  1. Suggestions Lexan Sprocket Punch-Outs Causing Intermittent Streaks Through Prints

    Howdy. Sometimes (not frequently, but enough to be annoying at least, and costly at worst) when printing on 10mil Lexan on our Gerber Edge FX, everything will be printing just wonderfully, until it isn't. At most of the time, that means we're getting a continuous unprinted line down the rest of...
  2. Covid Sick Time?

    I'll take the Fauci Kool-Aid over the swill that comes out of Gator Puke Creek.
  3. Small Printer/Plotter

    That's the advice I was given when I wanted to buy a BN-20. The vendor, who sold BN-20s, told me that for the price, I'd be better off getting a SP-300 or similar. Only a little more money, larger print area, faster, etc. Also told me how the white was damn near useless as far as speed and...
  4. Merry Christmas! I finally bought a printer

    Batteries not included. :( The worst kind of Christmas present.
  5. Free font site

    Usually that's the solution, but sometimes you can't get away with just rasterizing/outlining your fonts (e.g., a variable-data job where the text changes and paragraphs reformat on the fly).
  6. Need reliable trade printer (not 4over)

    Hard to put them at fault for the paper supply, given the world situation -- and they do seem to give warnings when supplies are thin and may require substitutions. But now that you mention the card printing lately has been lacking in quality, it appears to not be an isolated incident for you or...
  7. Adobe CC Licensing Error

    Do you have the software installed and operating on another system, or two? Or three? I ask because perhaps there are more than a couple of instances of the license running, thus knocking you off of yours.
  8. Need reliable trade printer (not 4over)

    My two pennies: I work full-time for an industrial sign business, and on the weekends / spare time I do some design work for mainly for my local neighborhood businesses. The only equipment I have for the side gig is my computer equipment (which gets upgraded next month, yahoooo!), and a 24" x16'...
  9. Light Bulb vs Litebulb

    27 to add another take on this list. Make that 28.
  10. Shop owner passed away...what happens to copyright?

    I think the best and most cost-effective bet for your friend is to print up some banners and/or send out a business mailing around town, advertising to the effect that there's only one place now for all of your printing needs. Don't forget the address and phone number.
  11. Windows 11 Upgrades anyone?

    I'm still trying to figure out what features are different in the "white person version" in comparison to whatever the "other" versions are. o_O
  12. Windows 11 Upgrades anyone?

    Yes, you are correct -- the Business side as of late still offers Win 10 Pro along with a Win 11 License, with the Home side only offering Win 11 Home. I guess they're figuring anyone ordering on the Business side would like the option to not risk blowing out their important software, and anyone...
  13. Windows 11 Upgrades anyone?

    Just a note: my auto-censored word there was more in the realm of flatulence, not fornication.
  14. Windows 11 Upgrades anyone?

    My main concern was that, when I customized and ordered my new Dell machine, it offered no other OS option other than Win11. And at the time, Adobe's list of compatible apps was pretty grim, and most importantly didn't include Illustrator. My machine wasn't due to ship until the end of December...
  15. we've been hired to repaint this exhibit at a zoo in Nashville but they have no record of the font used as it was a loooong time ago

    Gino, you mean those butcher paper signs we used to see in all of the grocery stores? Something like... this? (At a previous job, I thought we'd try to bring this kind of sign back for nostalgic purposes, but only I enjoyed the idea... This wasn't painted, though -- all fonts and mirrors).
  16. we've been hired to repaint this exhibit at a zoo in Nashville but they have no record of the font used as it was a loooong time ago

    I've heard of onionskin, mostly in the animation realm. Think I first heard the term back when animating on the Amiga 1000, using Deluxe Paint.
  17. What is a used HP Latex 110 Printer worth

    My mistake, I thought it was using the 792 inks.
  18. What is a used HP Latex 110 Printer worth

    Can you still get ink and maintenance supplies for a 110?
  19. Ritrama Vinyl

    Does anyone here use Ritrama-brand vinyl? Seems to be the latest casualty for us in the ongoing supply chain drama. Specifically I'm looking to find some Ritrama 3-9466 gloss white vinyl rolls. I've found that Duramark bought Ritrama USA at some point, and then recently Mactac bought Duramark...
  20. Do you wear gloves while applying vinyl?

    I've had both a pick and an x-acto roll off the table and stick into my shoe. I don't know why the barrels of these things are cylindrical instead of, oh, I dunno, ANY OTHER SHAPE.
