  1. problem with mutoh 1618

    I had something similair on my VJ 1604. What I did is take the back panel of and you can see the valves. I unscrewed the nut and pulled it out then syringed it back through. Then do a subtank fill (as it was empty) The valve must have got blocked/stuck. This has happened once more but I just...
  2. Helicopter Wrap

    Instead of removing the old, leave it on and wrap over them. The guy wants it back to how it was before so when you remove the wrap of it's still there. SC
  3. HP Designjet 3500CP, a list of questions......

    I had a graphtec JX2100 which has this as the printer part. To be quiet honest I would sort yourself a better machine even if it was free. This machine uses a printhead with every ink tank!! You buy four cartridges, printheads and a cleaning assemblies with every refill. We had big problems with...
  4. I need to turn my "business" around

    We had a very bad year last year and had a number of problems and what with a recession going on. But last week our accountant came in told us our profits were down from previous years but only by about 3%. He reckoned if you went through all his clients the average for last year was 30% down...
  5. New Client Nightmare Job

    Sorry Gary I thought I made this one clear as I had designed it already black red and silver/grey. The size didn't matter but the shape did. I thought everyone knew what CND meant but it means Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament. It was a new idea as my guick doodle is what I made out of the...
  6. Vendor Agreement

    That seems rather harsh. I have never heard or seen this carried out in the sign community. This would have to be one helluva lot of work even to be half considering this sort of thing. Is this a multinational business? I would give the agreement to a lawyer to read through Isign and Fred have...

    Jill You may have nailed it. That should do I've enough layouts to show her so i'll see what happens Monday. Thank You so much everyone. SC
  8. Looking for help on Printers and getting into the wrap business

    I will tell you what is wrong with wrapping vehicles, etc. in the UK. No one here realises the potential and are happy to waste huge amount of advertising capital on newspaper adverts and radio/TV that are either in the bin or forgotten tomorrow. Mind you I have seen some bad wraps that were so...
  9. New Client Nightmare Job

    All I have is a very crude sketch on what I based my rough idea on, it's a clothes shop and the shape of the sign. I have used what the client has supplied. This isn't the direction I would have taken, seems a bit strange with hearts, bows and CND symbols but that's what they said. As a...
  10. New Client Nightmare Job

    Hi Gypsy I have been commisioned to make a sign fit a space! Yes I know I hate working into a set dimension but this is a real old building and the sign is not adjustable in size or shape due to it being in a conservation area! This is the complete advertising space of the shop. As far as I know...
  11. New Client Nightmare Job

    Jill That looks real good. I'm gonna talk her out of the CND logos as it would look stupid. I had this and about 3 others that I had already started to finish this weekend. Just went blank. Thank You soooo much SC
  12. You want me to teach you what!!!

    Hee Hee Hee Most vinyl monkees who buy a plotter haven't a clue on layout or typefaces. Brush Script rules and squash them layouts so everything just looks like a barcode. SC
  13. Looking for help on Printers and getting into the wrap business

    Hell I've been in this business 27 years and I have all the equipment, training and space to do Wraps but have a huge problem.... No one round here is either willing or able financially to pay for a wrap. Many customers want a full or partial wrap but when they find out the costs they shy away...

    If anyone could help me on this one as I am back staring blankley at a computer screen!!!! I need something by 10am Monday!!! I hate been given a deadline by customers as it doesn't help my designing juices!!! Thanks SC
  15. New Client Nightmare Job

    Yes, yes and yes everything is wrong about this job. The colours are silver,red and black. i have sat in front of a computer for over 2 hours crying at this. The client gave me a sketch of what she wanted but it looks like a collection of about 6 typefaces! What I have made is something based...
  16. New Client Nightmare Job

    Well here we go New Year New Businesses. This one came in and I have designed it as they specified. Colours, Hearts, CND logos and Bow. But I hate it and have drawn a blank with the limited space and design. Can anyone help or even inspire me a little. Don't laugh at the name!!! Thanks SC
  17. New Shop Truck Layout

    Toooooo much stuff on that one. I thought my work vehicle was busy but that has just beat it by miles. SC
  18. how to expand my eps file for cutting?

    As jfiscus said "something this simple" should be easy. If you can't do something this easy you are in the wrong job. Maybe DrJ2Vinyl was trying to create this using his Cricut onto a 10'x5' and couldn't find the correct button to press!!! .....LOL SC
