Transfer Tape

We use QMLS Duravinyl variation more than Seal and its a great substrate. We have never had a complaint for short term use at events or for short term murals. The natural air egress of the dot pattern makes install very easy.

Pump at this point is the only other thing I can come up with. Heavy cleaning didn't produce any results? What about capping the printheads and drawing with the syringe thru the capping station tube. That usually gets ink out through the printhead itself.

3m 40 C for permanent murals and such. Looking for low tac removable or short-moderate term, go with a Microdot product. QMLS Duravinyl 157. There are a few other manufacturers of that substrate as well. SEAL being one I believe.

Is the ink supply tube empty? If so...use a syringe to draw the ink through to the damper

We dont use duration x at all. Avery 2923 or 2921 & IJ35. The Briteline shield lam is fine.

We leave ours on when cutting. Doesnt interfere with the blade or anything.

Got it...sounds like you have that worked out well. The tape helps keep things aligned before and during sewing. Had too many issues where a banner comes out of the sewing machine cockeyed and not straight.

HH66 is a bit sloppy unless you have a great method to keep the glue where its supposed to be. We will usually DF tape before sewing. Our boulevard banners if we do them "bulletproof" get heat sealed hems and then doubled over. Street banners are similar but true 4/4 printing on those with...

Been doing this a long time....I still stitch. We havent/don't lose any with wind or storms that way. Always nice to have a client call us and say they had zero issues during a storm with our banners for their clients!

Its both. People just rushing thru the process to submit make the mistake...both newbs and seasoned professionals. I prefer to have bleed especially when trimming stuff. We can always crop out the excess. Its easier to remove than try and add in 99% of cases.

We always use the white underlay strip.

We run into this same issue quite often when having to set up custom cutouts and such. Checking files for PMS colors or a client doesn't do that and we are forced to make adjustments to color. Its usually poor file prep on the client end. I always tell our clients to be sure to outline fonts...

Do you have multiple copies of the same shape there?

No lam needed...but short term only.

$8k yr is cheap in comparison to other companies. That include parts or just phone support?

Out of warranty...yes. Unsupported....no.

Welcome. Hope it works out. Illustrator transparency and RIP software can be iffy at times.

Yea....just a waste of time all around. Years ago I had a client fall for it. We agreed that They paid the cost of the banners at least on my end but it was a costly error on their part for falling for the scam.

Illustrator transparency is screwing you up. Set the transparency to High Res. If that doesn't work, likely have to rasterize.
