you may still have some vapor lock inside your head. i'd first pull ink through the head via the waste line very very gently (sometimes the pumps just can't overcome vapor lock) and then to a standard cleaning cycle. the "dirty" ink is cross contamination... wouldn't worry much about it just...

nope, i just don't age. think it's all the MEK i'm exposed to. kinda works like formaldehyde. here's me and the gf (28) and my daughter (12) just this year.

thanks everyone. means a lot to get all the feedback. @Craig Sjoquist well, i'm not too young. ...43 years old. grew up with my mom being the bread winner professional artist. i went professional at 12 years old and have done nothing but paint and build art/stuff since. in fact my...

@barrerday depends, i guess. since i did this design the same rep has odered a 45' wall for the new houston eye center. my studio is pretty busy. as long as it's artistic and not strictly commecial, i'm good. the next thing i want to innovate is large format hot stamp foiling. that is...

as far a market... the average retail for high end anything in the artworld is about $500 psf. a rep or gallery will get half of that, the artist will be splitting his or her half with the rep. $500 retail psf $250 wholesale psf $125 artist's cost psf (rep gets the other $125) $10-$20...

it's not white clear acrylic. it's a custom finish that i sprayed on the back (misted opalescent white, then misted translucent latex matching the pre-existing wall color, then one more mist of opalescenct white, then clear coat). the graphic has the same figures printed behind in a bit of...

thanks,,, the material was korographics abaco beach. the installer mentioned that is the industry standard. that she runs into it more often than any other media/finishes. after seeing the tiny grain finish, i was glad that i didn't go with some more "creative" texture. there are so many...

finally got my first wall wrap finished. i have a new resect for you guys doing 50' of graphics. the 2500 pixel photoshop brush looks like the end of a cutip on a piece like this. next time i get something like this (and i already have two lined up) it's going to require a new dream...

i've been asking the same question. wanting an ipf9000. one observation i've made after reading and digging is that after about three years these machines do start to have issues. at least that is the drift i get from the imageprograf message boards. and you will see lots of comments like...

first time to join the dark side. for years i was asked if i could "sneak" in a logo or industry related imagery into pieces done for offices. this is the first actual sign that i in no way could convince myself that it was a piece of art. since then i've been taking more and more orders with...

? :)

did you put chips in your refill cartridges?

there is a god and it's a physicist.

false alarm... i got the job booked by: http://www.cgreenwallpapers.com/ need a wall wrap installer for a project in plano texas tomorrow. my wires/emails got crossed with the installer that took the job (he's 3.5 hours from the project) and now i am headed to the dallas area (a 6...

looks very bad. those M and lm patterns almost look like physical damage, the K and C look like there's hope. the Y looks similare to a clogged manifold (usually there will be missing halo near the middle of the pattern. i would not continue with cleaning patterns. as described earlier...

i'd assume that those heads are so dried up that you will have to take them out of the machine. my suggestion is take them out. buy those little ingredient containers used for cooking (tiny bowls). fill each one up so that you can sit the head across the rim so that the bottom of the head...

looks like a vacuum issue at the cap as a first guess. the pattern is similar to what is caused by air gettting into the cap and not sealing. also that pattern can be, but rarely, the manifold screen filter has clogged. this manifold filter might be the case on your printer becauce a bad cap...

@mosh. just got my gf a cricut (12") for her collage work! it's grandma friendly! but i still had to help her get started.

hp engineers are pretty much setting the pace lately.

the flooding of black is probably because the ribbon to it isn't seated properly. but also could be that it got damaged electrically in the cleaning and replacing. the price of these dx4 heads is insane. i'm sure epson at most has about $50 bucks or less producing them or they couldn't offer...
