  1. 2POINT Registration Marks

    Where are you making these settings, on the plotter or in the software, and to what is the plotter's Command Priority set? If you're making the settings on the plotter and the plotter's Command priority isn't set to 'Manual' then the software is overriding the settings. If you're making the...
  2. Font copywrites????

    The term is 'copyright' not 'copywrite' and things are 'copyrighted' not 'copy written'. Knowing the nomenclature is half of all wisdom. Regardless, it's not a copyright issue, it's a licensing matter. Lots of purchased font files come with a license agreement that clearly states you cannot...
  3. Compatible Cartridge for Mutoh Eco Max- Nearly 40% savings

    If you're trying to sell this stuff at least try to get the terminology right. Eco Max is Roland, Eco Ultra is Mutoh.
  4. Flexi Pantone Chart?

    Producing a usable Pantone color chart in Flexi is relatively simple... View->Color->Open Table... select ...Swatch->Library->Pantone(r) process coated.slb View->Create Swatch->Current Palette select 'Pantone(r) process coated.slb' from the drop down list at the bottom of the Design Central...
  5. Head STRIKES... Help???

    Put a piece of banner material on your take up roll as a leader. Load the media to print and tape the leader to the media right at the platen. Just butt the leader up to the media and use three or four pieces of masking tape to join the two. I do this any time I want to use the take up...
  6. What kind of Fonts would you like to see more of?

    I'm sure that you sell the hell out of those. To me they and their brothers represent sign writer schlock, a hand you use when you don't have time to do it properly. If you want to do an interesting face, watch the movie Blazing Saddles. In one scene in the governor's office there's just a...

  8. VJ 1304 media thikness +

    You might try raising the head before you print. The head height specification is 1.5mm low and 2.5mm high. You should be able to feed most anything this side of a road kill cat. No civilized person prints with the head in the low position. The 42 pounds is indeed the total weight of the...
  9. Enlarging photos need help?

    Get PhotoZoom Pro or Alien Skin Blow Up and do it properly. There is no technique in Photoshop or PhotoPaint or whatever that even comes close to what these proprietary packages can do.
  10. Extended warranty on Mutoh 1604.

    No. When someone sells you an extended warranty they're pretty sure that the dollar value of the amount of violence your machine is going to experience over the term of the warranty is less than the cost of the warranty. By at least half. Cue the heart wrenching horror stories wherein...
  11. VE LXi Master settings

    Not quite. Improper offset manifests itself as either rounded or over driven corners, not endpoints. Once set, offset doesn't age or change. If the machine was once working properly then offset is an unlikely cause. All offset is is the delta between the blade's center of rotation and the...
  12. VE LXi Master settings

    Oh, that... Your blade is dull and/or the blade positioning tackle, especially the up/down mechanism is contaminated with dust and debris.
  13. VE LXi Master settings

    From what are you importing? If, say, you're importing something created in Corel that's packing a outline done in Corel you'll get all manner of weirdness at each corner. If this is the case, you need to convert the outline to an object back in the source program. As far as entering text...

    Yup. Mrs. Efiginia Doubtfire, practicing Komondor and chief security officer here at the home. Congratulations, you're maybe the 3rd person ever that correctly identified her.
  15. Graphtec not completing cuts

    Not quite. CB09 represents .9mm diameter blades and CB150 represents 1.5mm diameter blades. Each size has both 45 and 60 degree blades available. Each diameter has its own blade holder. Graphtec's blue blade holder is for .9mm blades and the red blade holder is for the 1.5mm blades...
  16. random ink splotches or drops on media!?

    Wrong. Random ink droplets are almost always the result of a piece of lint or hair or something on the print head. The hair collects ink until it forms a droplet and the it falls onto the print. Clean the metal bezels around the print heads as well as the wiper. You might as well check the...
  17. Paper backing from vinyl..is it biodegradable?

    Everything is 'biodegradable' [whatever that might mean], some things merely take longer than others.
  18. Run flexi and Production Manager on Separate Computers

    Easy, if the two machines are on the same network. Just put the hasp key in the machine that's running Production Manager. You can install Flexi on any number of machines on the same network but it will only allow one iteration to run at one time. Simply run Production Manager on the machine...
  19. Mutoh Falcon Outdoor 62 Print Head Replacement

    www.cmykparts.com A damn sight cheaper than the robber barons at CGI. And yes, you can replace them yourself, it's not rocket surgery.
  20. falcon outdoor jr black looks green

    Somehow I get the feeling that the most of you are trying to produce black via profiles and color correction. If that's the case, good luck. There is no reason to invoke color correction on anything but bitmaps. Your rendering intents should be set to 'no color correction' or 'spot' on...
