  1. Ink Levels in Versaworks.

    When the printer says you are out of ink, take out the ink from the machine, you will see a little white tab sticking out on the back of it, take a knife and cut that down flush, insert back in and keep printing. Don't print more than about 10 sq ft of that color or you run the risk of drying...
  2. Ink Levels in Versaworks.

    Fear not because it will give you a low ink warning before a print, most of the time you can still print a ton. If it stops part way through, just pop out the ink, cut the tab, stick back in and finish the job.

    I use Corel X8. But if a customer provides their "logo" and it's a nasty file, a lot of times they don't want you to touch it. I've tried cleaning up things before and they tell me that I altered it and need to redo it how it was sent to me. It's always a losing battle for sign shops.

    This is how bad the artwork was when I imported it. Apparently someone traced it or attempted to steal it off something like shutterstock and didn't bother to clean it up. However I didn't produce that banner, their box truck, their sponsors sign or any of their other stuff. So this is the only...

    See? It's not a router issue.
  6. Sales Assistance

    I have quite a bit of experience with sales people. They can help you or ruin you. Here are some issues I ran into with different people. 1. Going out for the whole day and not coming back with any business cards, new information or anything. 2. Saying they are going to blah blah business which...
  7. Signs 365 my new go to for banners

    That is true, they want it sooner and rush you, but if it takes longer they end up being okay with it like it didn't matter.
  8. Signs 365 my new go to for banners

    Well there is another issue with subbing out. Sometimes your banners will have deflects, will be the wrong order, didn't arrive in time, was printed on billboard quality or the quality was bad, etc. Say your customer must have the banner for an event by Thursday afternoon, the event is Friday...
  9. Signs 365 my new go to for banners

    If your doing one or two a month then yes. But if you are doing at least a half dozen a month it's worth it. I am the lowest on banners at $5.75 / sq. ft. in town, next closest is $7. A roll of 54" X 120' of banner material is $92.99, I just printed two banners that are 50" X 12' 6" and charged...

    Still cheaper to print your own. I pay about 52 cents a sq ft doing it myself.

    Rick's sole goal on this forum is to make me look like an idiot. The original line was 0.8" wide, That is too thin to use 1/4" thread alls and would be breakable, I increased it to 1.5" wide. All letters were thickened with an outline to fatten them up. Some strokes were thin. Having a 1/4" stud...

    It's the angle you are viewing it from, that is me standing on the ground taking a photo up at it. It's accurate.

    Wall painted, now I will never post another one of my job photos again.

    I need a 60" roll of vinyl but only 58" or less will be printed.

    Even though it's not my fault and the customer didn't ask for the wall to be painted, I told her this morning that I will touch up the wall for her on my dime. So some of you can get off my back.

    I suspected nothing less than an ass of a comment from you.

    They didn't go with that option, they preferred the white acrylic to have the white edge.
