  3. Light Pole Banner Questions

    Hey Nate...typically the lightest we would use would be 15oz with 18oz being more the norm. We have welding capabilities for hems and pocketing. That said, we typically fold over the edges on the banners first and then sew the hemmed sides and create the pockets as well with sewing. We have a...

  7. Flatbed Print limits?

    I know on our QS we can print in a "light smoothing" and the print itself is fine but has a heavy and quite visible lawnmower effect that we try to stay away from at all times. Banding due to head dropout is not an issue in this mode and doesn't effect the overall image quality. Here are both...
  8. Gradient printing question

    Ive seen this happen in gradients that clients supply me as well. Sometimes has to do with a certain value of CMYK or RGB and how it translates at the rip. 2% might actually show up as 7%...giving me a dark band or a weird shade at a point of the gradient. Only way for me to pinpoint is to...

  10. Flatbed Print limits?

    That depends on the printer and software. Certain colors come out much better for us if CMYK originally. The greens would pop a bit more, but the overall image is better on my equipment as the CMYK. Getting back to the original issue at hand, that print shipped out should not have gone out.
  11. Flatbed Print limits?

    Our rip soft are has the option of either allowing the embedded profile to assist in color management or strip it out and ignore it. We typically strip it out as we know our equipment is dialed in with the profile we have and settings for the inks. We wouldn't have an issue doing this job even...
  12. Roland - printing only black

    Perserve Primary colors on the color settings menu.
  13. Flatbed Print limits?

    If its a .jpg file...its raster. Theres no doubting a pixel is a pixel in that. It all comes down to the software/printer operators paying attention to what they are doing and making sure, what they see on the screen is what they're getting on output. If it were some sort of eps file and an...
  14. Flatbed Print limits?

    KW....absolutely its the printer's fault on that one.
  15. Flatbed Print limits?

    Our machine would produce nearly exactly what you sent...within reason of course. Background photo would be there and visible, I can see the roof pattern there. The Outline on the text that was lost is inexcusable as well. Poor print and QC job.

  17. Why I hate outsourcing

    Outsourcing I hate to say it...but when you deal with a large, low price, volume provider like them, they have the tendency to care less about the end result and print and simply deal with any results after the fact. I hear this all the time.."but their price is cheaper"...well there ya go...
  18. White Faced Black PVC?

    There is a white faced-black cored PVC. unsure who makes it though. Start asking around...harbor supply, AGFA, Piedmont Plastics....none of my first-line vendors have it like Grimco or N Glantz have it. The other thing you can always do is take your black PVC, and simply Laminate it with white...
  19. Vertical Banding on FLORA

    We have an older Vutek 3360....typically when we got vertical banding on it, the back pressure for some reason built up before the secondary ink tanks and caused it to happen. We had to shut the machine down, equalize the pressure then bring it back up. Little easier in solvent days possibly...
