  1. Valuejet - Long print not completing correctly / dumping ink

    Head might be going bad. Those random blocks of ink all the way across the platen point to an electrical problem. I had a similar problem with my 1304 recently but the head was just a few months old. What I did was open everything up and cleaned all the pc boards - pulled and reseated all the...

  3. Need some help with this effect

    In the pdf you uploaded you have too many overlapping paths (38). The part under the "A" was filled with red but didn't have an outline on it. The white line you see is from the shape under it that is filled with white and has the outline. You need to simplify it down, combine all the red...
  4. Need some help with this effect

    You need to set the stroke in front of the fill. With your path selected press F12 In the box look at the bottom and clear the checkmark on the "behind fill" option. Adjust the size as it will most likely be too thick. Should work. wayne k guam usa
  5. 2000 store install pricing

    This We service 13 retail stores here and just to do a network wide site survey - spending 15 to 30 minutes at each store eats up the whole day. Travel time between the stores even in a small local area adds up fast, especially if you are not familiar with the area. We have a good deal of...

  9. Conversion software FS to EPS - bulk

    FS is proprietary to SAi so if they don't have something (maybe in the cloud?) I don't think you will find any 3rd party app to do this. Hire a temp and let them go at it while you make money making signs..... wayne k guam usa
  10. Cut/plot question in X3

    I have not been using CM for very long but I have noticed it tends to choke with larger, complex files. To get around it I copy just the paths I want to cut and paste them into an empty file - cut from there without saving. delete that set and paste in the next color or layer or group and do...
  11. I did a ba-a-a-a-d thing...............................

  12. New logo! What do you all think?

    Logo needs lots of work - start over. I'm not going to judge the guy to much until I see how he responds here. From what has been posted he looks like a guy trying to earn a living in a hard economy. wayne k guam usa
  13. CJV30 How to control placement and start and endpoint of cuts?

    Not familiar with the printer/cutter or Rasterlink but a quick google search shows that v5 does have a sort function. Option #5 (hard to see in the screen cap) Not much info on it other than to turn it on or off. I use a Graphtec cutter that has a sort option that can be turned on and...

  18. BN20 Roll/Sheet sizes .... !?*&%^ !!!!!!

    Once in a while we have odd sized prints or material to cut that won't line up with the required pinch roller widths. We just add a strip of waste material down one or both sides for the rollers to clamp down on. (tape it on the release sheet side). This comes from the very early days of...
  19. buying new cutter

    You need about an 1" of material outside the registration marks for the rollers to grip (1/2"on each side) And you need about the same on the inside between the registration marks and the contours to be cut. If the graphics are too close to the marks the registration will error out. I think...
