You are in View> Preview mode and not Outline mode right? Sometimes the obvious happens.

I have the 7000 also but I've never ever seen a spark from a USB cable. My first guess would be you have a bad cable that's shorted somewhere. Just to make sure, I'd think about taking the iMac in and having them run a test on the uSB ports just in case there's something loose there.

Welcome for another HP9000s owner.

I don't print from Illy, I design in Illy and set my registration marks from cuttingmaster in the file. I open and print the file in Posterjet on my HP9000s with the cut layer "turned off". After the prints dry and maybe laminated, I load it in the Graphtec and aline the knife within the...

Not really. CuttingMaster is Graphtec's driver for Illustrator. It basically cuts whatever you place on a cut layer. The plug in won't work in Flexi.

Are you sure that there's no dirt or fuzz on the light? Just a thought. I have a FC7000 and if I'm anywhere close to square lining up the vinyl it always finds the marks. Glossy, matt, laminated, whatever. I'm using Cutting Master out of Illustrator for my cutting instead of my RIP. I ran 125...

Sell the plotters and get a Graphtec. They come with an Illustrator plug in to cut from and it's simple and works very good. Illustrator should open your Corel files also. There you go. Of course, if Gerber actually upgraded MacImprint you could keep your HS 750 also. Don't slap me Tony. :-)

Here in Michigan too. Put a roof on my deer blind with it and got 4 years out of it. I use 10mm for a roof over my kayak rack and got 5 years out of the first one and am 3 into the second.

Murph, If that stock in under the "aqueous" category, it should be the right stuff. Make sure that your banner stock is the correct side up also. If everything else is right, try using the profile for draft paper. That should be the lightest ink deposit profile.

You do know that UV inks on your 5500 are not UV Curable inks, but pigment inks that are UV stable. Having said that, is the banner material that you have for Aqueous inkjet inks or for UV curable inks? I think that you have the incorrect stock. The setting on the printer shouldn't have that...

Happy BD from the Mac side Joe!

I've taken awhile to report on my experience with Fieldcenter's inks until I've used enough to give an honest report. At this point, I've used half of 4 colors and have experienced no issues whatsoever. No plugged printheads, no noticeable color shifts. I'm a contented customer, especially with...

Here's the link on our website. There are all vinyl. THe local RR Historical Society provided me with accurately scaled DXF files which I converter to Illy and cut. Installed all my myself. The only incident was my ladders and pic were into the next track which was active and a train came...

NazDar's DA series screen ink will adhere. It's catalyzed and more of a paste than ink, but it will work. Expensive and the catalyst is hazardous. . . but it will work.

Interesting. What brand of inks and bulk system are you using? Does the price savings seem to be worth the initial expense? Thanks

My mom died two weeks ago Mosh. Think about it. . . .

I usually just turn it to paths and run the "simplify" filter in Illustrator at about 98%. It looses about 40% of the nodes without messing up the general letterform.

How about a roll of 2" masking tape? I've also used removable adhesive vinyl on products like DacTac with decent results.

One thing to remember is 99% of your customers cannot open a vector file, therefore they stash it away or throw it away. Ask them if there is one or their logo files that they cannot open on their own computer, probably an eps file. Often the lights go on, "Ohhh, yea, I have one of those." It's...

I'll relate to you my experience. I replaced all of my 791 inks back to 790's and did a complete purge cycle. Even after, that my magenta, (which is the only color that was acting up), didn't print cleanly until the 4th or 5th print of a poster run. There are still a couple of jets that plug...
