GOOD POINT. and YES, they should be solid. the point of MediaComp function is to see if any gaps/overlaps appear in stacked, solid, black bars and you cannot accomplish this with a printhead firing @ <50% post pics of your test print (button on the printer) and another pic of your test print...

got pics of those blocks &, most importantly, your nozzle-check test prints? could be as simple as an alignment issue. ...or maybe an encoder/strip issue. was the install recent? if i paid a tech for new heads and a bulk system, then I'd be riding him pretty hard until it was printing 100%.

+1 just rolling a radius and bending the returns. EZPZ.

I use my Seal 54 to apply 24"x96" boards with double-sided graphics ALL THE TIME. LOVE IT! hardest part, is to make sure you're square at the start and the rest applies like a breeze. recommended, however, if you have a LOT of smaller boards.... then apply multiple copies as 1 sheet and cut...

Apologies for the Zombie thread, but I came across this while searching before posting my own issue. Any resolution to your issue? id chime in, now years after the fact, that the streaks you see could be a non-issue. Just ink pooling in spots in the clear backer, that won't show up in your...

perforated vinyl is just vinyl with holes in it. cut per usual.

if you DO go the route of 3D routing, i'd suggest HDU foam. much smoother finish. are you misinterpreting? maybe it is acceptable to simply route your acrylic letters and mount along/atop a radius? otherwise, it might be worth a sample to try: if the letter is large enough, HDU should have...

:popcorn: liquid lam. only good for banners and MDO signage, imho.

malfunctioning printer is the cause, gotta be. your other thread, regarding the printer issues, should resolve this mess. fix the printer, and you can get back to print/cut per usual.

a defunct ribbon cable would cause lack of firing. but, dear lord man, CLEAN YOUR PRINTHEADS! clean printheads/capping station ensures good connection between the two, and allows the ink pump to refresh the siphon-effect of the ink. also, if you have a "melted ribbon cable"... which I can only...

handle it like you would a paper towel, that's dripping-wet. and then if it folds over on itself, take the time to peel it apart.... with a good portion of the graphic already adhered to your surface, as to give you the ability to only hold-on to a portion of the graphic while working out the...

ouch. its nice to have a workaround, temporarily, but i'd be working on fixing your printer properly first and then moving on to figure out your cutter woes. 1/4 of your printheads being down is unacceptable, regardless. start a new thread regarding the printer issues, with pics of your test...

great tool, and easily ordered from the Fellers' catalog. I'm about to order two more, as we keep fighting over who's toolbox it stays in. three months of heavy use, and the teflon tape finally started peeling-up at the leading edge. I simply clipped-off the part of the tape that wouldn't...

we weld the faces with returns, to make aluminum pans. ...or simply bend the returns & weld the inside corners, if small enough. premount 2x2x2" angles to the wall, corners and centers, and cup the pan onto the wall over the angles. secured with screws.

thanks! yeah, i was thinking i was going to go that route, as well.

looks like media buckling to me. try running on low temp, slow speed.

sooooo like, I have a buncha police cruisers that want gold shields on their car. no one wants to vouch for any gold-effect vinyl out there?

aye, Century is way better. I may just go with that, thanks Gino!

kind of like a Georgia, but the serifs would have to be stretched.

Arlon DPF8000 great price, and an incredibly strong adhesive.
