    Anggun Sans Regular
  2. Need help pricing

    I start at $15/sq ft.
  3. Gerber Edge 2 printing issues

    You're printing with the exact roll of material and foil and getting different results on the second Edge? If so, then I'd suggest cleaning the printhead and if that doesn't help, check your heat settings and make sure their identical to the second Edge that's printing correctly.
  4. Gerber Edge 2 printing issues

    Based off the picture alone, I would say you're not using Edge ready materials. I would suggest a test run with Gerber Foils and 3M vinyl. I've had this exact same problem and it almost always comes back to using a ZeroNine foil on a specialty vinyl.
  5. Templates and vectors

    I made a "Sticky Foot" years ago. It's a light blue magnet that is exactly one foot long and says Sticky Foot on it. Slap it on any vehicle and take a photo. Easy to scale up, but I still take final measurements once the vehicle is here before cutting or printing.
  6. Looking for someone that offers Direct To Garment DTG on dark shirts

    You'll have trouble with the sweatshirts. Direct to Garment printing needs 100% cotton or really high cotton to poly count. There are only a few manufacturers that have such a thing.
  7. Printing issue

    I only pushed the question, because if you call Gerber Tech Support, that is the first question they ask. If you're not using Gerber foil and vinyls, they won't help you until you do and get the same result. Now, have you tried printing a block of solid color? What were the results?
  8. Long Lasting Outdoor Fabric

    May I ask why you're using fabric around a sign frame? How long is the client expecting it to last?
  9. Contour cut window graphics

    Find a shop that will do the job. Ask them their cost. Mark that up as per your standard on materials. That's what you charge. All of your pricing should be based off your costs. Not what other shops are charging. Different geographic locations will bring in different costs. Personally...
  10. close but can't quite get it

    Kinda looks like Swiss Light Condensed.
  11. Printing issue

    Post a pic after cleaning the head and running a fresh test print. Another quick question, you said you were using Gerber foil, but it's not clear if you're using Gerber vinyl. I know it sounds crazy, but I've had issues in the past that when I switched to a Gerber vinyl, there wasn't a...
  12. Printing issue

    Down to 65 shouldn't be an issue. We set our overnight temp at 64 and have no issue with our Edge printing first thing in the morning. Have you had any data errors? Have you tried just running a simple test print that's 1" - 4" x 11.8" on the same material and settings to see if it has the...
  13. Printing issue

    When was the last time you cleaned the print head? Are you using Gerber vinyl and foils? How cold is "colder than normal?" Do you have the correct materials selected for what is printing? Is it only this job that's printing incorrectly or any job you send? If the former, trying clearing out...
  14. Looking for Small piece of oracle 951 677

    I'd do the same, and sorry, but it's not something I have in stock. I don't think I've ever used a metallic green actually. Good luck finding a piece. On a side note, you can get a 15" yard of it from Fellers. Maybe if you call, you could even get a sample (which is usually s square foot)...
  15. Corel or Adobe?

    I run Gerber machines, so I have Composer, but also have the Corel Suite.
  16. Vehicle installation pricing

    I prefer not to install supplied graphics just because you never know what could go wrong during installation and you're screwed if it gets ruined. BUT, if I chose to do the install, I'd probably be around $125-195. I'm assuming they're not covering the whole side and the job should take 1-2...
  17. Pricing Advice

    I use the SignCraft pricing guide to get base costs. I've been using it a long time so I have my little work arounds for different materials and things I know should be more or less than what I get from their numbers. Most of the time, my goal is to have cost of goods be a third of the overall...
  18. Any thoughts on the design

    I would have cut the posts so they don't go over the top of the sign. You've routed the shape, might as well let it be seen instead of hindered by the ugly posts. I'm not a fan of Rage Italic, so not digging the fonts. Like stated you've got a lot of info on the sign, but I think it could be...
  19. Anyone know?

    I've got nothing that matches exact. But can't you talk them out of it? It's horrible.
  20. Does Fellers short everybody on small orders of "vinyl by the yard"?

    I've had it happen in the past. A quick call and they ship out another piece. Sure, it sucks if you need it right now for a job.
