Does anyone know how much of my current software I'll have to upgrade to make everything compatible? VersaWorks 3.0 Omega Composer 2.61 - I already know must be upgraded to 4.0 I believe. CorelDraw 9.0? PhotoShop 7.0? (I know, I know it's ancient)

Thanks for pointing that out. This same machine is in use running several programs simultaneously. I hate having everything slow down when it's processing files. I like to be busy with several "balls in the air".

Yes, I'd heard that. Will be upgrading both Omega and PhotoShop.

Ok, about to have a new machine built with these specs. Is there something I'm missing, over-killing, or a better route? We run a single digital printer off this particular workstation. We are a general commercial sign shop wrapping only about one vehicle a month. (but those files are often...

Print directly onto reflective vinly. Quicker, faster, cheaper. Multi-color also.

Good for you. Welcome from the Pacific Northwest! Are you screenprinting apparel or decals and signs?

Hi Ellen, Just wanted to thank you again for helping me. We are going to tender an offer this week. Maybe we'll end up owning an awards and engraving business. Charles

Geezus, that's quite the story. Sorry for ya. Just reading thru your experiences made me reach for the Rolaids and aspirin. We've all been there, dude. Hang in. Rolaids, h*ll! I think Gino's idea is about where it's at. Grey Goose on the rocks tonite guy.

You may do well to check a certain fuse (very, very small one) on the main board before going the expense of a main board.

Just yesterday I had a head changed out on our Roland. Don't know if the Mutoh is similar or not. But with all the processes involved I think you're bucks ahead to hire a tech. Aside from the task itself (and assuming you make no mistakes current wise) there's always the head alignment issues...

Seems to me you'd be better off taking some careful measurements at several points and creating a "shape" that resembles the hood. I imagine that most hoods are trapezoidal in shape. Basically a square that's squashed in at the top. Maybe yours is more complex, but you can create a shape that...

Thanks those of you that've replied. I'm encouraged so far.

Somebody tryin' to hijack my thread? (MikePro) lol

...in addition to running a sign shop? We have an opportunity before us to buy out an existing shop. Lock, stock and barrel. And operate it under one roof with our sign shop. Seems like it'd be a good fit? Yes? Anyone else doing this? Charles

Hello Roger and Mausheen. Welcome from the Great Pacific Northwest portion of the US. I'm sure your insights will enlighten. Good work on the limerick.

Fermons? Possibly mean pheromones?

They work good! In fact, we coincidentally just ordered a larger on this morning. They'll save more than they cost just in transfer paper the first year you have one. We've owned the two we have for about 10 years. We still use application tape for some jobs (the frames won't work for...

We've had the same thing. But don't these guys (who bitch and moan and complain) realize that they are lowering themselves (even if they pay their bils) into a lower class of customer? I mean we have A accounts, B accounts and of course PITA accounts. How do you feel when you see one of your...

We try not to have them come to the back shop, but sometimes it's just necessary. As I'm leading them back, I'll say something aloud like, "guys I have a client coming back". Makes the client realize that it's not the norm, and maybe we have "sensitive" things going on. We get them out of...

Probably's sitting in the south of France with his feet up. In a villa surrounded by hot chicks, cool breezes and tons of money....not.
