Why use color the color bars on a full color print? I only ever turn that on when I'm doing something with like 80% white space and few colors. Also it looks to me like you tiled the print before sending to the RIP, and possibly have something set that cut off those inside edges. Just send the...

We have had this problem A LOT lately. We've picked up some new customers (new to us anyway, we absorbed a customer base from another shop we purchased) and many of these jobs the customer has returned with the signs and bitched that the colors are off. We match them up with the PMS chart to the...

ALWAYS Color Correction ON. Otherwise it isn't using the profile. If colors are off when you have it on, that is a profile problem. Now if you run a job with it off and you're happy with it, make sure you note that somewhere in your file or production notes so you remember for repeat orders...

Lord Adhesive Signlok 810 is what we use. You get about 5 minutes before it starts to dry. No tape needed.

Just use any cheap printable vinyl. Your Oracal 631 isn't gonna know what brand it is.

In all actuality, for the area this is in, it should be in Hindi or Bengali.

What kind of stupid question is that?

Yeah I hate that one, but its the last standing DIY wash around. I generally just go to AutoSplash.

So do I.... right off Hillcrest/Rolater.

Hey you weren't far from where I live! I know what company did those signs....not gonna mention their name. Pretty bad though yes.

Yes, I'm using 8519 for ALL vehicle graphics, and most outdoor stuff that needs laminate.

Absolutely you can print on it. Trying to remember if we installed from online server or if it was a default profile in our RIP. What are you using, Flexi? Onyx? EDIT: Come to think of it, I believe I had to create that profile by cloning something else and running the full calibration bit...

I order my banner from GSG...they have their line Starprint, and it comes in 39"! It is perfect for 36" banners with 1" hems.

LOL..someone disagreed with this. Uh, ok. I mean, I get it if buying a whole new machine just isn't in the budget for you, but nothing I said is untrue.

I have this problem as well on our 560. I think a hardware update is needed, as I don't think I had this happen until the latest one. It's a pain, especially when I'm in a hurry, cancel a job for whatever reason, restart and then wonder why nothing is printing 15 minutes later.

There IS a right answer....if this is a common problem (meaning you are printing lots of vehicle wraps/full rolls), then it may be wise to invest in a Latex printer. Nice and dry, ready for laminate right off the printer.

Avery 3303 is a promotional grade cheap cal vinyl. You say you want strong adhesive? That has normal adhesive. If you want really high tack, then you want Arlon DFP 8000 or even GF 201 HTAP. If you just need a regular permanent adhesive on an air-egress vinyl, I recommend Avery 2903, which I...

Yes and it depends on which hemisphere you live in.... LOL. Never have I heard a reasoning for weed direction being based on the blade angle. What happens to vinyl cut with a 35 blade?

Those prices need to be a scaled price....meaning smaller jobs are higher per s/f than a larger job. For example, a 2x6 banner might be at $8 s/f, whereas a 5' x 10' banner might be at $6.50 a s/f (not saying that's our pricing...but not far off).

We have updated a couple of Designer only subscriptions to 19. So far haven't seen any more problems than we usually have with Flexi. Have not updated our FlexiSign & Print yet; still on 12, and it's not subscription so not shelling out the money yet. Seeing the issues others are having with...
