  1. Reflective vinyl printing questions

    There are many companies who screen print onto vinyl. As far as rotary screen printing, basically a printing press that can output massive sq. feet per hour on many different materials, often things like wallpaper and fabric. As for the white backed reflective, I believe I have seen some...
  2. overlap on the cutting on the Graphtec

    Look for an 'Overcut' setting...and reduce it.
  3. convert jpeg to eps

    In flexi try using the Bezier command under the Bitmap menu,then Vectorize then Bezier....this is assuming your version of flexi has this feature. Good Luck.
  4. Font Help Please

    Trajan Pro Bold maybe.
  5. Best deal on IJ180c -10 & 8519 lam?

    You must be wrapping every darn bus on the island Wayne.
  6. Clean latex ink smudges on vinyl?

    Try Isopropyl Alcohol.
  7. Curling bumper stickers

    Orajet 3641 and Oraguard 200 or 210 for better UV protection.
  8. Black flowing into red on detailed prints

    In Flexi make sure the color for your black when you select it is 'black' and not 'all', meaning full ink from all channels. Have seen this on several occasions over the last decade. Edit: after re-reading the last sentence of the first part I realized this is not the case...sorry.
  9. is there a way to match a print to a vinyl?

    Are you using a Nix sensor? Just wondering how accurate they are, they seem awesome for the price.
  10. Question on laminate for decals help me figure out what this stuff is!

    It looks like an 8 to 10 mil polycarbonate film to me, I can tell you it is a major league PITA to plot anything other than squares or rectangles on.
  11. Internet Upload Speeds

    Fred that is a speed test, the numbers you are seeing are the stats for your AT&T connection. I'm fairly sure you would see massively faster speeds with Charter or Comcast if either are available to you. I have the least expensive package, the business plans offer faster upload speeds.
  12. Internet Upload Speeds

    According to the Google you should be able to get Comcast Xfinity cable service. Should be massively faster up/download speeds than AT&T can offer. Hell, up here we have small towns 20 miles from nowhere that can get kick *** internet speeds via Charter.
  13. Newbie Windows question, my font preferences keep changing...

    This post sounds similar to your issue: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/509809/lots-of-fonts-suddenly-changed-across-various-browers/ Ended up being corrupted fonts in his case.
  14. FC7000 cutting issue

    What is your blade offset angle set to?
  15. Oracal 751 on PVC sign post

    You should be fine using 751 for about anything. How does that 5300 weed? I need to get a sample.
  16. Graphtec varying results

    How much of your blade is sticking out of the bottom of your blade holder? You should see just a tiny little sliver of the tip sticking out. Assuming the force ratio is the same as my Graphtecs, you should be on a FORCE setting of 9-12 with a new blade up to 15 to 17 with a heavily used blade...
  17. Graphtec varying results

    Is your cutter protection strip in good shape?
  18. DRY APPLY ONLY WITH REFLECTIVE Anyone know why?

    That slippery film is likely citrus oil, much like the type used in many glue removers. http://www.whatsinsidescjohnson.com/us/en/brands/windex/windex-original-glass-cleaner
  19. 15k to start, what to buy? (printer, cutter + maybe laminator)

    Not true, drags are just as accurate as tangential....if you are doing tiny intricate 1/4" designs then yes I would consider a tangential as that is where they outperform a drag. For what you are trying to do you might want to look into a high quality desktop printer, something like an Epson...
  20. Useless Graphtec FC8600 won't find registration marks

    Sounds like your RMS sensor is fried, and yes it can fail from one job to the next...happened to me. I cant remember exactly what we paid to have our sensor replaced, but seems like it was only a couple hundred bucks. If your off warranty I would recommend Advantage Sign Supply to service it...
