  1. Looking to buy printer, 54”

    I have an HP latex and love it. I have to be able to print and go direct to lamination and cutting, and the latex doesn't require any outgassing (time waiting). The maintainance is easy and the ink replacement is super simple. I've had the 315 for 5 years with minimal problems. Like it so...
  2. static cling profile for latex printing

    I have a HP335 and have used Grimco's Briteline IM3208 in the past for COVID signs I made. They're still holding up pretty good, clings are posted on my outer glass building doors.
  3. Color code: red 23 & blue 94 ?

    Did you ever find out what the color numbers referenced? I'm sure you figured it out since january when you first posted the thread. I'm curious to know the outcome......
  4. Bleeds in Flexi Production Manager

    I also have Flexi and a HP335 printer. What is it that you're printing? How large? I have never used flexi to set up tile printing for me, it always seems to let me down. If I'm printing an item what needs overlapping (like a wall mural), I'll splice (crop) each panel on the the wall graphic...
  5. What is best profile to convert RGB to CMYK in photoshop?

    I agree on lettng the RIP software do the conversion. I have Flexi as my RIP, and always let it do the RGB to CMYK conversion instead of photoshop. Doing so seems to give me brighter colors when the item prints, mainly because my RIP software knows how to convert it correctly to my 6 color...
  6. Rigid roll vinyl recommendation

    I'll email you.
  7. Rigid roll vinyl recommendation

    Thanks :) Will do.
  8. Rigid roll vinyl recommendation

    We used to print on vinyl, laminate it, then mount it onto sheets of 020 styrene, but it took so long to do that, we were loosing $ on labor time...plus we'd always ended up getting a few bubbles trapped here and there. If we have to, we can start doing that again, but we'd prefer not to...
  9. Rigid roll vinyl recommendation

    I create 28X44" "posters" that go into outdoor frames (stand frames and wall frames, that have a backer-board). I normally use RTape Synaps OM Polyester Film 14 mil and laminate it with Drytac Interlam Pro Emerytex 4 mil, printed on an HP335. This seems to be the right combination of vinyl...
  10. Starflex banner material

    Has anyone used Starflex gloss 13oz banner material before? My supplier is recommending it, but I've never used it before. I'd run it on a HP Latex. Any feedback from those who have used it before would be appreciated. Thanks :)
  11. Maybe stupid question about vinyl and lam

    no ink, no lam. The lam could be the first thing to peel off down the road anyways.
  12. Application roller add-on kit?

    Hey folks, I'm looking into some sort of an application roller for my 5X8' Rhino work table. Having an application roller table would save me so much time, but I don't want to invest in a whole table setup. Is there such thing as an add-on kit? Something that straddles my table and is on...
  13. work table recommendation

    Speedpress is the distributor that sells the Rhino mat replacements. They sell for under $200 for the 5X10' mats, so I'll probably go in that direction. Since we really only have 1 working table, everything gets cut on it. I guess having it last for 5 years is pretty good, and at only $200 to...
  14. work table recommendation

    Interesting.... Y'all got it covered it sounds like. I only have the 1 table, wouldn't have time to have the clearcoat dry out. I like your ideas though. Thanks!
  15. work table recommendation

    Hmmm, thats interesting. Doesn't it get cut up too much? Whats the thickness of the sheet? Also, is it opaque or translucent? I have a paper grid underneath my mat that needs to show through. I'm intrigued. Can you snap a photo? Thanks.
  16. work table recommendation

    I'm curious what everyone else is using for their main work table. I presently have the Rhino work table that has a cutting mat on it. With 5 years of use now, there are so many cut marks on it, plus when I do wet mounting the solution gets trapped in the cuts and has warped the mat. It's to...
  17. 10mm coroplast cut tool?

    Lucky dog, getting a CNC router. Wish we had the budget for one. Have fun with it!
  18. 10mm coroplast cut tool?

    That includes our design time, unless there are multiple edits, etc; then we start charging $125 per hour (to to dissuade folks from going overtime on edits) We normally include up to 1 hour of design time with our price.
