I am really starting to have my doubts about Flexi. It may be they have reached the point where the software is so complex they are having unintended interactions betwenn the main program and the Production Manager. I have been wrestling with this positioning problem for days now and wasting a...

For sure you can do it with vectors by just selecting shades of K. In bitmaps I'm not so sure there is a way to do that other than overlaying your greyscale elements with vectors.

Been having a problem with printing certain images. When I start the print the image shifts away from the right margin and prints off the media to the left. I am using Flexi Rip and Print with a 1204 Mutoh printer. In the Production Manager everything looks good, image is centered perfectly and...

I got it, thanks. I'm starting to wonder if the problem is with the image and not my color balance? I printed the two images at the same time along side eachother, on one bitmap test image and the gray scale came out good, but on the other image I got the blue greens instead of grays. What's odd...

Check this out about 7 minutes into the Setup Software video. http://www.signwarehouse.com/tv/?p=45

Thanks, I'll give that a try. I loaded my bitmap test image, and then I hunted for the color curve settings but could not find it. I searched the help file and could not find any mention of it there either. Could you tell me where to find this adjustment?

I am in the process of learning to run a Mutoh 1204GA eco-solvent CYMK printer using Flexi RIP and Print. My latest challenge is shades of grey. I can print out a shades of grey chart using only K and it comes out perfect, but if I print out a full color photo that contains grey scale elements...

Thanks for that information. Castek, I did as you suggested and I must say that's not a half bad looking red, and I can see how the type of light makes a big difference. Under a white light is goes to the orange tint, but under warm or incandescent it's definitely looking red. By reducing the...

It gave me an entirely different impression. For me it points out the fact that much of the digital printing industry is still in the dark ages. There is no reason why any wide format digital printer can't be as easy to use as a desktop or intermediate printer. As for me, I WANT a desktop...

In Ai Process or Spot?

Well, that certainly is interesting. That mixture on every other printer I've ever had produced red, and every CMYK color chart I've ever seen shows an equal mix of M&Y as shades of red, with 100% of each about as red as you can get. So what you are saying is that all those charts are lying, and...

Well, lets see, my intent is to have this printer print ANY object that's a bright fire engine red as a bright fire engine red. I'd settle for a red 4" square box that actually looks red and not orange. I mean there are only so many variations of color. When I print out a cmyk chart that has a...

Thanks, I'll give that a try as soon as I figure out how to get past the layers of color correction and profile crap in the software. Can you believe Mutoh doesn't supply a windows driver for this thing? It would be so easy if I could just shoot an image directly to the printer from Corel Draw...

My RIP is Flexi 10.5 Print and RIP. I am using Oracal 3651G which is a High Gloss bright white. I have tried the profile that was designed for that vinyl on this printer. I also tried several other profiles with the same results. But like I said, even the internal test print, without the...

Hi, I am trying to decide if this printer is a piece of crap or not. I got a new 1204GA and for the life of me I can not get this thing to print a bright red. Even when I print out the internal test print palette, with the printer set for it's highest quality, the red comes out more like a deep...

Wow, thanks for all the tips, you guys are the greatest. :U Rock:

I have searched and searched the Internet, and contacted several vinyl distributors. Nobody seems to know where to obtain the vinyl for making bumper stickers. One in particular has a bend and split backing that makes peeling the back off a breeze. I figure this must be one of those best kept...
