Same thing here...the more in-land, the longer it will last. We're about 5 air miles to the Atlantic and barrier island. The closer to the ocean, the faster the vinyl dries out and browns.

I worked with a company that printed a lot for backlit signage. Their shoe-in was 3651G Transparent with 210G overlaminate. This combo works great, but you have to "doublestrike" or lay a thick amount of ink down (so the reds don't look pink when the sign is lit, for example. Only problem, any...

Use RapidTac lightly. Test it with a smaller piece on the surface you'll be applying to. If it gets too wet, it's best to make sure all bubbles are out and either let dry time or use a heat gun to speed the adhesion process. You using 210 or 290 as overlaminate?

Everyone I know that has bought this printer has said that the profiles that come from Mutoh are crap. You will have to create your profiles for this printer. Also, did you attempt to create a CMYK black in Flexi, convert it to a spot color, then lessen the percentages to get your spectrum of...

Thank you!!! I knew I've used it before, but was like 17 years ago. Much appreciated.

Reaching out here as, of course, I have a crappy pic from a customer of something they want me to emulate. A few font ID apps couldn't take the script apart. Anyone have a clue?

I suggest Mutoh FTP and grabbing the latest firmware and File Uploader app.

Upgraded your firmware? What program you using to cut, Flexi?

Ok, but is it happening to the same fonts that were converted? Also, when you convert them and save, do you bring up the file to see if that line is there? I had this problem when creating contour lines. I dissect the file I've created until I find out what is creating the cut line I didn't create.

Does it usually with the same font(s) when cutting?

The lifting in the channels is going to happen no matter what you do. It's a Sprinter with an EXTREMELY deep recess. I usually tell the customer that I am going to make a relief cut for the recess because no matter what, it's going to come up. Vinyl is flexible, but it has a memory. The recess...

Where exactly are these located? Took the top metal cover and lower front & rear covers off, but I don't recall seeing this.

As most have said, "you can't go wrong with either", it's true. Summa or Graphtec, you're getting a strong workhorse piece of equipment. That said, I'd stay away from the HP. As someone said that it is a Summa, but with HP's hand in it for the firmware. Buy the Summa as the cost difference will...

On top of everything said, placing window perf on tinted windows throws another problem in the mix. The sun that does get through the holes, reflects off the tint and hits the back of the perf, thus aging it from both sides by dual heating and uv rays. It's also why cast, calendared, and...
