  1. Which Hybrid ???

    I've been using two (2) Mutoh VJ1627H over the past 6 years without a problem now that the ink has been upgraded. I print on wood, pvc, dibond, coroplast as well as roll banner and vinyl for wraps. It may be slower than it's newer counterpart, the VJ1627MH, but it's been a workhorse as long as...
  2. Trying to copy this font from a 30 year old t-shirt

    https://www.1001fonts.com/ringlet-font.html It appears to be an old font from the late 19th century originally named Bijou. https://archive.org/stream/specimensofprint00mackrich#page/n53/mode/2up
  3. Help Please.. How was this done?

    Screenprinted. Initially everything but the name of the location which was screened and the name & tagline(s) were screened as needed. I'd look into flatbed printing it and applying clear or shellac for weatherproofing.
  4. Burnout Signs

    This sign I did about 10 years ago. It was done on Oracal 3651G with 290G laminate. It burnt out within 4 years because it 3651G a shelf life of 5 years with an 8 year laminate. With it getting direct sunlight for over ¾ of the day, it was a short term job. It's also better for interior work as...

  6. Difficulty Adhering after Rapid Remover

    Having to take vinyl off of windows from installs that are 8-10 years old, we either just use a torch/heat gun and RR to get the glue off. Once all the glue is off, we clean it once with soap and water as that the best way to neutralize the RR. Next, we use acetone, sprayed in small doses as to...
  7. SignLab 10 saving and loading issue

    I am having a problem with SignLab saving and being able to reload the file or BAK file. I use it on two computers (my 9-5 and at home since it's my personal software) and haven't had a problem with the work computer. At home, I started getting a plugin error with Adobe Illustrator but earlier...

  9. Need Help Adding White Cartridge?

    You'd have to flush the lines and replace them as well as the dampers before running white. It's why the technician usually asks at initial set up whether you will be running white or just CMYK.
  10. Source for "plug replacement" (ink adapter/cart rubber seal)

    Mutoh no longer puts in the adapter plugs with their bagged inks. If ordering from Fellers, Hyers, etc., ask for the plug. My production person up at my second job decided she didn't want to replace them after going over preventive maintenance several times with me and a technician. After losing...

  13. Not Printing what I see on screen

    I'm gonna tell you to open that PDF in Illustrator (if able). Change all the black values to RGB (0, 0, 0) then save. With most eco-solvent printers, if you want a more accurate and vibrant color, print in RGB and not CYMK. I mix the two when opening the file in Flexi and anything full yellow if...
  14. EPSON SURECOLOR 80600 METALLIC PRINTING

    Again, as far as I was told from Epson and Flexi themselves, the S80600 isn't properly supported by Flexi and you are better off using the Onyx RIP that comes with the Epson. Also, when doing artwork in Flexi to be sent through the Onyx RIP, do NOT set up the cut line in Flexi but use Adobe...
  15. Monument sign banner coverup bag

    Find another shop that hems their banners by sewing. Bring the dimensions of the area you are looking to cover, even an AI file of the shape to work with. The company should be able to sew a cover and also sew in rope at the bottom so that the bag can be tied off and secured so winds will not be...

  19. What would cause vinyl discoloration like this?

    Hood graphics receive the harshest environmental treatment. They are facing up which means they get more direct sun rays for more hours of the day, they get heat from the engine.. on top of all that, it's on a black car so that just compounds everything. - Texas_Signmaker I agree with...
