  3. New F1612, annoying issue with GoProduce Barcode.

    Not really, all they would need to do is put a line in the small print about barcode functionality is not available in all rips, please consult your reseller for more information.
  4. Onyx 12.2 - applying image bleed and overlap, what is the correct order of procedure?

    We always submit tiles as separate jobs, that way if 1 panel needs to be reprinted it is easy to do, I don't think it's even possible to reprint a single panel otherwise. I generally will make sure the overall size has bleed before I bring it into onyx, so if I'm printing a 10'x20' wall, I will...
  5. New F1612, annoying issue with GoProduce Barcode.

    This is 100% on grimco, they should be knowledgeable enough to know that the barcode is not compatible with rasterlink and advise you not to get it. Having said that we also have the f1612 with the barcode, and honestly it's worth the added cost, makes it much easier for employees to use, and...
  6. Any of your Cities, Towns, or Villages on fire yet?

    I'm reminded of this quote from a Methodist pastor. Methodist Pastor David Barnhart
  7. 3rd parties

    It depends,90% of the print brokers I've dealt with are terrible, they expect you to work for nothing and woo you with stories about " if we can get this one I know we will get all the work for this massive.company" Quote them a price you are comfortable with, based on the current job, not...
  8. Onyx cut line issue

    Jesus, we only paid $2500 to get 12.2 when we bought rhe printer and that was starting from scratch coming from versaworks.
  9. Onyx cut line issue

    So it seems the issue is caused when I tell onyx to print a label with the job, and the job gets rotated to fit, something about these 2 actions in the quickset cause onyx to mess up the cut line placement. Also if I print gutters with the job, the closing cut cuts on a severe angle. So don't...
  10. Onyx cut line issue

    I'm hoping someone can help with an issue I'm having. I have a job where I'm printing a few hundred client supplied pdf files, we are printing, laminating then cutting them out on our summa flatbed. I setup a quickset in onyx 12.2 to automatically put a through cut line around the perimeter of...
  11. VG2-540 to buy or not to buy? Pros/Cons, thinking of switching to Epson S80600

    As someone who has owned both, go with the epson, it's miles ahead of the roland in terms of speed and print quality
  12. Bad Business Practices

    Unplugging the power cord from both ends is a new one for me, make sure you shake it well enough for the electrons to fall out
  13. Roland Flatbed Printer

    Everything I've ever read about roland flatbed printers says they are slow, unreliable and expensive, I'm sure the new ones are similar.
  14. Gaming Trailer Graphics

    That would also be one way to loose the client I would think, if they tell you they own the images, it's not my job to police Nintendo's IP.
  15. How many is too many...emails

    Yeah, we use Gmail for our emails and they is a handy "schedule send" feature where you can write an email.and schedule it to send at a certain time, I use that quite a bit so my reply sends 24 hours later, it does help a bit
  16. How many is too many...emails

    Why is it that the smallest jobs usually have the most amount of handholding needed? I just completed a job for a client, a small engraved sign, total bill was $114, however there were 36 emails back and forth about the project, some were small revisions, but most were just general questions or...
  17. Print and install perf on interior?

    You can get non adhesive perf, you print then apply an optically clear mounting adhesive over the print and install it on the interior side, it's quite a bit more involved and much more expensive with no real benefit, but it does exist.
  18. Fired a customer

    Yeah I hear ya, it's tricky, 95% of our clients are great to work with, but that 5% can really kick your ass, and you can never tell until you are already invested in the project. I had a client a few years ago, call me wanting a polished bronze plaque, they were an interior designer and they...
  19. Arlon 3220 Cast laminate - suitable alternative to 3M 8518??

    I've never had an issue with the white point, definitely better than the oracal vinyl we used before it which was very blue.
  20. High tack clear

    Does anyone know of a clear solvent printable vinyl with a high tack adhesive? Doesn't need to be optically clear.
