    Well Tony, they've slipped a bit as they were acquired in 2011 for only $283 million. Back in the days when I was marketing my Scrappy™ Friction Feed Adapter, I looked up their public statements. In 1990, GSP sold $160 million dollars in vinyl alone ... not counting equipment to the sign...

  3. Gerber Edge Noisy

    Are you sure it's coming from the belt. My Edge, depending on the setup and materials being used, sometimes makes a noise like that which is the foil snapping away from the vinyl when it reaches a gap in the printing.
  4. Gerber Edge Print Problem

    What model Edge? What software and version #? What cable setup from computer to Edge? Does this happen with one particular job or multiple jobs?
  5. Best Way to get new customers?

    Create a nice mailing piece and send it to new business licensees in your area. These are usually available from your county government either online or in person and are public information. Screen out locations or business types you may not want. Check for new building permits and drive by to...

  7. Creating Bleed in Supplied Illustrator Files for Decals

    I agree with what has been posted. A decent solution is provided to those who have that ability to print spot white on clear. Use the welded outline of the vectors to fill with white as a base coat on clear and the original image exactly on top and outline the same vector a couple hundredths of...
  8. Appears to be very large Nur Tempo press S/N 20175 with misc. parts

    There are a number of results on Google, many of which include used models for sale as well as original prices when new. If you are looking for a buyer here at Signs 101, then the appropriate procedure would be to place a classified ad. https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=nur+tempo
  9. PDF File with OMEGA

    Pretty sure it won't do it because it lacks the page to page navigation tools built into Adobe Acrobat. The same thing happens when you open a PDF in Photoshop ... you have to choose one page to open.

    Noticed today that the Comcast router has four Ethernet sockets on it, which is enough to take our switch/hub out of our LAN and plug in directly. To my surprise, all workstations now show speed test results of 174 M/bps for downloads. This is up from the 74 M/bps that some were testing at...
  12. Nix Color Sensor - Warning!

    Nix Sensor recently became a Merchant Member here and also is running a banner ad. I would recommend that you either contact them by phone at the numbers shown on their website Contact Us page, or use the Signs 101 private message feature to contact them here using their profile page. I think...
  13. Advice/Help/Info Needed Please

    There's a term used in valuing real estate: The highest and best use of the land. It is most obvious in looking at commercial land on a busy corner as compared to a similar sized lot in a run down neighborhood. The busy corner is worth a lot more and will justify more investment than the lower...
  14. pouncing help

    This really has nothing to do with FlexiSign ... only your ability to send a job to a plotter which could be any software. As far as I know, you can only make a pounce pattern on a plotter that actually has a rubber coated drum, such as the older Gerber plotters, instead of a plastic cutting...

  16. Help Opening File

    I've opened many an FS file and exported it out as something like an EPS, AI or PDF. The problem I've encountered with most of them is with fonts not being converted to outlines before the job was saved. Then when one opens the file they are confronted with the Flexi font substitution dialog...
  17. Help Opening File

    Actually, depending on the program being used, the terms "convert to curves", "convert to outlines" or "convert to paths" all describe the exact same thing.
  18. Label Job for a Repeat Customer

    It wouldn't work in conjunction with the table which uses a slot for the blade to extend into. It could possibly work with just the Javelin cutter assembly but you would need a super flat table and then you would lose your depth setting very quickly as the blade point wore down. Check THIS...
  19. Internet Upload Speeds

    Let me start by thanking all who recommended I look at cable. We ordered a setup from Comcast on Saturday to replace the AT&T u-verse internet hookup as well as our Directv setup. It was installed today. Comparison of speeds is amazing and our monthly outlay is about $90 less than we were...
  20. Label Job for a Repeat Customer

    Yes. We used a lot of Oracal 651 and 751 for a while but found an occasional conflict between a particular foil and vinyl combination. It was kind of weird because the same foil would print just fine on a different color vinyl and the same vinyl would print great with a different foil.
