OK so got the printer up and running good but now having all kinds of issues with the arms registration on my plotter.
It is always giving the a out of destination area or scan fail. There has been a couple times that when it will kinda find the first marks then not even be close to the other 3...
So after a massive battle we have finally got your 1324 printing ink. New dampers, new encoder, flushed and cleaned head. So now that we are printing i have loaded the profile for Oracal 1365 and did a a couple test prints. The black looks faded or washed out. I also have a design i printed...
Ok couple different questions here.
1. I am getting very heavy ink no matter the quality setting.
2. I am getting what looks like trash in the print?
3. When I bring a file in from illustrator weather it is saves as a ai file or a pdf file the shadows and background are hidden. I can unmask...
My boss wanted to put new dampers in the head before we made the purchase of a new printer to be sure. So new dampers in and now i get error e068. When going into the service mode and test on the encoder for the CR and i get no readout. I have double checked that i did not unhook it by accident...
Well as everyone knows we purchased a used mutoh 1324 from a printing company that closed down. Little did we know that it was stored in a very hot building for around 5 months. After talking to many MANY techs and service centers we were told if they were going to come work on it they would...
So finally got software today and did a year print. Well yellow did not print. Well then we got a lifetime pump error. So we thought maybe that the ink was not in the head so we did an ink refill. Well half way though the ink refill the error light came on but never gave an error. When the ink...
Lets say you have an area that looks like it was ripped. How would i go about making a inside shadow to look like the inside was deep in illustrator. I can get the sahdow from the top by doing a drop shadow that is blurred but how would i make the shadow come up from the bottom. Thanks
I can...
Sorry if this has been asked but let say a truck is metallic black or something besides white. Is there an easy way to fade to the factory car color. For instance there is some sort of fade.
Here is a image for reference.
None of these are mine.
Also anyone wrapped an avalanche with the lower...
What are you guys using to design vehicle wraps and to design stickers and so on.
I have alwasy created stickers in illustrator but that has always been single color or layered vinyl but we have also added in digital printing coming soon.
I have been told to use all illustrator and i have been...
Not sure if this is where this would need to be. We have been buying materials from sign warehouse and the service and pricing has been ok but we are in the market for a new supplier since we are adding digital printing to the mix. We have been talking to fellers and so far talking to them they...
I am looking at possibly printing and cutting magnetic material. I would be using a vj-1324 and a ve-q54. I know they make a stamp to round the corners of the sign but what about all the straight cuts. Just use a type of rzr blade and straight edge?
Also any advice on what magnetic material to...
Not sure how to word this so everyone can understand. Lets say i just finished printing 100 stickers in 10 rows wide and 10 rows tall.
Now i am contour cutting them out. Without a large cutter how would you go about cutting all the stickers straight and the same size. I know i can use a large...
Have a computer question. We are building a new building that is away from any of our internet or phone lines. We are trenching a 250 Ethernet line so we can plug into our router in the main building and have a internet connection on our computer in the new shop. Now with that being said the...
Well i have been doing solid vinyl for a pretty long time now but the pricing aspect for this material is a little easier than the complexity of digital printing. I mean i know some of it is straight forward like the the digital media vinyl cost per sq ft and the laminate cost per sf but when it...
Looking for anyone who prints wraps and or decals with this printer. Looking for a reference to what material you use when doing this type of work. I know it would be different material for wraps as it does in stickers and the wrap material can vary depending on the application but i am looking...
Well i bit the bullet and purchased a large plotter, printer and laminator. My main interest at first was to do digital stickers and so on but before i even received my equipment i had some request to do wraps. Well here is where i am stuck is in the layout of the graphics to be able to make...
As soon as i hit sent the pen or the blade will drop and make a small cut about an 1/8 inch long . Just a straight line same spot every time. . I have attached a pic of it next to the bottom of the H with a marker so you can see it. The image is just a green marker to show the small line better...
I am looking at maybe purchasing a procut servo 4800 from cutterpros.com
Has anyone ever used one of these.
I am also considering a vinyl express q30 but the price is a lot more but yes i know a better plotter.
This is just about the procut plotter for the time being.
