  1. Can I print multiple print/cut jobs at same time without nesting ?

    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"...

  3. Graphtec FC8600-160 cuts 1/6" too wide

    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...
  4. Time for a new cutter

    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?
  6. Building a RIP station for ONYX - Seeking computer specs feedback

    What about Flexi as a RIP station? I'm not married to ONYX, I've currently got Flexi Complete on another work station and have never used it for printing. What specs are important for running a RIP station running Flexi? Same as ONYX or do they process things differently?
  7. Building a RIP station for ONYX - Seeking computer specs feedback

    That's the thing. I tried looking up the specs of what ONYX Thrive needs on their website but was not successful, hence asking here. I send ONYX an email as well, no response from them yet. But from the sound of it, looks like if I just go crazy on everything minus the GPU I'll be in good shape.
  8. Building a RIP station for ONYX - Seeking computer specs feedback

    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...

  11. Solvent smell on Epson S80600L's

    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...

  13. Latex vs Solvent coverage per ml

    Agreed
  14. Latex vs Solvent coverage per ml

    This is all great info and exactly how I would determine our ink cost. What I'm trying to determine is if you printed the same exact jobs (53,000 ml of ink) on an Epson S80600L, would you have used the same, more, or less ink. In the past 6 months, we have gone through 151,000 ml of ink...
  15. Latex vs Solvent coverage per ml

    All I'm looking for is if I go through say 10,000 ml of Latex Cyan in 4 months. How much would I have gone through if I printed the same jobs in solvent. Would it be more, or less, or about the same?
  16. Latex vs Solvent coverage per ml

    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...

    How long do you wait after printing before you laminate prints?
  18. Considering replacing our HP800’s with Epson S60600’s - Feedback please

    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...
