Attached is a file of Pantone color swatches. Please open this file with your graphics application, select all, and copy and paste into a new document in your software. Save the new document as your own Pantone test file. Otherwise, you will be looking at colors generated by my software. Print...

This depends a lot on your printers and intended print materials. If your printer prints with spot color inks then you will need a Pantone swatch book only. If your printer uses CMYK inks then you will need a Color Bridge book showing the difference (bridge) between TRUE spot color formulated...

Yes, PVO has it on their site for download once you log in.

I would just buy a few yards of 60" wrap vinyl and cut it out of that. No seams. Seaming across the top wouldn't be that bad either if you are limited to under 48"

I just want to add one small bit of info to this thread that is not mentioned yet. When we had the full solvent Mimaki JV3 printers we did spend on average 20 minutes cleaning or running test draws and checking for clogged nozzles before prints. With the most recent generation of Epson (ours are...

Color consistency. 99% of our work here is paneled large wraps/murals. I don't want to wonder what a replacement panel is going to print like when it is needed. Have a 54' truck lose a panel during install or lamination, then try to reprint that panel the same color.... and it doesn't match...

Welcome!

With those deep nasty dirt, vegetation, etc filled crevices I don't think any material would stick besides something like 480 and you'd have to roll every inch of that. I sure wouldn't trust any of our regular outdoor pavement graphics on that surface.

IJ480 is the vinyl you're gonna want to use, and have a 3M Certified Installer put it on for you. We're getting ready to do one this month here ourselves for a food bus. They're not fun at all.

Call Onyx and they'll tell you the minimum version you need to run your combo. We have a couple different versions here on our rip stations. We've had 1 rip running Mimaki, HP and Epsons all at once. We still run our CG130FXII here through Onyx.

You can adjust the opacity of the white ink by adjusting the opacity or percentage in your artwork file to achieve different looks with white inks. Same as you can print any amount of other ink colors. I'd guess you're looking for "solid white" (100% ink fill) leaves, but the surrounding areas...

I know this is not what you requested, but I really really recommend the GFP laminators. We have 2 here and laminate a crap ton of vinyl every day without issue.

I'd have them get in touch with their dealer immediately.

This is a mail services truck built on a golf cart body. First one I've seen, but maybe yall will run into them soon also? 1/10 scale.

Never heard about it until now. Thank you. Downloaded it and tried it already today, will be buying it!

Here is a band trailer template; I'm sure no two are the exact same, but hopefully this helps someone get a good start on one. 1/10 scale.

I agree with trying to recover some of the nozzles in the test print first. After that you can try the print head alignment and calibration. What software are you using to print (RIP), what vinyl are you printing on? (some gives bad prints even with good profiles)

We used the make-up applicator wedges from the dollar store without issue when I worked at a previous print shop.

We trim a couple of 1/8 and 1/4" strips of laminate off of our laminate rolls with our slitter before we laminate. Makes it easier on the laminator with no hang-over and you get FREE rolls of edge seal tape. Our slitter is one of the best purchases we've made here.

Heads aren't in that great of shape, hence the grainy prints. Also, the material feed between passes needs adjusted. I can't recall 100% what it's called but it is adjusted on the machine itself base doff the "baseline" calibration that is done when you align the heads. You might have to start...
