  2. Need Help FineCut wont allow me to put intermediate registration marks...

    I'm using FineCut8 on Illustrator (and have just downloaded FineCut9 trial to see if there's any difference, and there's not) When placing registration marks, the option to add intermediate registration marks is greyed out and unavailable to click... Any help or ideas on why this is happening &...
  3. Onyx/Oce Colorado communication issues

    I've found with our Colorado, it has this issue when the file is saved remotely (on a server) not saved locally on the computer, I usually put the file im trying to print on the desktop of the PC im printing from & try again. I'm guessing the connection may dip in and out of where the file is...
  4. Cleaning UV cured prints?

    I wouldn't want to tell you to use any certain cleaning agents incase of damaging the print. Perhaps get in contact with the people who printed it & ask them as they will know best how to clean it for their certain printer's specs & requirements...
  5. Cleaning UV cured prints?

    I would go over it very lightly with a non-abrasive microfibre cloth without any cleaning agent

  7. Need Help FineCut 8 - Plotting/Half Cutting Long Runs

    Hi all, I was just wondering if anyone knew of how to add registration marks in the middle of a long drop. I often get a job in which requires 3.5m long graphics to be plotted, but it often goes off track & skewed. Any tips or tricks? Thanks!

  9. Need Help Onyx 12 RIP won't open PDF files

    Hi all! Can anyone shed some light on why Onyx won't open certain PDF files? It's not every single file, but now and then it simply doesn't load the file. It doesn't even acknowledge that a file has been imported in the console in the bottom right. Help? Thanks in advance!
  10. Oce Colorado 1640 Brittle Media

    Thank you Jim, although I'm aware of these pre profiled media's. We still have splitting with some of these medias too! :( I think it may be just our machine (hopefully for the sake of anyone else who has a Colorado!)
  11. Mimaki CG160 FXII - Cut Through?

    Amazing! Thank you!
  12. Mimaki CG160 FXII - Cut Through?

    Hi Guys! Does anyone have any special tips on (if possible) using the CG160-FXII to cut through the media fully rather than contour cutting? I'm currently using the plotter to only do cut contours, but due to a job that has just come in, I'm going to have to hand cut 500 square stickers by...
  13. Oce Colorado 1640 Brittle Media

    If they're all certified medias that you plan on using you might not have any issues. However, some of the products we use aren't 'approved medias'. It's just a bit frustrating to have to be limited to an approved list. :(

  15. What on earth vinyl does this? holy %$%$
