    just pick some random options that you like & may cover every "type" of font that you already have: sans/serif, script, & comic sans and just roll with it. we do options all the time, and they rarely end up with more than one or two revisions, but make sure your options are clearly labeled and...

  3. Question Dried solvent Ink

    typically, finished product off of a solvent/ecosolvent printer SHOULD be laminated for longevity and at that point, its no different than having a plastic fork on your dinner table. If unlaminated, its still not "bad"...i guess, BUT little bits of plastic (pigments) will most likely scratch...
  4. HP Scitex or R1000

    was interested in the FB when I first started shopping flatbeds, but I'm in LOVE with the R-series's design/function. Soooo close to pulling the trigger, but I need more sq.ft'age in the shop I can dedicate to a clean area.
  5. People are getting edgy lately...

    virtue signaling is trendy nowadays. Much easier to join the mob in shaming others, than live in fear of the mob turning on you instead. ...and yeah, the mask is definitely an amplifier. between protests, rallies, covid, & swinger parties... you'll definitely notice its the people wearing...
  6. Direct UV print to backlit washed out when lit.

    image > white layer > image is standard, even on white trans. unless you want to make the panel the white layer and print images on either-side of the substrate, but that would require alignment when you flip the panel.
  7. No "convert fonts" options when doing a save as pdf?

    i just made a script in Adobe Acrobat, that converts a .pdf file to outlines. Now I just open the file, click a button, and then click another button and it saves over itself. steps are available via google if you need to do it yourself, basically requires you to add a watermark to the...

    i can appreciate the "get 'er dunn" mentality :) took me a hard zap to stop dickin' around for the sake of a rush, luckily it was a fluorescent ballast i was reaching-up for. hands turned to stone and pulled themselves away from the circuit.

  10. Tips for a pattern on a windy day

    3M 77 Spray Contact Adhesive is my go-to otherwise i've also grabbed some Krylon 7010 from my local hardware store in a pinch. ...pretty much anything labeled contact adhesive really, but the lighter-duty stuff for mounting paper/posters has the best coverage with less-mess, and is cheaper$$$...
  11. Need Help Why does this chinese printer have a bad printout when i add ink.

    are you manually filling by pouring from a bottle or are you simply replacing ink cartridges? my best guess is that you ran your ink low to the point of starvation and even though you've refilled the supply you're still not getting fresh ink to the printhead properly at the start of your print.
  12. I need to Uninstall a lighted sign.. If it difficult?

    youtube "Lock Out Tag Out" and you'll be fine. its all about making sure that you've disconnected power from the source, and lock out any possibility of someone turning on the power while you have your hands on the wires. disconnect wires, cover each wire with wire nut & secure with electrical...

    we spray glue to coro for most projects, regardless of wind conditions. half the time, our sales staff or installers don't realize how ridiculously textured/uneven the mounting surface is and coroplast patterns save HOURS of dilly dally. just make sure to save the coroplast for the next...

    inks aren't the issue, as there are a few 3rd party manufacturers such as SAM ink printheads & maintenance kits, however, I have yet to find a source then again, i haven't really been looking since I still have a backup set of each printhead and two of each ink cartridge and my 26500 has been...

  19. All it's missing is the circus music...

    interesting to see a guy who championed segregation playing the racist card over and over and over again. my takeaway from this debate, is that I hate politicians even more now.... long gone are the days of tactful banter and veiled snubs, and debates on ACTUAL policy. Start buying stock in...
