If I don't trim the perf back at least 1/8" and use optically clear strips on the perimeter, I found that the material would lift after a few weeks, and if on tinted vinyl, fail in only a few days due to the heat from the darker tint that's reflecting. In most cases, I'll suggest NOT to use...

I agree, clean the encoder strip, change out the dampers, clean the maintenence station area of any crud build up, and even go over the head meticulously. Only then would I consider a new printhead. I used to get this on my 1617H with the old inks and would be able to save the printhead most of...

I would personally NOT use Beacon's house ink in a 1617H. Only use the Mutoh inks because of the damage they can do to the printhead. I found that I had to make sure the ink card was moved forward and had taped it so it stayed in place otherwise it would shake and shimmy out of place and the...

I would suggest replacing the new damper. You can get one that's bad from the start. Cheaper than paying for that travel time.

Also, because its Flexi 8.5, SAi won't honor it as an upgrade because there were too many versions in-between. Best to do a subscription to version 22 so it supports whatever new machinery you purchase if you don't want to use the software that comes with the Graphtec.

Having worked as a military contractor almost 20 years ago, this is true. Only save for me was that I was hired as a graphic designer and would "template" any PPT presentations before they were sent out and I could also have CorelDraw and Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator on my machine, since I also...

One would think but as the Department already has the badge on at least a dozen of their cars, the differences are a bit glaring. (1) different eagle on top (2) there are 4 bands of entering information, where I need only 3 (3) different artwork. Like you mentioned before, either I need to...

Yes, found some that were close but no cigar. I may have to come with a few alternates and have the Department decide.

Was looking to see if anyone has come across where I could find this same police badge. If I wasn't doing it for a department with an established badge / shield in use, I'd use one I have already. Even pointing me in the right direction to purchase this vector art is appreciated. Help!

In many cases, the head is most likely failing. You clean it and get a good nozzle check, but then the head begins to clog when it hasn't being purged after only a few minutes into a print. A DX-7 is about $2.4k and installation [if you do not know how to do this yourself]. The Epson S80600 is...

Still running Flexi, ver 22 on a perpetual version. Call SAi, and ask the salesperson how to upgrade or purchase a perpetual version of FlexiSign. Upgrading from 19 to 22 for FlexiSign&Print is like $1100 and FlexiDesigner is about $800.

Using ONYX Thrive 18.5 and having a problem with a pdf file. I take an old PDF file that was created over a year ago, open it in AI and delete a part of the artwork. I resave it under a new name without changing any of the presets in the file save. I next open it in OT and see that the color...

I am printing on an HP or one of Mutohs and cutting on a ValueCut 1800 or S-One D160. I never have a problem with it dragging and I also set my registration marks for 4-point positioning, so it only cuts 18" lengths at a time. I find that Oracal is too dark for "their" white and Arlon takes too...

The best color I've used in the past is PMS 375 or 376, depending on the profile you have.

Oracal also makes an Apple Green, although I do not know if it's been discontinued due to pandemic supply.

The back can be done in 3M 983 Diamond Grade vinyl. Note that it is expensive ($300 6"x150' US) and stiff. It can be applied once with no Controltac properties. For something easier for the chevrons, use Oralite™ V92 or V98 read and florescent green. It's a little more expensive ($425 6"x150'...
