  1. Old ShopBot...anyone still running one?

    We're probably running the same ShopBot. Call or email ShopBot support - they're pretty good help even on the older machines. Ours will not stop on a dime but it does stop in place pretty darn quick. All original control board, just replaced the gecko drivers several times over the years...
  2. Suggestions Recommendations for all around virus/email/malware/ransomware etc. protection?

    I have not run any antivirus solution in my home environment for the past 15 years. I currently managed anywhere from 3-7 customer infrastructures at a time with 5-10 users each, and a few years ago headed up an IT team with over 75 end-users - no antivirus software there either. Set password...
  3. Anyone have the Mutoh 1641SR Pro yet?

    We're running two of them.
  4. Flexi Color Corrections (HP LATEX 315)

    We usually export art from Ai at 150 dpi depending on the artboard size and final print size needed. 150 dpi works well at full scale on our equipment.
  5. Flexi Color Corrections (HP LATEX 315)

    I'm thinking you have extra layers or some other things improperly imported and not being handled by Flexi the right way. Try exporting the artwork in raster format from Ai before importing into Flexi.
  6. Transparency Gradient

    The fella has a speech impediment. I just rewatched this and with the volume up I can hear and understand what he's saying. Glad you enjoyed the video though.
  7. What should I do?

    You're probably right, depending on local laws and s... But it does fall within the "get your 12 f*****g cameras pointed away from my house you creeper" - ya sort of deal with that a different way.
  8. What should I do?

    Tex, as another Texan, I agree with a few of these recommendations. Some of them are spot on - . Ya tell that lithium mower fool that if you ever see one of his cameras, pointed even in the general direction of your property - especially at your girls, that you'll deal with this situation in a...
  9. 3M Blue Tape alternative

    We were up against the same issue a couple of years ago and then a contract installer turned us onto this PG American masking tape. We were going through 3-4 rolls of 3M 284 on one large wrap job (had several of the same jobs at once) hanging panels and it got pricey. This stuff is also rather...
  10. What would you like to learn more about in the print ind?

    Try out some sort of project management software. We have used several different ones over the years but currently use Trello - have been for 2+ years now and it works great! They have a free version (that we're about to max out on feature and user use with) and a free add-in called Playway...
  11. I think i may have made the biggest mistake ever buying a new Mutoh

    Similar to your situation, we purchased (1) 1641 in March of 2020 to replace one of our two aged 1624s. We purchased another 1641 in October of 2020 and retired the other 1624. We have had a relatively good experience with both of these machines besides a couple of parts that were replaced under...
  12. New printer keeps dropping of the network

    I think we need a little more information as far as their current setup to properly give any help. I mainly just listed two of our working setups...
  13. New printer keeps dropping of the network

    If you have this connected to your main network, you need to give both devices a static IP in their settings, and designate that in your RIP as well I imagine having the different IP subnets on the same small network is causing problems. If you have enough ports on your workstation, you can...
  14. Any tricks for centering graphics on T-shirt heat transfers?

    I don't remember the name of it from when I was in the sublimation biz, but there's a low-tac adhesive spray you can use to temporarily adhere the graphic to the T before you press, this helps keep it from sliding around when pressing or getting graphics staged on several shirts before pressing...
