Talk to your 3M rep and have them get you a 3M Wall Test Kit.

You will still have the same trouble cutting before printing. Actually, I bet it will be worse. You HAVE to wait until the decals FULLY outgass before you can plot the vinyl. I assume you're not laminating or waiting (on the solvents to outgass) to laminate either?

Check your outlet is working. Check your cables are firmly plugged into the machine. Check the power switch on the REAR of the machine is "on". Check the power switch on the front of the machine is "on". The next steps require you to open panels on the machine and check fuses.

THIS. Put some laminate that has rounded corners encapsulating it 1/8" all around over the graphic.

No matter HOW you print them, aren't you going to have to cut them and transfer tape them???

I think you are looking for Imposition software, possibly "Quite Imposing" or "Fiery RIP" would make good choices? Been quite a while since I used those softwares.

If you have Acrobat Pro, you can open the pages window and then right click on a page and "extract page" into a new PDF document.

I think you are referring to the 80600 series. We have seen it demo'd and it looks even more awesome than our current generation 70670/70675 printers that we love. We run Onyx 11 here and do a LOT of large prints/runs. Tried latex and wasn't happy, so we went with Epson and love it.

We are offering next-day service and returned phone calls. (Monday!) Have a great weekend, and don't work too hard if you have to come in Friday! ;)

Check your blade with a loupe, it probably needs changed. Ours get "mysteriously damaged" here occasionally, I think a bit of grit gets picked up by static off the floor sometimes and the blade tip gets chipped off. However, if taking the blade holder out and re-seating it "helps" then your...

The printers I am talking about above are Epson SureColor S70670 and an Epson SureColor S70675. We also have Gerber Edge Thermal printers which do a fair amount of printing on white also.

We do a good amount of prints on clear and also use the white ink for other things. We use Epson SureColor Eco-Solvent printers. They do a great job for us. HOWEVER, we still have yet to use the (other, optional) metallic ink for any retail job.

Talk with your local salesperson and tell them to keep a roll or two in stock there. Who are you ordering from? Fellers takes good care of us here on 3M products.

No idea what "textile vinyl" is. There are tons of "clear vinyls" of different degrees of clarity. Optically clear vinyl might be what you want, but it has to be applied wet.

Variable data is also built into InDesign. Make your single-up file in InDesign and run the variable data program to generate your new doc of all the "finished" data. Then export that into a PDF and then place those into a new IN or IL document. Protip: Put the "CutContour" spot color in the...

Sounds like there are a lot of options, we use Onyx RIP to drive multiple printers/plotters here.

Reflexite by Oracal "SHOULD" be cut-able, but not for small pieces, I know it is solvent printable. Avery also just came out with some new similar reflective vinyls, I only have some small samples of them though so I have never tried printing on them. Either way, you're going to have to do a...

You can use just about any no-curl banner. You can use any matte laminate, if you want to be fancy use a floor laminate. No one is really going to scratch these up. You can hand cut new "hanger tabs" from thin sintra/plastic/pvc stock if you have an original as a template. You can buy magnet...

I think I've tried most brands, and I almost exclusively use 3M products whenever possible.

Be careful using online generators, as a lot of the time they go through a "proxy" of their own to get you to the info and track you. Also, if their proxy/site ever goes down all your decals are now junk. A customer of ours had a hot air balloon "printed" with a QR code they made through an...
