Not worth the upgrade price, in my opinion. Really, are there enough new features to warrant a new major version? Seems more like Omega 5.2 to me. The price they charge makes the old Adobe CS prices seem cheap!

We use a variety of 3M & MacTac laminates, and we get this line on all of them. Like you noticed, it happens right where the backer separates from the laminate. It has something to do with how the adhesive behaves when it is not pulled off evenly and smoothly, and you can see this effect on...

Sorry, I can't find any service manuals. However, I did find a Carriage Ink/Air Diagram document, which states:

We had asked our reps about running G5 inks in our M4f. First, they said it might work; but then when they checked into it a bit further, they found out that it would not actually work. If I remember correctly, it was because the print heads did not have an integrated heater. So if your Dilli...

The readout gives the profile name which happens to contain the media name. TexPrintXP is a dye-sub media, so this is dye-subbed on to what you have.

http://www.konicaminolta.com/inkjet/inkjethead/1024/spec.html KM's spec sheet gives options of 6 (KM1024S*), 14 (KM1024M*), & 42 pl (KM1024L*) drops. But the heads do have 8 level grayscale, so I wouldn't be surprised if that's how Agfa's getting 12pl out of the 14pl KM1024MNB head.

MacTac ColorGard LUV is what was recommended to me for use with our UV printer. It comes in 3 different sheens - matt, lustre, and gloss. It's supposed to be more flexible to go over the slightly raised UV print.

Cutting styrene with a normal double-bevel knife raises a burr on either side of the cut line. You can get single-bevel knives that will push the burr to only one side of the cut line. You do have to make sure each path cuts the proper direction so the bevel of the knife is always towards the...

Are you sure they are 12pl? I thought the m2 had 14pl heads. Here's some 14pl ones: http://www.digiprint-supplies.com/konica-km1024-mn-14pl.html

Yeah, I wasn't sure if you had the static kit or not. How much of a difference do you see using the static bar vs not using it?

Thanks, I'll have to try that. Do you go over both sides of the substrate, or just the side you're printing on?

No, my printer makes very nice solid colors. The banding you're getting is perpendicular to the head travel, so that would rule out bad lamps, sticking shutters, missing nozzles, or ink starvation since the banding is the wrong direction. What would cause banding in that direction could be a bad...

Anybody on here have the CET static reduction kit? How well does it work for you guys? And if you don't mind, I'd appreciate pics of how it is installed on the machine. We're thinking about getting it and installing it ourselves, but I'd like some feedback from current users first. I just ran...

SSD's lack of longevity is mostly a myth. TechReport.com did a long-term torture test of 5 different SSDs. If you are curious, the final article is here: http://techreport.com/review/27909/the-ssd-endurance-experiment-theyre-all-dead The end result was that all the SSDs surpassed their official...

Yeah, opacity masks are what you want. Here are a few links to instructions on how to use them: http://www.vectordiary.com/tips-and-tricks/opacity-mask/ http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/how-to-use-opacity-masks-in-adobe-illustrator-cs6.html

Sorry, I can't help you. They must have changed the design with the newer printers. Wow, that's exactly what our problem is. And they are blaming the environment in our case also.

On our Q5, the positive pressure pump is a separate pump in the carriage, and would not be fixed by replacing the negative pressure pumps. That one might be failing, which could be causing your slow positive pressure buildup. Interesting. We are currently having negative pressure issues, too...

Try searching for word cloud generators. Here's one that allows downloading as svg: https://www.jasondavies.com/wordcloud/#%2F%2Fwww.jasondavies.com%2Fwordcloud%2Fabout%2F

View menu, click "show smooth drawing" (at bottom of fifth group). If it turns on after closing and re-opening Composer, make sure you have the latest version of Composer. One version back they had the problem that the smooth drawing would always be on, and you couldn't turn it off. The latest...

When cutting complicated designs, acceleration is just as important, if not more important, than top speed. I looked at the acceleration of a few cutters: Kongsberg XP24: 15m/s² - 1.5G Summa F: 9.8m/s² - 1G Zund G3: 9.1m/s² - 0.92G Kongsberg XL24 / XN24: 5.6m/s² - 0.56G Kongsberg V: 2.9m/s² -...
