  1. Need Help Prep Illustrator ATV / Snowmobile Graphic Files for Printing

    This seems like the simplest/most logical way to do it, unless I'm missing something. Take it one step forward and use a true shape nesting plugin and you're away to the races.
  2. Review of the Roland LG-640

    Some of the points you make, I believe, will apply across the board with roll to roll UV printers. We have Mimaki's version of this printer (UCJV), and have also found blacks to be dull and that there are challenges when it comes to cutting due to thicker UV ink, as well as masking printed...
  3. Graphics Question

    Not sure I agree with this approach, but to each their own I guess. I understand the concept of law of averages but most of the time customers have no idea how to provide usable print files, which means that most customer supplied "art" needs to be set up or redrawn. Not charging for this time...
  4. I installed Versaworks 6 on new computer. How do I get my old jobs from old computer to show up in the queues and job log on the new computer?

    Unless they've added a new archive feature, I believe you'd have to save all the .rvw files in your old queue/computer, then load them all in on the new computer.

  6. Latex vs Solvent coverage per ml

    It can't be that simple!!!! Lol. I'll have to test that out next time I'm tracking ink consumption.

    I'll show you a fun twist to your leisure moment!
  8. Latex vs Solvent coverage per ml

    Yeah I'm not sure that picoliter size translates to ink consumption, but I could be wrong. Salesmen will tell you literally anything to make their offering sound better and make a sale.

  10. roland XC-540 NEW/USED Issues

    We had this come up every so often with our old XC-540. It mostly happened with jobs that had full bleed black print and with a gloss laminate. We tried turning off the lights, having the cover open or closed...etc etc. I think the thing that helped the most was putting a small piece of...
  11. Need Help Printing these little Dot Gains

    Happy to help! Good luck with getting your shop set up and toasty!
  12. Need Help Printing these little Dot Gains

    That's a good start. That isn't dot gain, that's ink being too cold/not viscous enough to cure properly. The other part of the climate control equation will be humidity. I would suspect your area will be dry due to the forced air, so it might be a good idea to get a humidifier. We just got...
  13. Need Help Printing these little Dot Gains

    You're going to kill that printer storing it and using it in those conditions. I'm amazed it's even firing at all. From Roland's website: Not operating Temperature: 41 to 104 °F (5 to 40 °C), Humidity: 20 to 80 % RH (no condensation) During operation (*4): Temperature: 68 to 89.6 °F (20 to...
  14. Discussion Wide Format Pricing Calculator

    This is awesome, thanks for doing all this Gene!! Been playing around with it this morning and I think this is going to be super valuable for us.
  15. Roll to Roll UV Printer Purchase

    We've been happy with our UCJV. White point is really good on the white ink. Don't have gloss so can't comment on that part but it's been a good printer for us. It's a good addition if you already have other printers. We've done lots of wall wraps and even box truck wraps with it and...
  16. Suggestions Creating reports for average invoice amount, total invoices per period in Quickbooks Desktop Pro?

    Guess I could've googled it first! Here is how it's done in case anyone is interested: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/reports-and-accounting/where-do-i-find-the-average-transaction-amount/00/969193 Once you generate that report and export to Excel you can quickly calculate...
  17. Suggestions Creating reports for average invoice amount, total invoices per period in Quickbooks Desktop Pro?

    Anyone familiar with creating reports like this out of Quickbooks Desktop Pro? I'm assuming I could export data into a spreadsheet and create formulas to come up with the average invoice amount and count number of invoices for the quarter/year. Just wondering if anyone has experience with...

  19. File Organization

    Good thread, Scott. It's been lots of fun finding files lately since we moved all our working files to our NAS set up.............every single "date modified" is the day I moved the files over. Not exactly the same issue but it made me realize I really need to name my files/job folders better.
  20. White ink printing wholesale??

    Technically, we're not. But I personally don't see an issue with regular members helping out other members if/when merchant members can't/don't offer their services.
