So I did up a layout today for a customer's sign which I added a couple of directional arrows pointing in 1 direction. Saved the file and exported it in order to email it to him. when I open up the file again the arrows now have a point on each end. Has this ever happened to anyone else before...

So just picked up a new D75 cutter this week. Closed on Sat. but I am in my shop this afternoon thinking I could get my cutter up and running. Take the CD out of the pkg. to install the drivers, should be a simple thing right, just follow the instructions on the CD & install wizard, well 1 1/2...

EZ Roller demonstration on UTube , does anyone know where they are from? The table and roller carriage look simpler and less expensive than a rollsover or cwt table. The video is downloaded from AuRaDevServices [Automation and Rapid Development Services] Where in the heck is that? I am...

Has anyone out there thought of building their own laminating / application table? I have a hard time considering the cost of a rollover type of mounting table at 15 to 20 thousand. I know one fellow that has an ezy taper mounting machine and he said he really likes it, and it is half the price...

We purchased a new vs540i 4 months ago. When we create a sign in our signlab 8 program with a solid color background, export it to the desktop then send it to versaworks for printing we get vertical banding in the solid print colors. Roland doesn't have an answer for this one. Frustrated with...

I like to think of most people with good intensions when they call and ask me about what I can do for them. One week ago a lady from a real estate office calls me and asks for price for 2 open house signs, 2 boards 2 sides 4mm coroplast, 3mil vinyl, size 20x24. I figure material cost $6.50 times...

Hi Everyone Looking for your thoughts and opinions on this. We had a SP540i with cmyk, we could print reasonably good vibrant reds, yellows and oranges. Last week we had a new VS540i installed at our shop and decided to go with the recommended 7 ink configuration. After printing off our new...

Hi I have a SP540i that I have had for 5years now It has been a good machine. My Roland dealer called me and offered to do me a trade up deal to a new VS540i. My question is, how many years has the VS540i been out for now? I don't want to buy a model that is going to be discontinued in a year...

Hi I have 2 customers, 1 customer wants me to wrap his ATV with Mossy Oak camo. I know mossy oak is printed on IJ180vc3, but is the adhesive aggressive enough to bond to the atv plastic. Mossy Oak has a u-tube video and of course they make it look so easy. I just don't want the customer to leave...
