I had the problem of buying pirated software with Corel 12. It was a perfect copy right down to the silk screened disc. Corel said it was no good so I bought this copy of X4 from Corel... not a reseller. My current software is fine despite them warning that it has been disabled. I spoke with...
I opened my copy of CorelDraw X4 this morning and got a pop up message that saving etc. has been disabled by Corel because it is a pirated copy. Anyone else get one?

Great. I tried the Arlon lam to replace General Formulation lam. It buckles like crazy. Now I find out Arlon has an uncoated liner too. At least I have a reason now for the print media not buckling. Maybe I should stick to plastic liner.

The entire sheet buckles when I roll a piece of lam out. It appears the cure is to run the dehumidifier. I could also turn up the heat as warmer air holds more moisture and lowers the effective humidity.

Chinese cold roll laminator. I cut a sheet of laminate the size of the graphic and then laminate the 2 using the power feed. I don't have anywhere to put the roll on the machine... or else I don't understand the procedure. I'll look for a picture of my machine.

The laminate was getting all wavy and when I tried to apply it to print the waves would fold and wrinkle making a mess of the print. The laminate was going into a compound curve so the middle was bigger than the edges. This is Arlon 2mil laminating film, not 5mm polycarbonite countertop...
It goes wavy. I just went out to the shop to take a picture and the darned stuff is laying flat as a pancake. The dehumidifier has dropped the humidity down to 32% and all is well. I found a picture of something wavy online. It gets worse than this. Problem solved I guess.
I still don't get...
Gino! How are ya buddy!? I am using a cheap Chinese laminator. Cold. It's just 2 big rubber rollers and a motor. The laminate doesn't need to be near it for the buckling problem I'm describing. The laminate gets wavy as soon as I unroll it.

I'm having problems with laminates buckling. I'm pretty sure it's caused by humidity. As soon as I roll out the laminate to cut it to size it begins to buckle. Then it becomes impossible to apply it to the non buckled print.
I'm posting to make sure there is nothing I am missing here. Is my...
Sounds awesome... but I have a question. Can I use it up here in Canada? The frost pulls signs out of the ground if we don't use concrete tubes. (the tubes make the concrete smooth so the ground can't grab hold of it and pull the sign up as the ground expands from freezing)

I haven't been here for at least 2 years... maybe 3... and I come back and it's the same old crew spouting "wa, wa, wa... the newbies make me sad..."
Be helpful if you want and if they don't appreciate... don't help them anymore. This is a forum. If no one "forums" there isn't much point to...
Printer = Roland SP540V.(see title)
Thanks for the tips guys. I found no clogs and replaced the O rings etc.
I've ordered a head. I suspect physical damage as I had a devil of a time getting the new cap to seal. I tried 2 different ones and it seems to still be leaking a tiny bit. I'll have...
I've been having an issue with my printer since it malfunctioned and parked with it's heads uncapped last week. I have missing sections of my magenta head.
I have been unable to clear the gaps in the magenta head. I've soaked, dabbed, powerful cleaned and sucked it for several days now.
Now I...
What I found amazing was they said they would install the printhead for $25 if I brought the printer to them.(?) $25 an hour for labor and $125 and hour to drive a car. Makes no sense to me. Maybe it was joke.
