  1. Question Multi-Layered Printing?

    The FB550 doesn't print in-line 3 layers???
  2. CM 4 3.70 will not load on the latest update of IL2021

    I just looked...we are still running 25.0.1. Hadn't run cutting master in a while but something was still different about it nonetheless. Ill wait on this update for a while then.
  3. Advice on media for unlaminated decals for a new latex owner

    We adjust the blade a tick and add pressure. The issue with putting the blade down more, is when the material travels back and forth....it can scratch the print or cut as the carriage works back and forth.
  4. CM 4 3.70 will not load on the latest update of IL2021

    Got it. Thanks for the heads up...some jobs we do we need CM.
  5. Advice on media for unlaminated decals for a new latex owner

    6mil isn't anything new...we've done that quite often. On our graphtec, we run at least 30 on our plotter for that media. Its likely you won't break anything.
  6. Need Help Digital Print Rip programs

    Are you running other printers as well as the JV33?
  7. CM 4 3.70 will not load on the latest update of IL2021

    Haven't updated to latest Illy yet. Ill check it out in the AM when I get back to the office...and see what happens. Usually just copy the plugin into illy to get it going again. We cut quite often in caldera for most part...
  8. Question Multi-Layered Printing?

    If you have White ink on your FB...it depends if you have 3 layer capabilities on it. I know on our AGFA printer we do multi layer all the time.
  9. Advice on media for unlaminated decals for a new latex owner

    Welcome aboard. IJ35 is nice for a gray backed vinyl. Take a look at Avery 2921EZ as well. Check your pressure on the plotter....thats really all you need to do. Otherwise a slight cutting depth increase in the blade.
  10. Does anyone here have experience with type II wall coverings?

    From what I have heard & read, on the smaller latex printers is the color consistency from panel to panel. We do not experience that with our large latex 1500s.
  11. Amateur banner question

    I would hope...But I really don't think you'll be able to get it tight along that span without it sagging and as signhere said, its a huge freaking sail even with wind slits. Do some math on the wind load. 2 single sided banners with multiple posts along the run would likely be better. Double...
  12. Amateur banner question

    A pair of 4x4s for a single 50 ft banner?
  13. Amateur banner question

    We've been doing this a long time....a wedge welder will do the double sided banner but its possible you will have scrapes and such along the Visual opening as you go along with it. Even on our miller hot air welder, the nozzle comes in and can cause some issues. Down in Florida there, you...
  14. Need Help Is it possible to put clearcoat on vinyl?

    We have had clients clear coat vinyl after airbrushing on prints we have done or lacquered onto a floor. As uncle said above....fix the vinyl and then if you feel the need, clear coat over the entire thing.
  15. Need Help Industrial CNC brand router

    I know who you are. We did white ink primarily for you for some election stuff. Colex has been around for a while. The equipment is made well and strong. Everything is built here in NJ.
  16. Need Help Industrial CNC brand router

    If you need cameras for print/cut, just get one that has it. Trust me, not having cameras is a big deal. Colex has been excellent for us going on 4+ years now. Well made and great support. Camera issues here and there...but support worked it out.
  17. HP FB550 - Cold Weather problems? Solutions?

    If you keep the printer on overnight, does that keep the heads warm? I know we come in the morning with our Agfa to warm it up for about 20 min...quick purge and all good. Does the HP have an auto clean cycle?
  18. Need Help Stand Up Sign

    Hey Chuck...we're just over the border in NJ here. Life-size cutouts are not an issue for us. We would be happy to help out
  19. Question Something about the Riot makes no sense to me

    Have to look in the gutter and sewers to find the crackpots too.
  20. Question Something about the Riot makes no sense to me

    Well...I hope the FBI finds the sh*t brick that bashed the cop in the head and killed him. See how political that is then. "OK. They weren't when Comey came out when they were investigating Clinton. Y'all are such a wishy washy bunch." Good point.
