  1. FYI re:LG Hausys LD3910 Print Film

    Just as a caveat to anyone out there who hasn't tried it. You know the saying "get what you pay for"? Well, this is a perfect example. Don't buy this stuff unless you run a separate room for printing and don't mind dealing with the cheapest feeling vinyl you've ever tried. I'm not complaining, I...
  2. Questions about printing backlit sign

    I like the printing twice on clear idea, applying to a white lexan. That means that you're printing only the CMYK on the clear and allowing the white of the substrate to complete the image, correct? Also I would ask for suggestions for the clear material you're printing on.
  3. Super J-Star Ink? Feedback Please?

    Not connected to that brand, but I was the staunchest opponent of the OEM inks.. price and availability. Until I switched. Did research and went with ElevenTen. Found plenty of opinions for it and wound up with a hefty repair bill and a week of downtime for my troubles. Never again, OEM only.
  4. Any suggestions on improving Flexi's rasterizing performance?

    Ok, so if it automatically finds PS and rasterizes using that software I have a question. Does it run PS inside "app"? If I'm rasterizing and I open task manager I don't see any photoshop running. Just curious, maybe I have something set wrong or a bad path or such. OOPS myself. I think I...
  5. Any suggestions on improving Flexi's rasterizing performance?

    Hmm. No, I don't believe I do! How do I change that setting? I'll look in the manual (I am a self-taught user.. admittedly not the best way but I'm attention span-challenged) but if you could drop me a tip on that it would be awesome. Thanks, Fred! Ian
  6. Any suggestions on improving Flexi's rasterizing performance?

    I understand a little about the processes involved but IMO knowing a little is much more dangerous than knowing nothing at all. I'm attempting to rasterize a bunch of transparent layers in a 4'x10' sign I have to print to translucent. It sat about 40 minutes on 0% (when I was finally patient...
  7. Missing font CRIPPLING flexi HEEEEELLLP!!!!

    Odd, my last post that I left yesterday did NOT actually post even though I saw it. Ok, the people at SAi responded to my query almost instantly and sent me the correct font!!! It WAS MS Sans Serif, but for some reason it came up as another name when they sent the font. Who knows. Point being...
  8. Missing font CRIPPLING flexi HEEEEELLLP!!!!

    ... and micross.ttf is safe and sound in the fonts folder. It's an open type though.. might I have deleted the true type version? I don't see MS Sans Serif in the Flexi fonts folder..... I see MS Reference Sans Serif......
  9. Missing font CRIPPLING flexi HEEEEELLLP!!!!

    No such animal. Went through every folder and subfolder on the disc. No fonts at all. There are two "data.cab" files I can't open. They show up as .rar but they're not.
  10. Missing font CRIPPLING flexi HEEEEELLLP!!!!

    Teri, yes. jhill yes and no. I thought I was only deleting some of the crappy free fonts I'd downloaded over the years. No such luck. Need to find out what font that is so I can find and reinstall it.
  11. Missing font CRIPPLING flexi HEEEEELLLP!!!!

    What I mean is when you look at that tool and you have a solid fill selected (or a gradient) there's a name for that color/gradient. The font that that is in, wherever that's drawn from. It's text so it can change with the selection. Hold on. I'll post a screenshot. So you see where it says...
  12. Missing font CRIPPLING flexi HEEEEELLLP!!!!

    Did it this time. Evidently I deleted the font that Flexi uses to indicate color in the Fill/Stroke Editor. Result? The text it defaulted to is too large and resizes the tool, and since the box the tool is in is NON adjustable it is essentially hiding a button or two. Anyone know which text...
  13. FC700 MK2 130 is drunk....

    Ok, got a callback from a very helpful (but seemingly under the weather, hope you feel better, man!) tech at Graphtec. I had fixed a similar issue on my CE model, but wasn't sure if it was the same issue. Little scared to tackle it myself, basically because it's still under warranty. However...
  14. What do I need to print business cards/cut them???

    Been using 4Over for years now... they have a plant in Moonachie, NJ now so I get business cards in DAYS. They're really amazing, a 16pt glossy double sided card, 1000 for $24. They offer options like rounded corners, C1S (uncoated backsides) and spot UV coating as well.... all printed in the...
  15. FC700 MK2 130 is drunk....

    Awesome. No one at Graphtec to answer the phone in tech. Fantastic. Just found out I'm under warranty which is wonderful news, but let's see if I can get a call back before september! When I finally do get it fixed I will make sure they tell me what it was and re-post what had to be done for...
  16. FC700 MK2 130 is drunk....

    I have started seeing issues with my plotter starting a few months ago... I normally cut large contours, but occasionally I get small cut jobs. It used to be a champ, cut great with no issues. I just recently replaced the cutter strip (three years on) and the blade holder and blade... no...
  17. magenta printing black

    really? that's fantastic.. i really appreciate that! i have to put out for the maint. station and possibly the labor, so that cartridge would help. i will call tomorrow. thanks!!
  18. magenta printing black

    Actually, the Magenta problems were the easy ones! Those were solved by replacing the magneta.. the chip or printer malfunctioned and didn't read when it was empty. Actually, no. The pattern is only with the magenta... the black is printing a light band of green at the bottom and printing a...
  19. Maintenance Station Replacement

    Seen a few threads on here regarding this, none with any actual technical information though. Unless there are no walkthroughs or technical info available... hard to believe. Can anyone actually HELP in replacing this part? Any photos or diagrams?? I find these sorts of things to be rather...
  20. Mutoh 1204 VJ Print Issues

    Wait, different media? Did you look at the photos? It's ONLY in magenta and black. Would you seriously think that that could be the media?
