Is it possible in Flexi Complete to print & cut multiple jobs side by side at the same time without having to nest them together? I want to print a panel that is 30" x 450" and have it have its own set of crop/cut marks. I then also want to put multiple smaller 25" x 20" jobs on the same 60"...

Purchased a used Graphtec FC8600-160 off FB Marketplace. Been having difficulty trying to print/cut. I have an Epson R5070L Printer using Flexi Complete 24. I sent a test print/cut of 2" x 2" light grey squares with 1" gaps. Using Type 1 crop marks in 4 corners. It's 3 rows of 5 squares...

My Vinyl Express Q54 just dies on me. Mobo fried according to SignWarehouse Tech support. USB device is not recognized on any of my computers. I also have a 24" CE7000-60 Graphtec. So here I am, shopping for a new cutter and I know I want to move up to a 64" but the brand/model is the real...

What do you all use for a payroll system? I've been looking into some of the popular ones: gusto, onpay, ADP, paychex, etc. I'm leaning towards onpay. Does anyone else us onpay or have any feedback to share?

As the title states. I'm looking to build a RIP station that will ONLY have ONYX on it. It will run 1 printer and 1 cutter (for now). I'm looking for information on what computer specs are the most essential to run ONYX the fastest. Obviously time is money, so I want to spend the $ up front...

I'm looking to purchase (2) Epson S80600L's and put them in a room that is about 600 sqft. Our CEO is very concerned with the fumes the printers will put out and make their way into the drop down ceiling and into the office space. Will it be a concern in this small amount of space and what...

Just curious if anyone knows/has tested/share industry knowledge, what the ratio of latex vs solvent ink coverage is per ml? Basically, what I'm wondering is, if I wanted to print say 10 panels (58" x 110") of a solid color in latex and then in solvent, will I use the same, less, or more of one...

We purchased (2) HP800’s back in April 2023 and I can’t stand them. We’ve had BOTH of them already replaced by HP for numerous print quality issues. The new ones aren’t much better. The two new ones we have both struggle with telescoping take up reels, we are constantly dealing with banding...

Who's wrapped one? Customer wants to do a Gloss White vinyl wrap color change on his existing gloss black bike. Haven't a clue as to how long it will take, what needs to be removed, or how to price it. Any suggestions/tips?

A customer of ours is looking to have decals of their company logo put on their molded rubber barriers ( a few thousand of them). Problem is, we can't get anything to stick to them. We've tried IJ39, 3M's most aggressive material, and while it does stick to it, a high wind or some heavy rain...

In desperate need of some guidance. We are trying to mil out some letters to be placed on a sign. We lack the experience to do this particular job but we took the job before the only person with experience left the company. We are basically running this with no experience and the quality...

Just installed a brand new blade thinking it was a dull blade issue. Through cuts just fine in 1 direction, but coming back it wants to drag/pull the material as it cuts through causing the material to get wrinkles and creates a bad cut. Anyone have this happen to them before? I'm not sure...

3M IJ180CV3 printed from our old HP 365 Latex printer using 3M 8518 Laminate. We have a customer that had several vehicles wrapped from us over the past few years. Every one of them are having different issues. Some of them are definitely installer error with fail points, some are bubbles, some...

1) Our Esko X24 tabletop cutter cut lines shift when the table advances and resumes cutting. Can anyone provide any troubleshooting ideas on how to fix? 2) It also struggles/destroys cutting out small letters (~0.5" tall), is the machine even capable of doing small lettering? Or do I just...

3M Lowen Avery Orafol & KPMF Any others? None of our 5 installers have any certifications. Their install times are horrendous. It's apparent that I need to get them trained/certified. 3 of our installers have been doing wraps for 5+ years but have no certifications. They can get the job done...

We are seriously struggling with install times on large jobs. We quoted 80 hour install time and we are currently on hour 119 with 2 panels on 1 side and 1 panel on the other side left to go. I can't babysit them and I found out after both sides had 2 panels installed they never even dry fit...

A customer reached out because their wrapped box truck was vandalized with Sharpie then left to bake in the sun. Any suggestions for how to remove the Sharpie without damaging the laminate/print? tyia

What would you of charged for this design & wrap install? Customer comes in wanting a wrap for their trailer. Wanted the illusion of their car inside (like uhaul does with their roll up door). Everything was custom designed; the character, the flames, the font, etc. 3M IJ180CV3 with 3M 8900...

Our installers really like using this stuff but it's $18/roll. What alternatives/options do you guys use for your wrap installers that works just as good but much cheaper? Or am I just being too cheap with not wanting to spend $18/roll of tape?

Customer said this sign was made 2 years ago by another company and it looks like this. Wants it redone and were thinking of using 4x10 1/2" Luster Board but were not sure if we should print on it directly with our HP Latex R2000 or on IJ180CV3 with 8518 lam and either a) die cut the logo and...
