  1. Transparent silver metallic vinyl?

    So they are wanting the graphics to be lighter than the color of the car? I would think it would look better with the graphics slightly darker. Then you could use a slightly darker metallic vinyl than the paint color.
  2. Question Correct glyphs for ADA signage?

    There are only a few pictograms specified in the law (section 703.6), and they are the International Signs of Accessibility. The staircase is not one of them. So there is some freedom in drawing that pictogram, within the general confines of the law regarding pictograms.
  3. Discussion Do you advertise your capabilities in your shop/offices?

    We keep it simple. There is a small monitor on the front office counter facing the customer that plays a constant slideshow of finished jobs. We have a couple of shelves of promotional products we've done, along with notebooks and displays of business cards, postcards, and flyers we've done...
  4. Need help Contour Cutting with Mimaki CG130FX

    We use Onyx. There are no layers. The RIP creates the registration marks itself. The only thing the file has to have is the CutContour spot color lines for cutting. When the Mimaki reads the registration marks using the procedure I outlined above, that is all the reading of marks there is. Once...
  5. s80600 service manual

    About the only user-replaceable parts are the fans. And you don't need a manual for those.
  6. Need help Contour Cutting with Mimaki CG130FX

    Unlike other plotters, on the Mimaki all the mark reading is done from the plotter's console, not from your cutting software. You also need to make sure the plotter is set up to do mark reading or it won't even turn the laser on at all. Here is the process: Load vinyl, making sure the pich...
  7. s80600 service manual

    There is a service mode, but they don't want you messing around with it. Service has to be done by techs from DecisionOne, dispatched by Epson Support.
  8. s80600 service manual

    Service is not something you get to do on Epsons.

    No.
  10. Suggestions Graphtec FC 8000 64"

    We print from Corel Draw, so we do have a custom palette with the color CutContour in it (you can make it any color but we use C0M1Y0K0). You use that color as the pen line (using the outline pen) for any shapes you want the plotter to cut. In the Quick Set you check the box "Use Cutter Path...
  11. Suggestions Graphtec FC 8000 64"

    It's really simple. We have two different plotters, an old Mimaki and the Graphtec. When printing the job you select the cutter in Onyx while you're preflighting it (we have a Quick Set that makes it go to the one you want). It prints the registration marks itself; I don't have to do anything...
  12. Where to find plastic office id signs for schools

    The school may be telling you they don't have to have the braille and raised letters, but by law, they do. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) makes that quite clear. And though the handicap Nazis that used to go around seeking out public spaces to sue for having non-compliant signage seem...
  13. Suggestions Graphtec FC 8000 64"

    Odd. I've been using an FC8000 for a long time with Onyx, and never had any trouble cutting from Onyx with it.
  14. Need Help Need Font help...

    Looks like Bodoni Bold Italic, the Sign Wizard version. On regular fonts, Bodoni Black Italic is the same weight but the serifs on the m and r are a little different.
  15. cannot get corel 2017 and roland gx-24 to work together

    Everything I've seen on Roland and other support forums says that you cannot cut directly from Corel Draw X7 using the print driver, even though you could in previous versions. It apparently has something with Corel not using VBS since X7 on. You have to get the Cutstudio Corel X7 plugin...
  16. SHELBY font

    If you have Adobe Creative Cloud, it's available with your subscription. The free Shelby font is not the same as the one that is for sale. It's only $35 if you really need it. Charge your customer for it.
  17. cannot get corel 2017 and roland gx-24 to work together

    The GX-24 is a cutter, not a printer. You cannot print to it. You need cutting software. Corel Draw is not cutting software.
  18. Photo Booth Wrap

    The template shows they are just rectangular pieces (2) and one round pieces, so calendared vinyl is fine. My guess is it would take us about 15 minutes of actual time spent cleaning the surface and sticking the vinyl on. It won't really be wrapping; just sticking a piece of vinyl on a flat...
  19. Photo Booth Wrap

    I have no idea what the item looks like based on the template. You likely don't either. A photo of the assembled booth would make a lot more sense. Every photo booth I've ever seen was a box-like structure with a curtain and a bench inside. But in doing an internet search, apparently now an ipad...
