  4. How well does your roland cut after laminated?

    Ours works perfectly as expected. You have to realize that there are some limitations (you're not going to cut ten 20' long stripes and be spot on), but that if you ask the machine to do a reasonable task, it does it well. 185 is very high. I'd suggest installing a new blade and adjusting...
  5. drop out when test printing

    First off, if you're not printing much, get rid of the bulk system. Bulk systems are meant for people who do volume. If you're running a bulk system on low volume, you're asking for problems. How old are you cap tops? Wipers? Dampers? Are you running OEM wipers? How often are you...

    Overlap with a wallpaper cut, then heat lightly and press both sides down. Piece of cake.

  8. wrapping over a wrap... any specific concerns I should be aware of?

    Doug, Why can't you charge for it? We've wrapped over existing vinyl before, but with the understanding (and written waiver) that there is NO warranty at all. In fact, discuss with them that you may not even be able to install. If you start installing and as you need to pop the vinyl...
  9. My new baby.

    My biggest problem with getting a new computer is Windows 7... We've got it on a couple of our systems, and I can't seem to get used to it. No matter how fast the computer is, I'm slower on it. :/

  11. Getting into screen printing coro signs

    Did you happen to notice the UV dryer in the background that the lady in the video is feeding the coros into? Without a dryer, you're going to be using solvent ink, getting cancer, spending more money on ventilation, and needing a LARGE area for drying. On second look, it looks like they are...

    Head for zee hills. Not that it'll help.
  14. VP-540 prints slow when playing videos.

    High Octane, You can also try zooming in and out again. Usually fixes the "ghosting". Mainframe, I've seen this happen when the network is getting hit really hard. I have also seen it happen when the processor gets slammed, but it's usually the network. I'd venture to say you have a...
  15. A lesson in sales / service

    Well said Craig. There's plenty of work out there. We do work for a couple of companies that do a ton of business. So much so that a couple of sign companies work together to take care of their needs. Plenty of work to go around.

    The red VHB is much stronger than the normal 3M foam with the green liner.

    We've used it without fail, but it is not he same as normal VHB tape.
  19. VP-540 prints slow when playing videos.

    yep.. network bandwidth is choking thr printer.
  20. Arlon DPF600X

    I prefer not to use Arlon, but we do install quite a bit of it lately (read install, not print). It is a very soft, workable film, but I've had issues in the past.
