  3. Rotate in Cutmaster 5

    Right, I use Adobe illustrator and Cutmaster 5 but not having the ability to rotate is bad :( 6 feet of vinyl and laminate down the drain. I will now print in 180 so I get the bottom printing first. Since Cutmaster cuts from bottom to top.
  4. Rotate in Cutmaster 5

    I’ll try that, I was going to use Onyx to cut but a few things with onyx. 1. It doesn’t let me manipulate the margins smaller that 1.5” which is odd. 2. Onyx doesn’t have a passings settings. Since we kiss cut and die cut thick 20mil material it’s safer to have 2 passes so if the first pass...
  5. Rotate in Cutmaster 5

    It’s Adobe illustrator and I’m using segmented crop marks. If I rotate in illustrator it will still try to read the crop marks with the same spacing and the last one is closer than the first.
  6. Rotate in Cutmaster 5

  9. 700w alternatives ?

    That machine has been down all week and HP isn’t being very easy about replacing it. They admitted that the machine has giving me so many problems that it’s best to be replaced. Imagine all week with out being able to print on it. I’m losing money :( My only concern with the UCJV-300 is odor...
  10. 700w alternatives ?

    I’m having a lot of problems with my 700w that is about 5 weeks old. It’s been down all week and I been struggling getting an HP tech here and quite frankly I want the machine replaced. Is there an alternative that does white ink? I really need the white ink as we use it a lot on clear...

  14. HP latex 700w head travel on small width vinyl

    Question I saw a video and you where mentioned as the person that wrote a manual process for double sided printing. Do you have the link for that? My apologies if it wasn’t you.
  15. HP latex 700w head travel on small width vinyl

    Hello, Is there a way to set the head travel width for smaller vinyl? I’m printing on 24” vinyl but the head still travels the length of the printer. I could have sworn my older 335 only traveled 24” and came back and wouldn’t go all the way across. Maybe it’s a setting in Onyx or Flexi?

    I’m about 25 miles from the beaches so it’s not horrible but the warehouse gets nasty lol Not like Dallas use to though. I did live in South Dallas for 3 years

    Hey ladies and gents! Any tips on how you keep your warehouse cool during the summer? We are part office, part warehouse for our design and print shop and I want to be better prepared for the summer this year. Thanks!
  19. Mimaki UV vs HP Latex

    I finally got my 700w printer installed and the print quality with 100 underfloor white is awesome! The print speeds are slow though but I’m comparing them to my Gerber Edge FX. which is a pain in its own right since you need a manual operator to change colors out. May be faster but I don’t want...
