  1. Hi from the Philippines!

  2. Need an opinions on this printer

    Not to single you out but why hasn't anyone else mentioned the cumbersome loading/unloading procedure I mentioned earlier. Have you no experience with other brands. The older HP models a real pia to switch media. This alone would have been a deal breaker had I had a say in the purchase...
  3. Discussion Why is this so common in most threads concerning costs........................??

    Just as I was about to add my 2 cents I decided it'd be cheaper to not comment.
  4. Need an opinions on this printer

    If it's anything like the 360 as far as loading unloading media, I hate it. pia imo. At least compared to Mimaki. As demonstrated here p.s HP has since adopted a different approach that looks promising.
  5. Question What's the point of translucent black?

    Whole window. We've also done the same double-strike print on clear that's full color for existing backlit white acrylic sign faces. One strike print will be too light when backlit. Haven't had the need for any seems just yet. All one piece.
  6. Need Help Ai scaling help

    Ditch ai and use coreldraw. No scaling necessary. No need for an artboard and either.
  7. Question What's the point of translucent black?

    Not sure if it's relevant but we've printed black to clear/translucent to make a tint for windows. If the black comes out too light we'll do a "double strike" print for a deeper tint.
  8. Roland vs Mimaki

    Speed of printing is irrelevant imo. We use two seperate units. The print technician can gang print many different jobs on one media then turn it over to somebody else to plot or hand cut meanwhile he/she can change out the media and continue printing other jobs. Much better workflow. If you're...

  10. I need a designer who can also do production

    Hmmm hire a pilot with lot's of actual flying time or someone who took a written course and flew airplanes on playstation/XBox p.s.

  13. Need Help Mimaki cjv150-160 half cut

    As suggested above, on short runs of decals that won't require any pre-mask we make two cuts. Do the die cut first then cut an outer 1/8" or so "Punch Cut/ Half Cut". Then just weed out that 1/8". Decals come out much cleaner i.e. no torn corners and such. MAkes for an easy peel and stick for...
  14. Hp latex 315 or Mimaki cjv150

    Have you any experience with other printers? Mimaki was the easiest I've ever seen. I'll give it to HP though for finally listening to their customers. The newer models are a lot easier to load. Changing media/substrate on the HP360 in a nutshell 1. Release pinch rollers (lever) 2. Roll...
