Well, I've been "into" large format digital since about 1994... Just not in the "sign" end.

I'm sure it's something that most folks would think is Really Bleepin' Obvious, but hey... I've been paying attention here... I think I've eliminated most of the "maybe it's this" stuff. What I've got now is folks finger-pointing. Sad.

Matthew, I've been screwing around with the combination of a Mutoh Falcon Jr, a Graphtec CE5000-120, and Photoprint for several months now. I had 4.2 or whatever come with the Mutoh. It didn't seem to want to play nice with the drivers for the Graphtec, so my local vendor told me that I would...

Wireless-wise, when I had my router sitting on top of the computer upstairs, the computer downstairs couldn't see it... It's now sitting under the desk.

Newp... Prob being that all to often I end up taking the token computerboy aside, and telling him "You know, if you'd look this up on so-and-so, you'd understand why it won't work. Can we call the clueless vendor now?"

It's time, and I don't wanna mess with peeling stickers this week.

I've got a guy wants some t-shirts witha picture on 'em, and I've got a big ol' stack of 11x17 "green line" transfer paper from alpha supply . Feed one of the 8.5x11sheets to the thing, and then pressed it on a trash shirt, washed it a coupla times, doing fine. So I'm going to be printing a...

Well, SAI who makes flexi also makes the photoprint, which is kinda like "rip rides the short bus." YOu know you're really irritated when you can't sleep on ambien.

Heck with it - I have a photo I need to irritate enough to get it to print a little nicer, but I'm gonna drink a beer and take an ambien, and say night-night... Tomorrow is another frustration.

I don't like the warez for color management. I'm a little particular about that for my photo stuff. I think the out of the box profiles are tweaked toward 'punchy sign' mode...

Okay... Working again. TOO DARN WEIRD. How much RAM do you have? Right now, I've SAI and Graphtec pointing fingers at each other, and my local vendor just looks puzzled... And Big Company and UPS pointing fingers. I'm gonna start breaking off some fingers.

That, and I called a Large Vendor, and ordered a roll of their t-shirt material on Monday night about 6:00. Told 'em to send it next-day on the next day. Welp, I waited around all day today, and no Big Brown Truck. The thing says "billing info received" but nothing more.

I _knew_ I shoulda bought a different RIP...

SAI person had me revert to the default via their little default reverter dealie, etc., etc. - may be in software. Just did a clean and a nozcheck, and it _looks_ fine. I spent an HOUR on hold for that...

ARGH! ARGH! ARGH! ARGH! Where do I start?

Let me know ahead of time, because they be in a warehouse... You know, I'm thinking that I'd really like a nice 30" widescreen... I've also been tempted to hook up the projector in the basement...

www.pixtiva.com - I already feel MUCH more artistic... Now if I can just finish the rest of the site tonight...

I created the contour in Photoprint. I have a couple of hours free today... So I've been on hold for the past half hour...

I've been running CRTs... My LCD seems to color shift as I move around... FWIW, if anyone's in the St. Louis area, I've still got a bunch of the 21" Dell Trinitrons...

Seems there are still folks running at 800x600... Probably a few 648x480... I think I'm running 1280 each on my downstairs monitors, and this widescreen is something like 1680... And I want a web site that'll be easily seen without a lot of scrolling... So, it's poll time...
