  1. Latex L25500 Question

    Forever? :) I ran about 50k sq. ft. through my L25500 before I changed the printheads. I needed to change one or two of them, but then just decided to do all 6 at the same time. Unless your running in some weird environment or running a bunch of thick media that maybe is hitting the...
  2. Onyx 10.2 crashes when trying to "Submit tiles as seperate jobs"

    Hi Team, Error: Onyx PosterShop 10.2 fails to rip any file that I choose: "Submit tiles as seperate jobs". I knew this was an issue for a while, but I hoped it would magically fix itself. :) • Does anyone know if there is an update or if this is just a persistent bug that Onyx has failed to...
  3. Table Top Wraps Don't Hold

    Arlon good, but prob. overkill I would re-do them with Arlon 8000 & 3M 3645 floor laminate. (maybe 3648 if clarity is an issue) That should be a sure-fire way of fixing the problem. Expensive as s***, but you won't be getting a call back to fix them again. I've used the following with...

  5. Saving as PDF is changing colors all of sudden

    I don't know what the hell is happening.... I've been saving my files as PDF's with the illustrator defaults and it was working fine. (Just started using pdfs instead of eps within the last 3 weeks) Now, for some reason when I save a PDF my colors are coming out totally different then what I...
  6. tablets... what are you using if you have one?

    Ipad mini I got rid of my ipad and got an ipad mini. It's the best $300 I have ever spent. The mini is more mobile as it fits in my back pocket and I can hold it with one hand and still use it. I use it for: - vehicle measurements (draw measurements directly on photo), - taking meeting...

  9. Need Software (Order, time-tracking, estimating, etc.) - Cloud based

    I'm looking for any suggestions for software for our company. I came from a sign shop that used Cyrious, which worked well for our needs there. Now I am looking for something similar, but cloud-based. About Us: We are a custom fabrication shop that designs custom displays, vehicle...
  10. took the plunge and upgraded to cs6.

    Upgraded to the standard (2 seats) cloud license. I too love it. Plus you get the entire Adobe Suite for like $30/mo (upgrade) or $50/mo normally. I'm very happy they finally switched to a subscription service instead of purchasing full suite every year. Getting used to some of the new...

  13. how do you hold up your material roll?

    I use those "Sooper Clips" from Grimco or Fellers. I kind of felt like a tool buying them, but I don't have time to screw around making my own. They actually work well for almost everything (except full rolls of banner). Just buy them and move on to your next Signs101 question. :)...
  14. Basic color question - RGB & CMYK assets in same files

    FYI - The AI colorspace is RGB. I did try changing the colorspace to CMYK as well as RGB without any I always work in CMYK, but obviously I'm open to suggestions. This seems like one of those things that I should just know, but I must of slept through that lesson somewhere. Actually, I use to...
  15. Basic color question - RGB & CMYK assets in same files

    Yeah, yeah I need to learn color profiling, blah blah.... (spare me) Anyway, I have an AI file with spot colors and a RGB file (.psd) placed in the file. Print using Onyx and choose: "Profiles Off" - Spot colors look good, but image is washed out. Onyx - Profiles ON: get the opposite...
