  1. UV Printable 2-sided poster material

    I am looking for a 2-sided printable poster paper that is UV compatible. Something that has some sort of blockout to it so you aren't getting the images showing through on the opposite sides. I have a Colorado 1650. Any suggestions?
  2. Just bought a Graphtec FC9000, Cannot get it to function properly

    Yes, we were having these issues when the guy installed it. He was here from the time that we opened until we closed trying to figure it out. He said that he was going to try to get a hold of onyx to see if they could give him any advice but we haven't heard back.
  3. Just bought a Graphtec FC9000, Cannot get it to function properly

    Yes, mine did this as well today. That was when I decided to throw in the towel on flexi and just downloaded the plug in for CM4 on CorelDRAW.
  4. Just bought a Graphtec FC9000, Cannot get it to function properly

    I have another question. We are running printed shirt vinyl on it now. For some reason it is cutting almost all of the vinyl exactly how the file is setup, but in some areas the pen is moving in the correct cut pattern, but it is not dropping down to cut it. So there are some parts of it that...
  5. Just bought a Graphtec FC9000, Cannot get it to function properly

    I downloaded the Plug in for cut master on CorelDRAW and It seems to be working as far as sending the Cut Contour files through there. As soon as I have my current job finished I am going to have to give your suggestion a try. Thank you!
  6. Just bought a Graphtec FC9000, Cannot get it to function properly

    We have Onyx Thrive Version 19.0.3. It gives us 2 options for the barcode, either standard or Roll. When we use the Standard Barcode, that is when it puts it in the Bottom Left Corner instead of the Bottom Right where the lead edge is. Using standard is when we have to tell it to rotate 90. When...
  7. Just bought a Graphtec FC9000, Cannot get it to function properly

    I just bought this Graphtec FC900 after previously owning the Mutoh VC-1300. I am getting super frustrated with it and I just got it 2 days ago. We are using both flexi and onyx to process our jobs. In Onyx, we can get it to print to our Colorado 1650, but it is putting the barcode in the wrong...
  8. Looking for a substrate at .050" thickness that can be backlit

    I just wanted to give everyone an update on this project. I ended up using the PETG. It is .020 thickness and it worked great. Thank you for the suggestions. If anyone needs it for anything they have it on amazon for a great price!
  9. Looking for a substrate at .050" thickness that can be backlit

    I came across this the other day! I was just concerned about it only being .030" Thickness. Was it still pretty sturdy when you used it? Also, how was it with the backlighting, did it make the image foggy at all?
  10. Looking for a substrate at .050" thickness that can be backlit

    I think the PETG might be a good option for this project. Do you all provide any samples? Also do you have a catalog book with all of your products that you offer? We use Wensco and Fellers for most of our signage and materials but would like to explore different options.
  11. Looking for a substrate at .050" thickness that can be backlit

    I think I might be leaning toward the PETG but I just need to see if anyone will provide a sample.
  12. Looking for a substrate at .050" thickness that can be backlit

    Do you usually purchase your directly from them or do you have a different supplier? Also, do you know if they give samples?
  13. Looking for a substrate at .050" thickness that can be backlit

    This project has been in the works since the beginning of the year. When COVID hit the customer wasn't open so it got pushed back. Now that they are opening up again we have to get this figured out. That may not be a bad idea though. I will have to look into that. I want to try to see if I can...
  14. Looking for a substrate at .050" thickness that can be backlit

    Is it too thin to stand on its own? It would need to be fairly rigid.
  15. Looking for a substrate at .050" thickness that can be backlit

    Is the Excellite Rigid enough to stand on its own when slide into the slot of the cooler or do I need something behind it?
