So if we are running Win 7, what's going to happen? Looking for the short story. Is this like Y2K? Am I going to show up one morning and my computer not work? Or is this more about when buying new puters?

Sure sounds like a lockout to me. Will the end users be given access once warranty expires? I guess when new printer sales come to a halt, the next step is to force as many of your current customers to pay excessive prices to maintain their equipment. It's a shame, we love our xj540 has been...

Wow that sucks if true.

Where have you all found best pricing/turnaround for Z bar and other traffic sign hardware?

Thanks for posting the pics. How long in between pictures of that van? First thing we did when we got our s80 was print blocks of color for each ink, a few test samples, laminated and unlaminted. They have been on a roof for about 3 months now. Will pull some down and compare to the...

Do you have any pics of these fading issues?

Anybody know this one?

What profiles are you using?

Sorry didn't mean to hijack thread.

Hammered gold leaf sheriffs stars with black image and text, very thin strokes for some of it. WE have always ovelaid printed clear vinyl on the gold leaf and never had a problem reading crop marks on a roland plotter. with the summa it can't read the marks this way. Am wondering if there...

How are you printing white reg. marks? Been having trouble with my summa reading reg marks printed on clear and laminated to gold leaf. Was wanting to be able to print white around the marks to block out the foil effect. Is this possible?

Ok I see now, you are referring to an s70, not GS3 inks.

Wouldn't red use mostly red ink?

I'm curious on this topic as well. We've had our s80 for a couple months now. As a precaution we are running anything outdoors with a CMYK lc lm lk profile, we run the red and orange for indoor stuff. But I've only ever seen a couple different people claiming short life span. We printed some...

We have a s80. For some solid colors like greens and blues in vehicle wraps, we are printing 8 pass, because there is some banding in those areas on 6 pass. I don't run the printers daily, but would like to get them able to run wraps at 6 pass. Where are you calibrating your media feeds? As...

I think 3651 is the comparable to 651, not 3165. We use quite a bit of 3651/210 for cheap signs and decals. We step up to 3551/290 if the signs are to be long term outdoor signs.

I don't follow? How long would you estimate for handling of material to get on/off the printer and laminator? I bet it's a whole lot less than sending the file to your plotter 100 different times. I understand you can be processing one decal on a table as you are plotting the next one, but...

If you have the capability to print/cut, especially at this quantity, why wouldn't you? I would print on 60" material, 2 wide, to a take up. Laminate to a takeup. Contour cut with barcode to take up (with weeding lines). So far about 30 minutes hands on labor, weeding would take about 4...

Print/cut. Will be much quicker to produce then trying to lay the red stripe in. Don't outsource, keep in house and price like johnny said, just make sure you add in markup on material and account for your waste.

old vs new style As you can see, the old style looks like a production grade piece of equipment. This new style looks and feels like a kids toy.
