When you say the gravoply material has a thicker top coat, are you sure your supplier has sent you the correct material? I've never seen a laser able material with a top coat thick enough to see from the side profile, it may be rotary engrave plastic. I've also never needed 2 passes to get...

We get it from All Graphic Supplies, they are a distributor in Canada, not sure if you can get this in the states or not http://www.rite-media.com/Downloads/SpecSheets/en/Rite_inkjet_gloss_paper_en.pdf

I've had nothing but problems with postermax, both with the sticking issue you described and with the ink not drying on the paper causing it to come off on the back on th take up roller. one of our suppliers has a nice thick paper as their house brand that prints beautifully, so we switched to...

You just described my worst nightmare! Add some race car drivers and you have a recipe for a cheapskate cocktail.

Live never heard anyone on here bash hand painted signs, not sure where you got that from. Lets face it, 30 years ago there were just as many hacks with a paintbrush as there are today with vinyl plotters & printers. Issues like this are not a vinyl vs paint issue, it's a terrible install issue.

lol!

According to my pantone colour bridge the conversion is C 74 M 0 Y 85 K 0 but it looks like it's one of those colours that cant match well in CMYK, the 2 swatches in the bridge are very different!

what?!?!?!

when/why did you come back?

Looks to be affecting BlueHost customers as well, our email has been down most of the day today as well.

Mactac sent me a 5 yard roll for no charge as a sample, if you really need some I have a 48" roll here I could sell you some of that

I would think so, you can print the same file on 2 identical rolands and there is no guarantee the colours will be the same!

Also, Arlon makes a frosted film with air release that is quite thick and easy to put on dry, it might be an option.

yeah, i've been using 16x24 as standard for years. 18x24 is standard only because it is a 1.5:2 ratio

Lol, you stole the first copy of the software. Corel isn't a very expensive product, either pony up the $400 and buy it, or deal with x6. most people on this forum don't take software piracy lightly

General formulations make their own version of convex called motomark, I've never used it but call TCT they should be able to get you a sample roll

drilling them out doesn't work, tried it before, the little buggers got so hot they melted the banner and ruined it.

thanks Fred, are you talking about the piece that must be unclipped and swung up to load the vinyl in, a kind of arm? Also the plot thickens, The original tearing ussue happened when printing Gerber ruby red foil onto standard 3 mil vinyl, happened 3-4 times in a row, switched to a duracoat...

Hopefully someone can help me as this is making me tear my hair out! we have an intermittent problem with our edge 2, every once and a while we are printing and get a "check foil" error message, when I open the edge, the foil is fine, but the vinyl is bunched up inside the printer, turns out...
