  1. static cling on vehicle windows

    I just did cling for a customer and that worked until he took them off the first time. Nowhere to store them. He could never get them put back on as good as the first time. If the customer's magnets fell off, he's probably not cleaning the surface of his vehicle, not cleaning the magnet, or...
  2. Recommendation for optical sensor plotter

    It's all in the setup with the Graphtec. I've been running a FC8000-160 for two years now. It took me a few months to the the print/cut dialed in, but now - works all the time. I don't need super speed, so I usually cut at about 30 cm/s. I just finished doing a bunch of decals with runs up...
  3. Flexi Killed my Omega

    What Tony said works. I had to do this at one point. Now, when ever I have to re-install. I install Flexi first and then Omega. I just did it last week. Worked perfectly.
  4. Any Gretag Macbeth Eye-One Share Gurus out there?

    I used to take a sample of my PMS book and a sample of what I actually printed to see how close they were. I think anything below 3 is acceptable. I would print off a bunch of squares with cmyk formulas that I thought were close and compare them to the pantone PMS book. That would tell me...
  5. Pricing out Trailer Wrap HELP!!

    The market in my area is all over the place. Anywhere from $6 to $12. Depends on who you ask. For fleet jobs, we are at $9 and that's competitive. You can get more for a one off job and you always have to explain to the customer why you are not giving them the same job as the $5 per sq.ft...
  6. Dual Output Video Card

    There are only two types of reference design cards. One is Nvidia, the other is AMD (ATI Radeon). The PNY GeForce is an Nvidia card. Looks like you have PCI-X card there. Be sure your power supply is up to snuff for putting in a better video card. Typically, a better card will require an...
  7. Adding a third monitor

    Thanks for the tips! I will probably try it this week. I have everything I need actually. My mobo and power supply support two PCI-X video cards and I have an extra video card already.
  8. Adding a third monitor

    ProWraps - so, you are using 2 video cards? I was thinking of trying the same thing in one of my other work stations with an older card, but wasn't sure if it would work.
  9. Gerber Edge parts list?

    I have a SR1500. It ran fine on store bought USB to parallel for years. Before that, I ran it with a 15' parallel cable. Now, I can't get it to run on anything but the one 6' Belkin that I had laying around. I bought a 10' and 15' Belkin and it wouldn't work on either. I could not get the...
  10. Adding a third monitor

    If you want 3 screens like one big desktop, you will need a newer generation of ATI video cards. The lowest one I think is the ATI 5770. I have one and 3 - 23" monitors is nice!! Unless you get a dual video card and a splitter, but they will only clone the one monitor. Not give you 3...
  11. Equipment Financing

    A lease company does not do financing. It is a lease with purchase at the end usually. (for $1 or whatever). It is loan sharking. They use a money factoring rate. More like a service fee - not an interest rate. I just bought some new equipment and talked with several lease companies before...
  12. FC8000 die cutting

    My FC8000 can do a Convex combination of 18 mil (6 mil convex, 12 mil pro-shield). I usually do 2 passes though so I don't put too much stress on the blade. I notice the blade wears out pretty fast doing complete die-cuts. The cutting of the backing paper/liner is what does the damage I believe.
  13. JV3-160S on Onyx Postershop x10 with Win7

    I've been using winXP for my JV3 also, but I'm tired of XP. Every other computer I own is either win7 or Vista. 3 at work, 4 at home. I had it working on Vista with Flexi, but I'm not sure if it will work with Onyx. I'll find out soon enough.
  14. JV3-160S on Onyx Postershop x10 with Win7

    nobody??? I just got Onyx in the mail yesterday, so I'll be figuring it out sometime next week anyway...I'll post my findings.
  15. mainboard burning head? two error07's in a week

    Alan - thanks for your help today. I'm glad we could help each other out. My problem is solved and I hope that head works out for you. Let me know. I'm not sure what was causing my starvation, but after purging the line and changing the in line filter, I'm back up and running. Now, if I...
  16. AMD vs Intel

    I will go ahead and throw my $.02 in... I upgrade my machines every year. I like having fast machines. Keyword - fast. What I have noticed over the last ten years...The faster processor gets the job done quicker. What is that worth to you? All of my systems are currently Intel. They are all...
  17. new printer

    +1 I signed the contract yesterday on a HPL25500 with Onyx x10 Postershop. Total was under $19k.
  18. Digital print applied over wallpaper?!?

    I used the 3M concrete wrap with good results. Apply lots of heat!
  19. factory motorcycle graphics

    I have all of it, but I made it/copied it all myself. What you see on eBay is just the same files being passed around. I did it for factory backed race teams with permission.
