We did the external backup thing for years, and it is a very good option, as long as you are vigilant about swapping them out. If you are like us and you get lazy or forget it's pointless. I've got enough stuff to try and remember on a daily basis.

We have a dedicated PC in the front office set up as a file server, it's accessible by every computer in the shop. the PC has 3 HDD inside it, all set up to be copies of each other (not sure the exact term RAID something or other) This computer is also backed up with carbonite in real time, so...

A majority of our wall graphics are in hospitals, we can not use an unlaminated material, period. If a patient bleeds or vomits etc on the wall (it's happened) there is absolutely no way to clean it from a wall paper or fabric media, laminated vinyl can be cleaned properly. Even in a less...

Lol you really think you don't need to laminate wall graphics or floor graphics?!?! You can't be serious, can you?? What happens when your client calls you because the mild cleaner they used to try to clean a scuff marks off the wall pulled off the ink? What about in a hospital envirnment...

When we bought our first Roland the sales guy said the same thing, no need to laminate, while it's technically true, it really is extremely bad advice to give anyone. If you want to put out the best product you can, it needs to be laminated, there is no magic printer than can print on vinyl and...

Do you have a source for this? One of our biggest clients is a childrens hospital, we do a ton of wall graphics for them on our Roland, never once have they even asked what ink type was used. The only concern is that they are laminated so they can be properly cleaned.

You need to run a peck report to get that info.

There is a 1.5mm thick non glare acrylic available, this is a link to the canadian Grimco site, but i would imagine you could get the same thing down south. Grimco Plastics » Acrylic »...

anything you can get for under $400 will be garbage, no exceptions. you really do get what you pay for. A roll of vinyl is worth more than $400!

What are your reasons for wanting to get into sign maintenance? Do you have experience in the field? We don't have a bucket truck, when we need one we farm the install out to someone who has one. Most of these guys worked for a large sign company doing installs before they branched out on...

If I I derstand you correctly, you are trying to print right to the edge do you don't have to trim the graphics after they are printed? If so, it's not going to happen, even if the printer is capable of printing to the edge, if there is any drift in the media your panels won't line up.

Nevermind, just looked at HP's website, it's called the latex 315, it's not a print/cut, it's a printer and a plotter sold together as a package, how is this news worthy? Every single shop that has a latex printer already has a stand alone plotter... Unless i'm missing something it looks like...

For years you have been saying printer/cutters are the stupidest invention, they drag down production etc. Now that HP has brought one out it's amazing....

It looks like the same material you see used in commercial walk in freezers hanging in strips in the door.

I never said noone clicked on them, I said it didn't lead to any new business.

I have run 2-3 campaigns from Adwords, none of them have resulted in any business increase. Now granted I didn't spend a ton of money, probably only $500-$800 in total, but I consider it to be a complete waste of money. It may work better for you if you have an e-commerce site where people can...

I'm not familiar with the Latex machines, but I would grab an infared thermometer gun and test the different areas of the heater when it's running, see if the areas that are not curing are a different temp.

You can use Automark by General Formulations for this, you wouldn't need to cut out the rivits either.
