  1. Blues print purple

    What exactly are your attempting to print that's coming out wrong? Vector? Bitmap? Gradient" And what are your rendering intents?
  2. Need Help Disclaimer for too much information / text?

    Most likely that information would be under the red block-out.
  3. Waste Ink

    Ridiculous. Reported? Caught? For tossing a relatively minuscule amount of waste ink is the trash? By whom? Convicted of such heinous behavior by what court? As one of my old philosophy mentors was wont to say, don't be an a$$. Although he spelled it properly.
  4. Waste Ink

    Whether you have it carted off by people in hazmat suits or just toss it in the trash, it will have the same effect. None whatsoever.
  5. Change file from cmyk to rgb

    I decided, based on pragmatic experience after ~20 years of large format printing.
  6. Change file from cmyk to rgb

    It shouldn't matter a bit what printer he might be wrangling. CMYK for vector objects and always RGB for bitmaps. Just so you know, you're not texting or sending a telegram, you can spell out words here with no penalty.
  7. Edge curling on solvent murals

    Whether or not edges curl on a full bleed has absolutely nothing to do with most, if not all, of the nonsense listed above. Nothing, nada, zip, zero. The determining factor is just what media you're printing. Most media needs white borders to prevent curing, some does not. It has to do with the...
  8. Spraying liquid laminate

    Water.
  9. Spraying liquid laminate

    I've used Clear Shield for years. Be sure to use 'original formula' or 'classic'. Don't use any other formulation. Without a liquid laminator for myself, thinning the Clear Shield until it's about like whole milk or a mite thicker. Then mop it on with a foam brush. The liquid settles level, just...
  10. Computer type

    Overkill. Get something with 16Gb, I5 even I3 with an SSD sufficiently large to contain your stuff. For output to printers and plotters, since they're all buffered, all the machine has to do is keep up with the buffering, not an onerous task. Running Corel, Flexi, whatever simultaneously, you're...
  11. Gassing out Eco solv printed media.

    Maaco et. al. are painting with enamels, synthetic or real, which do not cure via evaporation.
  12. Gassing out Eco solv printed media.

    Vinyl is gas permeable. Liquid laminate, which is acrylic, is not.
  13. Gassing out Eco solv printed media.

    Yet he's the only one that got it right. If a print can pass the fingertip glide test, the solvent has pretty much evaporated. This shouldn't take more than a few minutes. However the chemical changes in the media fomented by the ink coating most like have not stabilized. That can take more time...
  14. Discussion HP R1000 tilling and join panels issue

    Apropos of nothing...Measuring something in thousands of minuscule units is meaningless. Measuring something that large in millimeters is ridiculous. Few humans can deal with 1 part in 100 let alone one part in 2 or 3 thousand. Yet Another reason why the English human-centric system is far...
  15. For All the Facebook Lovers

    `A step in the right direction. The world would be a far better place without the facebook.
  16. Stanchion pole cap removal

    If it went on and it's not welded in place it'll come off. Fundamental principal of mechanics.
  17. CALENDARED VINYL with MATTE OVERLAM for print & cut vehicle decals

    First, using calendared media instead of cast means that you get to save, quite literally, a few cents. Not worth it. Then, after looking at your photo, I've never before seen properly installed laminate lift off the media like this. This would lead one to believe that it wasn't properly...
  18. Printer for Canvas Art

    Use whatever printer gets you off. Since no one will ever know what the original looks like, don't fret overmuch about precise color. Forget all of the hand dandy gee whiz canvas mounting an stretcher systems. While some are quite clever, all are criminally overpriced. Rather spend a few minutes...
  19. Need Help How to stop phishing emails being sent from my address after email being compromised

    Why should I have to engage the services of a password manager? I derive little to no benefit from all of these passwords. As previously noted, they exist, for the most part, to protect those demanding that I use a password. Not my problem and therefore not interested in participating in their...
  20. Need Help How to stop phishing emails being sent from my address after email being compromised

    Why should I inconvenience myself in order to protect someone else? Of all of the passwords a person is expected to juggle only a minuscule number are protecting you from anything. The vast majority exist to protect those that demand you use and somehow keep track of Yet Another password. My...
