  1. JV3 160 Print Issues

    I'm having the same issue. Not as bad as yours, but it happens on 100% cyan and rich black. I print CMYK bands to get everything firing off and then it goes away. I use up about 4-5' of material. I have new dampers that I'm going to install and see if that helps the issue.
  2. What to measure to when doing a wrap.

    for vans, we usually back up and see what looks good. On the front doors, we typically stick with the body lines. Unless they are way off...
  3. %age of lamination %$#$% ups?

    Way less than 1% I think once you understand how it works, you don't make many mistakes. I have been to many shops that eat up 20% or more of their prints just because they (the operators) don't know how to properly setup their laminator and understand what is actually happening. Why the...

    Welcome from Houston, TX!!!
  5. Designing, CMYK or RGB?

    Design in CMYK, export as RGB. 99 out of 100 come out very close to what was on the screen. Of course we have Pantone charts printed with our favorite settings and use those to color match/color choose when necessary.

    me too...the Vertex 2....mmmmmmm
  7. Can i span .040 aluminum 4ft??

    We do it with 3mm Dibond all the time, but we add a header and footer. In other words, frame it out. With a frame, we have no problems.
  8. SSD Drives Revisited

    choucove, check out the link http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136555&cm_sp=ProductSpotlight-_-22-136-555-_-04092010 It has arrived. And the price...very tempting...
  9. usb - usb 2 cable....how long can I go?

    Choucove, we did the same thing. After remodeling and moving equipment around, our single 25 footer was not long enough. Just adding a USB extender was not good enough/plotter was not recognized by the computer. I actually went and purchased the CAT5 kit (which looks like it would be awesome...
  10. Gerber omega 2.02 on Windows 7 (64bit)

    And how much is the upgrade from 3.0 to 4.0? Jeesh, I just bought 3.0 in January....
  11. usb - usb 2 cable....how long can I go?

    I'm running 31 feet to my Graphtec on USB. 6 foot from computer to USB hub. 25 foot from hub to plotter. I found the 25 footer at Fry's.
  12. SSD Drives Revisited

    I have a OCZ 120gb Vertex on my Rip Station. It made a huge difference in rip times.
  13. SSD Drives Revisited

    I read this on Newegg - "I built a new system with the components above, and my Asus P6X58D mobo bios saw this drive as a SCSI RAID device (which it should), Windows 7 recognized this drive immediately and started installing." Interesting for sure. He was referring to a 512gb Z drive. I'm...
  14. Need help with network in the shop..

    And also make sure the correct users have privileges set up. In other words make sure you can read/write and not just read. Also, you may want to just map a network drive for the folders you visit most.
  15. Gerber omega 2.02 on Windows 7 (64bit)

    Okay...a revisit...after hearing Tony say it will work... I reinstalled the drivers on my Win7 x64 and Omega 3.0 is working. Just the design station. Now, I'm going to try and run the Edge I next week on a Win7 32 bit when I have time. I setup Omega 2.6 on Vista x64 last year, but there...

    Not really in the area...I PM'd you a while back. Titan Signs and Graphics in Houston. I'm near 610@ Ella. I have a sister-in-law that lives off of Kuykendahl and 2920. Over by your shop kind of. I live in Jersey Village area.
  17. Another Pool Company Wrap...

    I passed right by A-Beautiful today on Beudreoux Rd. The trucks looked really good. I actually wondered if you might had done them.
  18. Gerber omega 2.02 on Windows 7 (64bit)

    Yep, I'm getting tired of being tied to Win XP just to run my Edge I....I have been wanting to try it on 32bit Win 7, but I've been reluctant. Just don't want to go through the headache for possibly nothing....Tony, will the Edge I work on Win 7 32 bit?
  19. Graphtec Plotter

    +1 FC8000-160 I've had mine for about a year now. I love it!!
  20. Distributor Central vs. ASI, Sage, or PPAI

    +1 on just getting to know the vendors. I did ASI over 10 years ago for one year. It was worth it to learn alot about different vendors. I now just contact vendors/manufacturers directly. They have never turned me down because I don't have an ASI number. I have a couple of brokers that use...
