  1. GFP 355TH Flip Up Feed Table locked

    Winner winner you get the chicken dinner. I took off the side panel, saw the bolt holding the left side of the table in place and loosened it. I guess over time, lifting the table over 8 years of time, it tightened itself up. Loosened it and now it moves. Thanks!!

  2. GFP 355TH Flip Up Feed Table locked

    Thanks. Mine didn't come with the "up position" locks, I think I got jipped on those. LOL. I can pull off my side cover and check as well...didn't think about doing that, great idea.

  3. GFP 355TH Flip Up Feed Table locked

    Anyone have any ideas?

  4. GFP 355TH Flip Up Feed Table locked

    This may seem like a dumb question, but I've tried everything I can think of and this is a stumper. I have a GFP 355 Top Heat laminator, and the flip-up feed table is locked in the down position. I can't swing it up any more, it seems to be locked on the left side so I can't swing it up...

  9. Question Printers and Vinyl for die cut stickers

    HP 365, Graphtec 8600, GFP lamiator, Flexi. Got it all and love every bit of it. Print, laminate, cut, no need for drying or offgassing. Latex inks don't scratch, no need for laminating. Happy girl here :)

    Question How to you make large purchasing decisions?

    ^^^^ Me Too ^^^^ I'm running a solo print shop as well. Girls rock! FireSprint.com , in answer to your question, I research the hell out of the options of what I'm going to purchase, based on my needs. The first place I start is recommendations from signs101, then I'll google reviews on...

  12. First time buyer for Large Format Printer

    I have an HP latex and love it. Been using it for over 5 years now. Easy to use, very little maintenance, no smell, no outgassing before laminating, brilliant colors. Never touched a UV or solvent printer, so I have nothing to compare it to, sorry. As folks have told you already, as much $$...

  13. Adobe update won't let me use Cutting Master 4

    Hehe, I'm still using Illustrator 2019 with CutMaster4, because I'm afraid to upgrade it to the 2020-2021 ai version. I still use Adobe 2022 products , but my RIP computer maintains 2019 illustrator to be used with CM4 only. If it aint broke, don't fix it. Good luck with it MMPLarge Format...
