  3. Question: Does anyone leave their mutoh printer on standby over long peroids of time?

    If your power supply is stable and your carts are not too close to empty it would be a good idea to leave it in sleep mode with at a minimum setting to have it wake up every 12hrs and do a short cleaning. That's the word I got from the dealer that sold me my 1624. I am a little hesitant as...
  4. UGHH New flexisign & print 12 update sucks!!! stay away!

    I am using Flexi 12 and not enjoying the experience much coming from Ver 8.6. Lots of the same issues and some new ones to add spice to every job. I can't complain too much as it was a free update with the Mutoh I purchased. If I had paid the upgrade price I would be a good deal more unhappy...
  5. Engineering drawings for permit?

    Surprised you didn't have to have PETA sign off on the glue used in the VBH being 100% animal gluten free......
  6. New Ford Aluminum Trucks - No Magnets - Options?????

    We have been testing a material called Unistick FX100. It is eco solvent printable and seems to stay on smooth painted or glass surfaces really well. The material is stiff like a 1mil pvc sheet but thinner - hard to cut. We've done some samples for the car dealer's lot and they have them...

    Check these guys out: http://www.sailrite.com/ultrafeed-portable-industrial-sewing-machines We have one and it is fine - lots of support on their site to get you started. wayne k guam usa
  8. 1624 + flexi 12 + IJ180c = good profile?

    Thanks for the reply. I did try the 720 x 1440 profile for the 180 from the Mutoh site but the result was not good. I'm trying to tweak a few of the 720 x 720 profiles but don't have it down just yet. Hoping someone here will have one they can loan me soon - 2 of the busses are sitting...
  9. How much concrete / Postecrete for a 6M flagpole?

    Lots of info out there on the web: This is for American flag poles but I assume it will work for Metric flags too: http://www.americanflagpole.com/ground-set/ And here is a step by step: http://anchorflagpole.com/flagpole-installation-c-24.html?cPath=24 wayne k guam usa

  11. 1624 + flexi 12 + IJ180c = good profile?

    Hi all, I have a new 1624x and can't seem to get a good clean print off of 180c. I'm getting light banding in the darker blues in the scan direction that I can't get rid of. I've downloaded the profiles from Mutoh, SAi & 3M for the 180 but can't seem to dial it in. All the print tests seem...
  12. pdf file that has vector and bitmap elements issue

    It's worth $20 a month just to have the latest Illustrator installed even if you just use it as a can opener for client's files. It does have some nice tools once you get past the not so intuitive workflow issues. wayne k guam usa
  13. Wall Mural Newbie- need help!!

    This might work, take a fist sized piece out of the backer/liner along each edge of your last panel low enough to be where your tape hinge would be. Use the exposed adhesive to tack your panel up and adjust the seam alignment. With just the 2 smaller patches sticking to the wall adjustment...
  14. My new sign installation lift...

    Looking good. How does the van pull the trailer - smooth? wayne k guam usa I wonder why they went with upper and lower case on one sign and all caps on the other.
  15. Any use of "strokes" or outlines should be for print only.

    You mean like this? A simple 5x6 show card. That Tokyo Subway line drawing looking stuff on the bottom is a masked wood texture (vector) that only displays as a 1/4"strip on the bottom. Gang up about 20 of these and the RIP starts crying as it tries to load them in.

  17. Can Flexi tell you the square footage of a shape?

    I didn't know it could do this either. Seems accurate, as a test I vector traced a full length photo of myself and it calculated my BMI in the normal healthy range for a 6 month old baby hippo. wayne k guam usa
  18. 3m 1080 for wrap "and" cut lettering ?

    We have used the 1080 red for cut graphics - works fine unless the lettering is small and or too detailed.
  19. Cutting & Tracking Issues.

    Think you need to post a little more info. 1. You have just the two pinch rollers? 2. Do you have it on a stand or how are you rolling the material into the cutter? 3. What kind of material are you cutting? 4. How long is the cut? 5. How are you squaring up material when loading? 6. How...
  20. Using the term "die cut" vinyl lettering

    What I hear quite a bit now days: How much to wrap my car? What do you have in mind? 3/4" stripe down both sides. We used to install die cut vinyl graphics kits from Trim Line and then 3M in the old days. wayne k guam usa
