Seems like adding more work to put those in a piece at a time instead of just doing at once. Just me.

+1 learn corel. If print and cut is all she does it will serve well. I started with paint brushes and have changed with the times. I can run signlab in my sleep, lol. Still have and use corel as well as illy and ps. Corel has excellent import filters for taking in customer files. Hell, signs...

You're the first screen printer on the thread, lol. You can still underbase with white, just one lick from non flooded screen. Nice and thin. It helps.. SOunds like maybe the OP should outsource to you. Just a suggestion from an old squeegee rat.

Signlab since the get. I have corel and all adobe but SL carries 99% of my workload.

Try Nazdar/Source One.

Last printer was an epson photopainter full solvent 64" roll to roll. I purchased a bn20 just to do labels. Next one, (of any size, if I buy another) will be another epson. Anytime it had trouble it got fixed under warranty. Roland billed me under warranty to fix a motherboard on a less than...

Epson. Bought my first and last roland two years ago just to have a small printer in the shop for minimal orders and specialty work, like my own labeling needs. Good machine, worthless warranty and service.

Worst thing that happened to my business this year was grimeco bought tubelite. Had a decades long history with them and it is toast. Instantly service and deliveries were gone and They wanted to use my credit card again. They have a terrible history of bookkeeping and accounting. No way I let...

Once Grimco bought Tubelite all the reasons we loved Tubelite disappeared. I now drive an hour each way to our local plastics house and get 99% of our substrate there. Heck, what Nazdar just did to a cartridge order for shipping is ridiculous. Sign of the times I guess. Didn't think I'd be the...

Still just me and the Mrs. Maybe a few more years for her but I'm pretty much the cranky supervisor any more, lol. Still we kept the bills paid and had a good time.

Translation...I have a cricut and or bn20 and I want to start a side business in my spare bedroom so I need to know what to charge. I usually tell people I'm not the cheapest or the most expensive. Tell the nice lady up front what you want and she can help you. The I refortify my perimeter.

Ready to take screen printing coroplast signs in house? I am selling this press for my local Fraternal Order of Police. I sold it to them a few years back and they have closed their facility for political sign printing for local candidates they support. Press is in excellent running order in my...

First computer cutting program I used was Anagraph, then casmate, signlab since. Was an old hand letter and screen print guy myself back in 83. Remember dark rooms and long bed graphic cameras?

You'd be surprised what an old or damaged blade can do. Also a loose blade holder. Sometimes a fix can be as simple as tightening a screw. Other times.....

Absolutely this. 60 degree blade is a must for this type of cut.
