Google FDA food facility standards.. likely find the codes. its only a freaking sign!

The "designers" at many ad agencies have similar issues with understanding the science of prepress to press. It's not a forgiving work we do. But they get the scroll and think they've become an expert. I've had better luck herding cats. its only a freaking sign!

Oh and a tip.. proper terminology... k for black, magenta not red, cyan not blue.. unless your running a dye based inkset. On that note.. if you flush you have the opportunity to switch ink brands.. most suppliers have ink swap deals to get your business.. shop them. its only a freaking sign!

I've moved lots of inkjets, from little ones to the giant 5 meter machines. During transit air can back flow into the ink train. I always plan to fully drain and flush with head flush at the receiving end. Likely that started your issue. You said you hear air sucking when doing a syringe pull...

I've seen minor overspray from static, had one user here last week with that. But not as radical as the photo. Makes me wonder what physical issue is causing only cyan to be sensitive to static. Maybe the head isn't grounded properly. I'm trying to remember if the k head or the c head has the...

It's odd I've only seen this occur on the cyan channel. My machines done it twice and I've seen several posts here all with cyan. I wonder if it may have some head board issue that causes cyan to kill it's head early.? As stated a new head with proper head rank codes does fix it. What's gone...

Agreed. But the free PDF I found online was riddled with virus. Really wish the idiots at Roland would just publish the thing online instead of trying to sell machine owners service contracts. its only a freaking sign!

Vanderj. Roland doesn't sell them. I've tried to get them from Roland multiple times. One reason I'd never buy one of their machines new in box. its only a freaking sign!

A spectrophotometer will let you take readings of the L*a*b values (real world) of the color and then get your rip setup for the nearest color match from your printer. The spectrophotometer paired with software allows you to calibrate your printer and monitors. This is an overly simplified...

It's not just lettering tho.. there is a part of it that requires respect for the insignia and the fire service. No corner cutting.. Pretty much use your best skills and media to make quality the most important thing. Fire engine builders like Pierce and Rosenbauer, and their predecessors...

What kind of info do you want to see? I'm working with a publishing group to make self paced sign industry courses based on defined standards. Would something like that be interesting? There are national standards for school buses in the federal laws, even defining "national school bus yellow"...

Old machine tells me you need to replace the dampers, wipers, cap stations and sponges. The dampers act to balance pressure differences in weather and temperature changes, and as filters. They are disposable. Pull straight up on them, do not rock them or wiggle, that will break the port right...

The aluminum ring is just a protective retainer. The heads function without it.. but there are two tiny mm screws that set into nuts that are held by potting cement.. they hold the manifold on. If you don't get the nut on there right it will leak. Take the manifold back off, reseat the seals...

Do you have a spectrophotometer? its only a freaking sign!

You need to check the firmware on your Sabre with Gerber to see if it's compatible.. older models had 4mb RAM, to run auto carve you need 16mb RAM. I was told that my Sabre would need a new main board upgrade to handle the larger files carving uses. Which sucks because the old auto carve in...

There's really not something there that should leak. But above that are two ports on the port riser. The tiny seals between the manifold riser and the head body often dry out and leak, and the ink flows down to the steel ring. Often inexperienced users buy heads that have seals for water based...

Why would you use perf film on a solid surface like a floor? Or is it a clear flooring,? its only a freaking sign!

NEVER NEVER NEVER USE AN ULTRASONIC CLEANER ON DX SERIES HEADS. The weld line on the piezo elements is very close to the jetting plate. Ultrasonic energy will destroy the welds almost instantly. If you ran these thru an ultrasonic you've likely killed them. I did that with my first used Roland...

Go all in.. make one of these and then fab that baby in house. Homemade Metal Bender its only a freaking sign!

Maxamy.. I googled "free fonts musical notes".. 33 Free music, notes fonts - FontSpace the site is reputable so I think your safe to download from them. Some free fonts are virus laden so always use anti virus software.. install the font to your computer, restart the vinyl design app (what...
