  1. What do you suppose is causing this issue?

    Yes the odd time I will see droplets once in a while..they generally stay out of the print area and seem to fall when the head swings back in the opposite direction...When I see this happening I go under and clean the heads with a foam brush and it stops....
  2. What do you suppose is causing this issue?

    This morning I was running a couple of swatches to match a colour...Look at what the orange is doing when the head first passes over that area... Yet when I printed the job it was perfect...only on the sample swatches it did this... Kind of strange. I have given the heads a good soak and a...
  3. A couple questions about Graphic Tracer

    I like the sound of this program.... How many people are using this, and what are the limitations? Is it only used for typesetting or can it trace custom designed graphics?...and how good a job does it do on those?
  4. What do you suppose is causing this issue?

    Thanks. I did do a thorough cleaning this morning, but I think it is more than just a cleaning it needs
  5. What do you suppose is causing this issue?

    I have been seeing this lately from my ancient printer... I have also seen that black prints seem to have some form of overspray onto other colours...very faint mind you...I only seem to see it when wearing reading glasses. The overspray is sometimes there and sometimes not... My Machine is...
  6. Am I being greedy??

    Hopefully the company making them is giving you some form of discount over what someone off the street pays.
  7. How to deal with illustrator masks in Signlab

    I have never really figured out how to deal with a mask in Signlab 8. I currently have a file and when I view it it looks fine but the wire frame shows a lot of the graphics are more than you actually see. The only way I can figure out how to be able to do anything with the file is to break...
  8. This grainy print is relentless

    Can you slow down the speed of the print and run more passes?

  10. Discussion Can you believe it....................... ??

    Plastic razor blade and a steamer speaking of steamers, I won a Conair clothes steamer in a golf tournament a few years ago and I decided to use it for work and it was great in that within a minute the gizmo was forcing steam through the nozzle unlike my Wagner wallpaper steamer which can take...
  11. Need Help Gerber Edge Won't Initialize

    Mine starts beeping at times and won't do anything. I open up (with power off and grounded) and push the boards in better as there is some give on them. I also found that there are a few orange plugs in mine and if I push them down the machine starts up and initializes...every month or so it acts up

    That is awful!!! You could print the graphics and laminate with write erase laminate
  13. Summa not cutting properly

    Make sure it is sequencing the cuts and not going back and forth

    You have to open the first file, then import the second.
  15. enhanced vs normal printing

    I was led to believe that the enhanced option was used when printing 4 colour or gradients and that normal was the mode to use when printing spot colours. Is this correct?
  16. Is there a way to move your plotter forward an inch from the software with out cutting?

    I'm at this point in my life where I really don't have the time or patience to learn new things anymore it seems. My fear is that my 12 year old printer is going to die soon and I will have a major learning curve dealing with a new one. Learning the new printer is not my real fear, but...
  17. Is there a way to move your plotter forward an inch from the software with out cutting?

    Thanks James, only been using Signlab for for 30 years lol
  18. Is there a way to move your plotter forward an inch from the software with out cutting?

    sorry Gino, I am talking strictly cutting vinyl, not printed vinyl
  19. Is there a way to move your plotter forward an inch from the software with out cutting?

    I never really thought about it before but when you are doing multiple cuts. After each section is done I always have to get up and manually move the plotter forward an inch or so as if I just send the next cut file it cuts right where it finished off. I run Signlab and a Graphtec...
  20. How to deal with email attachments which get embeded and no attachment

    I think it is an apple issue as sometimes they can come from the same person as a regular attachment and other times embedded. I use outlook and have not figured out how to get them out.
