  1. Can you make a HP Latex 310 print faster?

    I've had this 310 for 4 years or so now I believe. It's basically been trouble free, and I haven't even had to replace the heads yet, and colors are still good. My only complaint I've had over all this time, is in Onyx before, I could I always go in (on my Mimaki) and make it 4 pass, 8 pass...
  2. Font ID Please?

    Oh, you're good Fred. You're GOOOOOOOD.
  3. Font ID Please?

    This is a rough one, but trying to match it for a boat for some guy. Anyone ever seen this before? WhatTheFont had nothing close as a suggestion.
  4. Weekends

    I'm glad to see the responses here. I've been around this place a long time (although I've tried to cut back on "social media" lately, so not as much as in previous years) and everyone always talked about how maximized out they were and how they couldn't keep up, working a billion hours etc...
  5. Wrapping a 50ft tall concrete silo. Anyone ever done something similar? Pricing and time?

    I'm with everyone else, I'd like to know how this ended up. I'm saying for sure ANYTHING else other than sticking it directly to it would be the way to go. If it's already printed, I'd have loved to been the guy that got that credit card and ran it before printing all of that.
  6. Need Help At what Ink level do you replace your ink

    I ran mine down to 0ml on my HP once, and I had to replace the heads on that particular color because they say I starved the head of ink and it jacked it up. I don't know if that's true or not, but since then (3.5 years) I've replaced at about 20ml and I've literally never replaced a head. I'm...
  7. Did Signs 365 change their shipping to...?

    I also noticed they ditched the two day delivery. If I wasn't in a hurry I'd save a couple bucks and let it come two days later, but I haven't been able to select that as an option either.
  8. Random Next Day Bubbles

    I actually had to replace a few in this order for ones that already faded from two years ago (and they're only out 4-5 months of the year) that were flat bed printed. I subbed them out and was super less than happy with results so went old school and just did it the long way to get the life out...
  9. Random Next Day Bubbles

    So here's what happened for the end of the story. Called Grimco, they said it looks like a bad roll, asked for the lot number, and said throw it in the trash and we'll refund your money. I needed to get the job out, so I printed it on some cast oracal that I had here, printed, laminated...
  10. Random Next Day Bubbles

    So if I accept that theory, it still doesn't explain why it's just now happening after using this same combo for years. I understand what you're saying, but it doesn't jive up with anything else. I lay down cast air release, calendered air release everyday on way bigger projects with a big...
  11. How stressed are you?

    I kinda made a choice early in life that I wasn't going to be involved in 1000 things, and have my kids doing stuff "just because". All my friends have their kids in soccer. Their kids hate it. They complain about doing it, the parents complain about how much time it takes, and yet every...
  12. Random Next Day Bubbles

    UPDATE: I stripped the vinyl off of one of the sign boards, cleaned it with alcohol, reprinted one of the pieces (as to see if it's consistent before reprinting a whole flippin order) and laid it down. Looked perfect, and I was happy, but decided to let it sit a day just to make sure it didn't...
  13. No, your sign isn't done yet.

    I kinda struggled with that too. Everyone wanted me to keep hours that they could just stop by whenever it was convenient for them...and I totally get that, that's the way business is done all over the place. I basically closed my front door two years ago now, and I put up a sign that just...
  14. Random Next Day Bubbles

    If you poke the bubble, it will lay down...but on air release, it's always just worked out when I pushed it out. It's just so weird that it's morphed into something NOT air release. I guess I'm going to be cleaning stuff off now as these were new boards from Grimco.
  15. No, your sign isn't done yet.

    This happens to me LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE TIME. EVERY TIME! I told my wife on the last one last week that we did for the city that it was going to happen, and sure enough, they wanted an exclamation point removed after we had printed them soon as we got approval. They decided just to live...
  16. Credit Card Rewards

    We normally average $2000-3000 a year in rewards.
  17. Random Next Day Bubbles

    What's to de-gas? It's latex? I've literally printed stuff for 4 years on this printer and this just happened for the first time. I'm not saying your wrong, but I don't know what has to outgas on a latex machine. And Gino, what's DP mean? I haven't been active on the forums much lately...
  18. Random Next Day Bubbles

    Yes, they're laminated.
  19. Random Next Day Bubbles

    Well, believe it or not, I don't own a laminator. 75% of what we do is temporary auction signs that we have to lay down by hand because the edges of them are beat up from transport, so I've just always laid them down with the big squeegee. It's never failed me, so I'm just trying to figure out...
  20. Random Next Day Bubbles

    Nope, never once in 15 years have I ever done it. I did another 4X8 on the exact same day and it still looks ship shape normal.
