  1. Question On Print/Cut which one is better?

    all of the products you listed should be laminated, so they need to be removed from the printer, laminated and put back in the machine, which eliminates any benefit to the print/cut workflow, and in fact hurts it, say you have a large decal order, with a seperate printer and cutter, you can be...
  2. Frosted and printable

    could be LexEdge printed on a Gerber Edge printer
  3. Need Help Laser Engraving Filteration

    What are you cutting? We vent ours outside, I cant imagine a filter being able to remove the smell when cutting acrylic.
  4. File Management

    We have a PC in the front office set up as a file server, the PC has 3 HDD's in it set up in a RAID, the PC is also connected to Carbonite and backs up in real time to the cloud. If I need to access the files from home ( I try not to bring work home with me if I can avoid it) I can access the...
  5. S40600 ink cart NOT empty

    if someone has a very accurate scale it should be easy to figure out without busting open a full cart. take a spent cartridge, drain all the ink into a jar that you know the empty weight of, figure out the weight of say 50 ml of ink, then weigh a full cartridge and subtract the weight of the...

  9. Need Help Cutting a full roll of media, how best to manage the material?

    Just cut it like you normally would, send the first batch, let it cut, then set up for the second, unless I'm missing something it doesn't seem like a big deal, you may have to readjust the media between runs if the vinyl shifts, bit it shouldn't if it's loaded properly.
  10. How to mount a roll of prints to 4x8 sheets

    I can't think of a way to do that that will allow you to properly register the prints to the sheet. The correct way is to cut the prints apart and mount them one at a time. If the quantity is large enough that that would be a burden, these should be flatbed printed directly on the PVC. We...
  11. Vinyl Rippling

    I'm not positive, but logic would dictate they should be wider wn the outside.
  12. Vinyl Rippling

    When we had a vg machine, I had the same issue, turned out the 2 outer pinch rollers were installed backwards from the factory, they are slightly tapered to pull the vinyl out slightly as it prints, but when installed backwards it bunches the media.
  13. Builders ugghh!

    I've done this before, just have the contractor sign a packing slip saying the signs were received in good order, if there are any damages to them it's on them. One of our larger clients is a contractor, we do tons of interior ADA signs for them (supply only, no install) there have been a few...
  14. Punched vinyl issues

    I noticed the last 10 - 15 feet of Oracal punched rolls the holes don't line up with the sprockets, to the point where I just account for it and throw the rolls out when they get close to the end
  15. Making Perforated Labels on Versacamm

    I would use an adhesive paper product, Roland makes one, that way you don't need to perforate it.
  16. PVC free print film for laser cutting?

    We cut regular vinyl on our 2 lasers on occasion, never had any issues
  17. Which is has the most aggressive vinyl?

    I would think the wrap film would be better at dealing with the extreme temperature in a dishwasher, but for maximum durability get them laser engraved, or at the least UV printed.
  18. Need Help CorelDraw 2018 to Chinese Laser

    I would ask over at the engraving forum @ sawmill creek, they know their lasers there
  19. News HP Issued New Service Update with Flat Rate Pricing???

    seems to follow their business model for their desktop printers, with their ink subscription program where you pay a flat fee per month based on how many pages you print and they ship you enough ink cartridges to print that many pages each month. On one hand it's nice to know exactly how much...
  20. This was a first for me.....

    I thought the USA was supposed to be more business friendly! I've never had to get anything like this, I have a business licence with the provincial and federal government, I've never heard of a local government requiring a permit to do business in their town, except for a sign permit. Crazy...
