  1. Restaurant Table Top Prints

    Sounds like an upsell opportunity. Explain that you can offer a temporary solution as mentioned above, but recommend changing every few months. Talk them into showcasing a new product every few months and maybe you can generate ongoing business from them.
  2. Corel or Adobe?

    Not really sure what you're talking about with Win 10...are you referring to a subscription model for the office products? If that is the case, I'm with you. People send me excel files from time to time. Takes a few seconds, but I bring it over to google sheets, then I can see what I need to...
  3. Corel or Adobe?

    I have both. I own Corel outright. Adobe I must continue to pay until I die.
  4. What kind of work vehicle do you use?

    Maybe look at only renting the lift when you need it? Build the rental cost into the estimate, then you never have the maintenance costs. I know an excavator that does this. That's right, an excavator with little to no excavator equipment.

  11. Question Do you use dedicated rip computer?

    We have a dedicated imac for the RIP. I like the idea of different computers for design, RIP, machine control, and certainly the books. For the USB stick guys, I used to do that alot, but being a CNC guy we have so many computer controlled machines that a network is the way to go. I'm the...

  13. employee freelancing...........

    Two thoughts: 1.) How hard is it to get a good worker? Labor pool is terrible right now. 2.) Don't say one word to her until you are completely cool and calm. If you go in there accusing, it will be a bad scene. Take time to think through all the ramifications. Process it all. Go in...

    There is one controller board directly about the C and M heads, one above the Y and K heads, and one above the White head. So two heads plug into one board. So I turned the machine off, swapped the Y and K plugin locations, turned back on, did a test print. As expected,the Y and K heads were...
  18. What is this about?

    Yes, the big black bar. It's like the black stays on the whole length of travel, at least in one direction anyway. This is a bidirectional test print on a flatbed printer. I'll get to the nozzles later but this black strip is killing me. Printed yesterday no problem. Today, this.
  19. What is this about?

    Ok, this is a Stratojet FB1212 UV printer, I have an email out to their support but thought I'd throw this up here to see if any of you have any insight.
