friend, but I sure wouldn't want to be doing uninsured installs and breaking the county rules. I believe as Americans, we should pay our...
  13. Do you like your profession?

    100% love signs. Amazing. So many aspects of it. Nothing like handing someone a sign or after installation to see them pleased with it. If I die making a sign I will be happy as long as its not in Arial.
  14. Who's the Bigger Problem?

    Some shop at Walmart, some shop at Gucci. If you have a Gucci price, you better have a Gucci product.
  15. License Plates

    Dye Sub always looks top notch, but you still have some time into it. Vinyl/Lamming/Applying and Trimming shouldn't take that long unless you have more than a couple hundred.

  17. Vinyl not sticking

    Maybe you are around the collar of the shirt and it is not pressed flat?
  18. Cutting Magnetic Circles

    Never thought of the white side down. Thanks. Can't wait to go to the shop today and see if this works.
  19. Cutting Magnetic Circles

    I took a job for 30 6" circles. I came up with this. A circular glass cutter with an x-acto mounted to it. Works great. I have never used the plotter to cut magnet and don't want to damage the blade that I have. Just everyone's thoughts, how would you attempt this?
  20. VENT - Things that annoy you in the print industry.

    Had a customer wanting a few hundred decals. Told her it was $244. She said great price. I will take 10,000. I went to take payment and realized she thought I meant $2.44.
