    How much space do you need?
  2. File server question

    Just to give an update to this thread, I got a synology ds920+ during black friday and put in 3 4TB HDDs copied over all my files from our old server and it's been working great! The synology is actually a little faster than the windows 10 pc we were using which was a nice surprise. With the 3...
  3. Hiring a business coach

    What exactly are you hoping to get from a business coach? I'm sure there are some good ones out there, but the old saying "Those who can't do...Teach" usually rings true.
  4. Change file from cmyk to rgb

    Who decided this? I use RGB for vectors, except when I don't and then I use CMYK, sometimes I even use pantone if I can afford it that month. Honestly as long as you don't mix the 2 on the same file expecting them to print the same there is usually not a huge issue. I can't tell you how many...
  5. Epson edge has a print and cut option ?

    Are you talking about "epson edge dashboard" if so it's not a rip, it's just a way to download profiles to load into a real rip, it has no real functionality.
  6. File server question

    Thanks, the reading I have done says if you use both ethernet slots you don;t get 2 GB but you will get 2 1GB connections so if 2 people are accessing the NAS at the same time they can in theory both download at 1GB speeds, but aparently it's a bit tricky to setup. I looked into the 10GBe but...
  7. File server question

    Thanks this is the one I'm considering, along with an extra 4GB ram stick to bring it up to 8GB total. It has 2 ethernet ports that you can bind together to get 2 concurrent 1Gb connections which should help with multiple users...
  8. File server question

    Thanks, how many people typically access your NAS at a time to cause slowdowns? We only have 3 employees here, the most process heavy task would probally be copying files to onyx. as for backups, I would schedule them to happen off hours every night. The TrueNAS looks interesting, how is it...
  9. File server question

    I currently use Carbonite, but it's not as good as it once was, the software crashes on a regular basis and the download speeds are horrible if you ever need to get your files back, there is backblaze which is similar but has much better reviews and can run nativly on most NAS devices. I will...
  10. File server question

    I'm really not technically savvy enough to run and manage a proper server with a proper server OS on it, what I have currently works just fine for our needs, like I said I'm just trying to be proactive and replace it before I come in one day to a dead server and all the BS that comes with that...
  11. File server question

    We have an older windows 7 pc that we use as a file server in the shop, all working files get saved to it and it's accessible to every computer in the shop. It also gets backed up to Carbonite. It's getting a bit old now and I want to be proactive in replacing it. About 10 years ago I tried...

  14. Will an Epson S80600 fit through a standard interior door width?

    It's been a few years since we got our s80600, but at the time it came with onyx gammaprint, which is a stripped down print only version of onyx, you couldn't add crop marks for cutting. Might want to check and see which version it really come with.
  15. Alternatives To SignAgent For Plan Reviews?

    One of our good clients uses sign agent, I really don't like it, I find it completly unintuitive and poorly designed. We use Vista style signs with this customer, so printed paper insert, then tactile and braille on the lens, they told me it's impossible for them to supply 2 separate files, 1...
  16. CALENDARED VINYL with MATTE OVERLAM for print & cut vehicle decals

    Never done it, it shouldn't need to be done. As far as calendered vs. Cast, there are "high performance" calendered films like 3M 40c, arlon 4600 etc. That can be used on some vehicles if needed, they are also great films for dibond signs and other medium to long term graphics, Arlon 4600 is...
  17. CALENDARED VINYL with MATTE OVERLAM for print & cut vehicle decals

    Automark is a calendered vinyl as well, the Arlon laminate you mentioned should work perfectly fine for it, however with vehicles you should be using a true cast vinyl and laminate, but I understand not wanting to buy a full roll of each if it's not something you do often. We use the Arlon 3420...

    My experience is that someone that pulls into our shop in a Porsche is more likley to ask for a discount than someone in a Pontiac
