  1. Ink Warning changed?

    the printer will still stop when the cart actually runs out. We've had the message about our yellow cart for 2 weeks now, I just printed about 60ft of full coverage graphics and am still on the same carts, so the pop-up warning is VERY premature. you can turn it off in the versaworks settings...

  6. film options other than Avery!?

    Basically, there are 3 major players in wrap vinyl, there are more out there, but I would stick with the major players 3M 180cv3 - the most expensive of the lot, but most people swear by it. Here in Canada it's expensive because ND Graphics is the only dealer in the country Avery 1005 ezrs -...
  7. Floor digital vinyl no lamination

    the laminate will help with removal as well, I can imagine an unlaminated vinyl on the floor would come up in tiny pieces when it's removed. floor laminate is fairly inexpensive.
  8. Anyone know where to find this Fleurs-De-Lis symbol?

    fleur de lis it's on the flag of Quebec, so if you can find a vector version of the flag you can get it from there.
  9. Which Table Saw for PVC, Aluminum, Dibon

    We used to use a table saw for cutting down substrates, it worked out well, but even with a large saw it was a 2 person job to cut a full 4x8 sheet. We bought a Fletcher Keen-Cut Steeltrak, it does a great job on PVC, Acrylic, Dibond, Coro and foamcore, plus cutting is now a one person...
  10. Airport sign falls down-kills boy

    You're an a***ole, show some respect, a 10 year old has died and this is what you have to say! Not everything is a opportunity to forward your political beliefs! What a horrible thing to happen, my thoughts are with the family. This is an installers worst nightmare.

    why not use a material suited for outdoor use? pretty much every vinyl manufacturer makes one.

    Oracal.
  19. 3m IJ35-C with 8707

    wow that's pretty bad, how long have they been installed? I would also advise not to apply the vinyl right up to the seals, we always cut it back by about 1/8" or so. either way it shouldn't do that, but good luck getting ANY vinyl manufacturer admit when they are wrong, ask me how I...
