A couple of our install crew members put some 3" tall flat cut aluminum stud mount letters in a brick wall and it's off center by about 7 inches. :banghead: No one noticed until they installed plaques underneath the lettering. :frustrated:Most of the studs are in the bricks, but most of the...

Update: Starting getting a warning message on the touch screen about head alignment. Ran the automatic head alignment process again and it seems to have cleared up the issue.

Had a banner catch and wad up under the carriage while printing last week on our HP 315. We've been having quality issues since. I've run some head cleanings, and the the automatic head alignment. The "print all test plots" cleared up a good bit after all of those, with some banding on the #6...

Got it. Granted I don't fully understand RIPs and I believe it was more of a vernacular misunderstanding that anything else. My labels of the software were based on mtpzone's suggestion, "Create small print/cut job in flexi and send it to the printer but DO NOT CLOSE the FLEXI RIP window"...

Definitely sent it from Flexi, and NOT from PM. She left the RIP window open in Flexi and after it failed after the barcode procedure, went to the Flexi RIP window, changed "send:" to "Contour Job Only" and clicked send from that same Flexi RIP window, it again went to the same "wrong" place on...

Update: (I wasn't in the office when it happened) It happened again Thursday after I left. The production person said they'd left the Flexi RIP window open, changed it to output "contour only" but it still tried to look in the wrong location. I'd really hoped that was the solution! Oh well, back...

This makes sense. Thanks for the tip, mptzone! I will let production staff know to be sure and leave that window open on ALL print/cut jobs and report back next time this issue arises.

It seems software related to me, rather than an optical or feed issue. The marks appear to be consistently spaced every time, meaning none seem to be in the "wrong" place. When it happens, the sensor overshoots the mark every time, by seemingly the same amount every time and starts looking for...

Thanks for the response. We've tried flipping and loading it with the same result. We pretty much never put them back on a roll. I don't think it's a feed issue, because it consistently overshoots the mark by about 4 to 5 inches, but the prints aren't distorted. It often happens on the second...

We have an HP 315 and an HP Latex 54 Plus Cutter using Flexi. When doing print/cut procedures, we occasionally seem to have an issue with the cutter reading the 2nd registration mark. Reads the barcode just fine, then reads the fist registration mark just fine but it will start to look in the...

This, except you actually only need to select both items, then single click on the item you want to set as the "key" item, then use the align feature you need. You no longer need to actually choose the "Align to Key Object" button.

I dunno the answers to the questions, but this thread made me remember a thread from not too long ago where someone converted a printer to do DTF. I found the thread, started by Smoke_Jaguar, perhaps it will help you find some answers...

Maybe not a font, but hand lettered? Though slight, there are differences between the two L's and the three S's

Looking at the curves on the B & C, I'm not sure this logo started life as a font. I think someone built this from the ground up.

Yeah, that's pretty weird. Could you export it as a jpg or tiff file? I find pdfs can do weird stuff that I don't understand sometimes when run through a rip engine. Converting it to a raster image always seems to resolve those issues for me.

Sounds like your issue might be possibly related to something else, but when our greys start printing tan (it usually has a bit of a rose/mauve tint) it's always the Lt. Cyan/Lt. Magenta head. We've had them go out before the 1 year mark twice now. We've had to replace that head 3 times in 2 years.

I visited Texas for a few weeks once. Sometimes, to drive from this place in Texas over to that place in Texas, you'll need to pack a suitcase.

Well, I just did what I recommended, and the shipping is free, so I don't know how to approach that. It looks like it's a one time offer unless starting a subscription with the company makes sense for them, maybe tell them to get their one cheap run, and come see you for their next order?

Follow the link like you are going to order some. I bet once you get through the order to the shipping costs, then compare THAT price to your price.
