sorry toodark, sounds like you're doing everything right.. I don't know. What does caldera support say?

This sucks and has happened to me when there is a personnel change... someone is promoted or fired, and a new person is in charge of the ordering process. Techman is right.. but it's hard to profile someone on the phone... or when you are really busy and they call as if they are "ready to...

You're not crazy.

Just checking.. Did you let caldera setup the cropmarks through Caldera? Or did you do it before you did the upgrade using illustrator or corel? If so.. Caldera won't know about them.

What do you have for the "Positioning" setting? See image...

When you say facing the direction do you mean type 1 vs the type 2 that you were probably using? Caldera doesn't give you a choice unfortunately, but it still works well with type 1. When you say that it can't find the marks.. you are telling the cutter to start a cut and then you get a message...

Is printing on clear (say 3651) really that amateurish? If you make a custom profile of it after placing your backer vinyl... results should be good? I'm asking because I have my first 2nd surface acrylic "showpiece" coming up and that was going to be my plan. But I could also print on...

If you figured something like this out.. that would be pretty cool! A green light when safe to laminate :smile:

If it's the takeup, it's probably just not straight and pulling it to the side, but this should be obvious as you're printing, you'll see one side get very tight and the other start to sit 'high' off the post-heater.

Neil, Which version of caldera are you using? Just got this reply a few days ago from Caldera: "That rule doesn't apply anymore to the latest i1Profiler we're currently using. It will be removed from the next version of our manual. The only effect of limiting your primaries in order to...

Just laminated a whole bunch today with 210 - no issues. Does your problem occur with all laminates? What are you using?

Sounds like it's bunching up between the pinch rollers as it's feeding. Do you see that happening if you use a flashlight to look through the window while it's printing/feeding? Also, what happens when you roll out the roll without printing by just pressing the down button. Should be able to...

The Epson tech said he couldn't help you? I've had banner bunch up on my s30 when I first got it. First I had problems with too much heat, or uneven heat from pre and platen heaters. Then if I'm lazy and it's not loaded perfectly straight, or if the roll is telescoped when loading, I will see...

I am having this issue right now... 30% humidity in my shop and it's really bad. Hair stands up on legs when walking close to the machine! Got through some prints by standing behind the machine with a bounce pad wiping every metal surface unexposed, the platen, the frame... had someone stand...

I *just* had this problem, but only with avery 2060. I crank the tension on the laminate feed roll, and the takeup reel roll, and I can see that the where the liner is separating from the laminate, it's actually pulling it off the top pressure roller. Didn't notice with any other laminate. Is...

Thanks guys, appreciate all the advice. We're going to use this stuff for indoors only right now. The edges look good, but it still peels up really easy, whereas avery etchmark really lays down so strong that I have no worries whatsoever. One thing I noticed - almost everyday I peeled up a...

looks like we might have 4 more degrees than that next week. did you use this mactac stuff? thanks

OK, so this morning I looked at at the sample I put on my back window, and the avery etchmark is definitely sticking harder than the mactac. Having said that, the mactac lays down nice and I don't really see a reason for the edges to lift. I'm sure the adhesive will bond better over time...

Hi guys, just got some JT5796M BF, the mactac frosted with air release. Was hoping to use it for an install next week on storefront windows (outside). It's getting cold and right now midday it's 4deg celcius, 39 farenheit. Just tried a sample patch of this vinyl on my back window, and it's...

Awesome tip about the over tension, I was getting some of the edges lifting off the table and didn't know if it had something to do with pressure, but now I'm going to reduce the tension. Was hoping to make 3651 my go to vinyl.. but scared now. With heavy coverage did you see quick shrinkage...
