  1. Do I Want to Get Into Lamacoid Manufacturing?

    A dozen tines a year I get a call about lamacoids. Some of the inquiries are from close clients that have large orders that they offer me. Wondering if should: 1) Find a Canadian Supplier that can give wholesale pricing.- Suggestions are welcomed. 2) Invest in a machine and learn something new.I...
  2. EPS File Too Big. Can I Make it smaller?

    I have an EPS File of a hedge that I bought online. When I drag it into Flexi it freezes up because it's too big. Can I make it smaller? I'm not worried about losing some of the quality. I have Adobe Illustrator and Corel, but not well versed in either.
  3. when you are ready to throw in the towel

    I think if everyone had a corn dog the world WOULD be a happier place
  4. when you are ready to throw in the towel

    What does a corn dog icon supposed to represent? I know it's off topic, but really, this thread went from a rant/ sob story to an argument over latex / solvent versus sign brokers ruining the business, so I figure it's as good as a place as any to ask that corn dog question. Anyone?
  5. Data Backup Questions- Tech Advice Needed (long post)

    This is a low-tech post, and most likely obvious to most, but in case it isn't- ransom ware will destroy anything that is plugged into the computer when it hits- external hard drives included. Please make sure that they are unplugged when not doing backup.

    Thanks peeps. Those are good.
  7. Anyone having trouble with Oracal 751 falling off in a few days?

    I'd be very surprised if that's old stock if it's just 751 white from a supplier. Any chance that someone used a pressure washer to clean those when you were done? Because if you imagine sweeping with a wand from left to right then back again as you go down the surface it screams pressure washer...

  9. Rollover vs Rollsroller

    My Ezy Taper does it all with a very small footprint. And doesn't even plug in.
  10. What does this test print mean?

    It certainly doesn't, even if the entire printer burst into flames at this point. But- would a bad head print the cyan perfectly and the black badly? Or is that the sign of another issue?
  11. What does this test print mean?

    So I had another thread started about my Roland SP300V Print head issues. With the help from a couple of wonderful peeps here, I got a little further in my problem solving: But... Now I've got 3 colours what looks like perfect test prints. Except for the black. I'm wondering if my Blue is...
  12. Looking for Roland Parts Dealer in Canada

    Need new DX4 Head, Dampers and F3 Fuse asap. Can anyone point me in a direction?
  13. Versacamm Help Required. Cleaned Head Now Not Printing

    Update. I jumped the F3 Fuse and all four colours are firing. Black head is still pooched, but at least I know where I am.
  14. Versacamm Help Required. Cleaned Head Now Not Printing

    So I checked the seal on the captop as suggested. It seemed to seal and suck ink through to the Y connector. I crossed the cables over at the heads from the M/Y to the B/C and it prints black and cyan. See attached. So I'm guessing it's something else.- But I'm still sure I need a new head- But...

    I'll PM The Winnipeg Tech and see. I'll keep updated for records sake.
  16. Versacamm Help Required. Cleaned Head Now Not Printing

    I actually DID purge the manifold and head with cleaner with a syringe. The fluid squirted out the head quite easily- Again, this was just in desperation and I didn't expect a miracle- just hoped for one. If it printed lousy again, I would be ordering up a new head with confidence tomorrow, but...
  17. Versacamm Help Required. Cleaned Head Now Not Printing

    I soaked the head in cleaning solution, and I got some fluid on the board, but thought I dried it off quite well before re-installing. When I switched the cables, some black came through though- but not a lot. Really stumped. I'm thinking of ordering a new head, dampers, and a manifold. Just...
  18. Versacamm Help Required. Cleaned Head Now Not Printing

    Yes, the M/Y printed with the cables swapped. The fuses all showed current The cable ends looked ok to me.
  19. Versacamm Help Required. Cleaned Head Now Not Printing

    So I tried it, then it printed some black, but barely. just a few specs. Test print only showed maybe a dozen or so nozzles firing. Switched the cables back- no black at all. So does this mean the head is shot AND I have wiring issues? When this all started I only had fuzzy lines on my black prints.
  20. Versacamm Help Required. Cleaned Head Now Not Printing

    In that case, the fuses are all still ok. Thanks. But still without black
