Hey everyone,
I'm printing client labels on gold vinyl with the Roland LEC2-640 and the final product has some intermittent blurring going on. It doesn't do it with any other vinyl. It seems to effect vertical strips about .5-1 inch wide. They're not always in the same spots. It's not the...
Hi Everyone,
LONG time lurker and enjoyer of this amazing community. My company primarily does wall wraps with calendared and cast films. Today a customer came in with a quote on an industrial wall covering. It was very thick, very rigid and had virtually no overlapping seams. I believe this is...
Hey everyone, I am looking to get some dry erase 15" vinyl or approx. 13.5" overlam to use with my gerber edge 2. The issue is, I don't even know if anything like that exists. Can anyone tell me if there is a product that I am looking for out there and available?
Thanks,
Will
Hello guys, so i usually charge as a sqft when i cut letters and stuffs on vinyl, but when 1 sqft is completely filled with letters/shapes charging the same amount as 1sqft that contains a few cuts doesn't make sense. So how do you generally charge in this type of job. Im currently using...

We use Arlon SLX cast (54"x150') for most of our printed vehicle wraps, and Arlon Fusion for application to flat surfaces like box trucks. Someone called offering us Briteline WrapCAST Vinyl Film that's about $200 cheaper per roll. When comparing kits with laminate, We could save almost $400 if...
Legitimate question: does Orafol's numbering system, specifically for Orajet products (digital media) have any rhyme or reason to it? I can't wrap my head around it.
At the moment we use a lot of 3M 40c simply because that's the vinyl our largest client prefers, and so we tend to have it...
I'm having trouble finding the sweet spot for plotting pressure for my boss. He has me increase the pressure to improve the speed an ease of weeding vinyl, but then when he goes to do the installs on site, he has trouble with the backing paper separating and coming up with the vinyl. So he asks...
So one of our biggest clients has this dot pattern that gets put onto the windows at all their locations. Every dot gets cut out individually. One location can have 20+ feet of dots that go onto 8'-10' high windows. I'm trying to find a way to create weeding lines for this behemoth.
This is...
Hello. So it seems ever since it started getting really chilly this winter we've begun having issues with our Orajet 3164m developing bubbles, before we even print onto it, and only partway into the roll too which is very inconvenient. We use an HP Latex 110. The room rarely gets below 40 even...
Hello,
Our shop has been having a lot of inconsistencies with our Mimaki CG-160fx. Some of the issues include, the blade will not lift up all the way and drags through the vinyl, sometimes the plotter doesn't cut the entire file or cuts too deep or too shallow. Also, we have encountered the...
Hi there-
I'm looking to find a better way to make some decals with a gloss design on top of matte black and a color boarder. I've been layering to this point, but want to step up my game.
I've been designing and selling decals over the last 3 years. Started out as a side hustle (while a full...
We looking start vinyl printing Decals for Construction and want to ask if anyone knows of a subscription you can purchase for construction/ag vector format logo decals for Deere, Bobcat, Case, Cat etc... here are some sample images of the type of vectors I'm looking for. Willing to pay for...
Hi All,
I've been working on some 6"x4" ceramic blanks that are going onto bedroom doors in an inn.
My first attempt was to use die-cut vinyl, apply direct to ceramic and then clear coat it with mod podge spray lacquer. We may have applied the coats to thick, but as the pictures (hopefully)...
Hey all, I haven't been on here for a while but I am back because I have a small problem with my Gerber Edge II and it's printing.
I will attach pictures below, but my problem is my Edge II isn't printing very well, say I were to print a test strip that takes up the whole print head, looking...
Hey all! I want to resurrect our outdated sign company that we had to shut down 3 years ago. I clearly need to upgrade from an old Gerber Edge and Envision plotter to LFD printer plotter (40-60")
and have no idea where to start. I have a budget of around $15-20,000. Software is Gerber Omega 5...
When loading outdoor calendered vinyl in the HP Latex 370 it asks for the subtrate category and media group/name. Does anyone know what the media group and name would be for this? I'd appreciate the help.
UPDATE: I figured it out
anyone know where I can get a super vivid mirror chrome vinyl?
I have used many brands over the years and have yet to come across a perfect mirror chrome look.
It always has the simple ripple look because of the adhesive.
And always has a dull finish (if you know what I mean)
It is for boat...
Please help!
So I got the Orajet 3651 glossy and I'm trying to print something with the BN-20, but the print comes up with lines like this(See attached image). I believe the cause for this is the profile settings. I have searched the available profiles of Roland on their website, but the Orajet...
