I've been using straight butyl carb to swab around heads, captops, etc...

Hi Jester, What Nick and I ran into was completely different than Rain-X or pre-wash. Absolutely nothing would clean the glass. Urethane reducer, enamel solvents, lacquer thinner, acetone and even aircraft stripper. Cleaned with Bar Keeper's friend too. We tried it all and the graphics...

In rare cases you will get a window or a piece of glass where nothing will stick. I had this happen on a van. it's because of the way it was made. Too much silicone and other chemicals used when making the glass itself. Absolutely no way to get rid of it. Learned this from my window tinting...

Probably copyrighted. Just sayin'...

Make a 100% yellow square in Illustrator. Save as press quality PDF. In output make sure it says No Conversion and Don't Include Profiles. Print and see what you get.

Before you get too crazy switching inks. profiling etc... do a fill test. That will blast long strips of pure color across the width of the media. In your case one each of CMYK. Fill test is not influenced by the RIP. It is in the service menu driven by the machines firmware. That will...

Only contributing to her own "cause".;)

I think you're stuck making your own templates. I work with another shop and that's how they supplied the dims.

Saam you forgot to add None to your poll. Been there done that with a SP540V. Bought a Summa before I went broke trying to get usable contour cuts from the Roland. Only exception would be if you're only doing sheets at 4' or less.

Stellar work.

You might have a bad roll of laminate. If laminate is okay slow down. I laminate as slow as possible. Gives adhesive a chance to wet out.

try steam

Check with Phil at Airmark. My Summa was a trade show demo. Got a great deal on it. I should have gotten mine years ago. All the time wasted making manageable pieces for the Roland and it still "eats" the job. Printing jobs two, three or more times just to get enough usable product for a...

I'd check here: https://bensonwood.com/timberframe/ Maybe have them build a kit? Lot's of stress points etc...not something I'd be messing with. Once you pull the permit you "own" the sign.

To the OP. I have the exact same printer and tried everything to make it cut better. New pinch rollers, pulling the machine apart and setting pinch roller tension, new parts etc... Truth is it won't cut better. Take a close look at the specs. You'll be shocked. No more babying the Roland by...

I use a simple Wacom Bamboo for photo work and working with colors using the airbrush tools. In Illustrator I use it with the brush tools.

Local sign shop had a meeting with H-D execs regarding a big project that was underway. Shop owners thought it would be a nice touch to have easel signs with the HD logo at the entrance to the meeting room, and table toppers too. As soon as the HD folks filed in all hell broke loose and went...

Shop rate until finished. Just like Forrest's box of chocolates ya never know what yer gonna get.
