What version of Wasatch are you running?

Looks like the Signjet JX-2000 is supported, not sure if that will work for the Pro2. http://www.wasatch.com/cutterlist.html Does the Pro2 have an optical eye/reader? If not, it probably won't work. *Setting up automatic contour cutting or importing a cut path is a breeze in Wasatch...

Lol, no problem - and no insult intended. You would be surprised (or maybe not) how many new folks introduce themselves and admit they are selling that stuff. Sounds like you're heading in the right direction. :thumb:

By chance, you're not making and selling decals/stickers and signs with logos on them like...oh I don't know, Harley Davidson, Chevy, Ford...or other stuff like that are you?

That's a pretty vague question since you don't state what type of job you're quoting. You need to start by figuring out your hourly rate. Which is what it costs you per hour to keep your doors open. $50?...$65....$80...? Only you can figure that out. Search around the forum, there has been...

Don't have an answer for you other than suggesting you contact Dave at Solvent Printer Conversions. He's very good with the older Roland units. http://www.solventprinterconversion.com/

SOLD!! To houseofgrafix - payment pending.

Hard to beat Clean Cut blades - best I've found. Sold my Roland so no longer need these if anyone is interested. http://www.signs101.com/pp-classifieds/for-sale/p219-3-new-clean-cut-bladesroland-camm-1-or-print-and-cut.html Thanks!

Yup, just had a similar scenario happen here. Now they're selling yard signs to ANYONE for the same or less than what they were charging wholesale last year. Not going to quote pricing but I could barely buy the coro and stakes for what they're charging to print them. *I understand times are...

I don't know of any print-only solvent or eco-solvent machines that small. Closest thing I can think of would be be the print & cut 30" machines from either Roland or Mimaki. With that said, those machines sell for well over $10-12,000 new. You might find used ones in the $6-$7k range that...

Congratulations on getting him back safe and sound and with a new outlook on life. Please give him my heartfelt thanks for serving our country.

You can download a free trial for SignCut X2; http://www.signcut.net/ and/or their new product SignCut Pro; http://www.signcutpro.com/ I've been using SignCut X2 for over 2 years. Been a very reliable program with several nice features. You can either do a subscription based purchase or...

As others have said it depends on the circumstances. I typically don't like to install off-site for vehicles, but sometimes it is necessary. *Last year I did 3 vans for a plumber in one day at his shop, simply because the logistics of them bringing all 3 vans to me, plus arranging...

Ah, you're talking about flexo printing - which yes printed labels could be done very easily on a flexo press. However, the first, err second video in this thread shows a press cutting vinyl decals - not printing. *FWIW - we have a label shop about 20 miles from us that runs several large...

I don't have much background in flexography, but I don't think a flexo press would be used to die cut vinyl decals. A flexo press uses a flexible polymer plate that lends itself to printing on irregular surfaces like cardboard boxes, foil and plastic food wrappers, etc. Besides, most flexo...

Scar, most are using the 180 because it is a cast material primarily used for wrapping. The 3651 is a calendared material that is used for flat surfaces or very minor curves. Two completely different animals.

Ah, a topic near and dear to my heart... The machine he is using is a Heidelberg windmill press. Originally a platen printing press that used the old system of a chase and movable type, most were replaced by offset presses back in the 70's. Some are still in use today doing specialized...

I agree, both Parallels and Fusion are very good emulation programs. In fact, I've heard nothing but praise from even my die-hard PC friends who tried it. I can't say I've ever tried to run Versaworks, but I can't imagine why it wouldn't work as long as you can hook up the printer with a USB...

Man, that really sucks Eric. I've been fortunate to not have any bad experiences - yet. *Knocks on wood, throws salt over shoulder, does lucky dance...

After 14 years in the offset printing field as a prepress tech I've pretty much seen and heard it all. -IF- the client is supplying a "print-ready" file then it should indeed "print-ready". To me, print ready means it has been proofed, edited, and completely gone through to the point that it...
