I've been asked to make some machine overlays which I cut on my laser cutter but I'm a little stuck as to what materials to print on using my 2 printers. I have a BN20A and a Sawgrass SG1000 sublimation printer.
The card stock I'm trying to use is called PolyBak very durable/strong but also...
Hello guys, I'm still pretty new here.
I have recently made the jump into starting my own small sign shop after working for over 20 years on other peoples shops on and off. However, in all those years I was only involved in design and manufacturing and never in coming up with pricing. My...

Hi team,
Wondering if anyone else has had the fight of the century featuring a latex printer and printing onto Optical Clear material.
We are having this ongoing battle every time we use the material.
The material is sticking in the loading chamber causing the print zone to get all types of...
OK... So, I have been using DesignArt PRO software daily for more than 20 years. Before you hate. I find myself married to it, for this is where all my past designs were created. It was the software used when I took this job in 1999 and already housed thousands of designs. The software company...
I was trying to print out a past job and noticed that my blues were not clost to what I had before. I figured out that it was because an entire nozzle isnt working for cyan on print head 2.
Any idea how this can be fixed without replacing the nozzle. Ive done a manual cleaning and several head...
I feel like after digging through so many posts involving Gerber plts I don't have many options at this point. I work in a small sign shop of just myself. We used Gerber Omega 4.0 for a long time but as I came in they switched to Flexi. I've been fine with it for the longest time. Over time...
I have a Mistral 1650, 55'' Laminator. When I try to run vinyl through the machine it won't feed the material. It pulls in the vinyl a little and then shoots it back out and does not move forward.
It makes a large clacking sound when trying to feed.
Hello all,
It's unfortunate news to hear one of your vendors is closing its doors but it happens. We have been using JRS for years and have had a great experience and have clients who have certain products that we only receive from them. I'm curious if anyone has any other recommendations as to...

Im using a Mimaki cjv30 and im looking to print directly on some magnetic material for some fridge magnets. This seems to be quote a common material that's used in the print world but ive purchased some material from eBay and they have emailed after the sale stating they are not held responsible...

First post, hope it's posted in the right spot.
My sg2-300 is just over 3 years old. I've kept it clean and kept up with general maintenance.
It recently started printing horizontal lines over my prints, and over test/nozzle prints as well.
I have power cleaned, manual, checked everything that...
Just assembled our new Gfp 350 TH. Super excited to start using it but currently stuck on a setup step. This could totally be a bonehead user error thing, many of these GFP components are new to me but I'm currently stumped. The groove doesn't line up with the opening of the cradle that the...
