    Self Taught Newbie -- Color, Material or Media Setting Problem

    So I did a few different things to try and correct. Different media profiles. Customized media profiles. Tweaking the ink limits and fine tuning the colors. I have it to where it's barely ok but usable. Lesson learned is that I shouldn't have ordered matte. I also didn't know enough to order...

    Self Taught Newbie -- Color, Material or Media Setting Problem

It looked like a great addition to my product line. I bought one of his banners. It's printed on thick shiny vinyl which I believe is...

    Grainy Printing even with Vector art.

    I have a Roland Versacam VS 300-i. Almost everything I do is stickers. I'm using genuine Roland ink and printing on General Formulations 220 (shiny white adhesive backed vinyl 6 mil).

  7. Suggestions Looking to Ditch Flexi..cut monthly costs

    I see what you're saying but this isn't my regular job just a hobby / side business I'm trying to do. Sometimes I go weeks without using the software. In additional I have other monthly costs for my site hosting so every bit adds up. I'd be willing to pay the fee if I actually used it more but...

  8. Suggestions Looking to Ditch Flexi..cut monthly costs

    I am not proficient in AI so I haven't opted for the full Adobe subscription. Considered it however, adding cut lines in AI is more complex than with Flexi.

  9. Suggestions Looking to Ditch Flexi..cut monthly costs

    I have a Roland Versacamm 300i print/cut. I use Flexi designer ($30 monthly) to add my cut lines, export my files and then rip and print/cut with the Roland Versaworks software. I also use Photoshop ($10 a month). I'd love to replace Flexi with ANYTHING else. I find it buggy and non - intuitive...
