Thanks Glavin_ID, I believe this could be the same issue we had for our printer. I turned off the printer, unplugged the machine and plugged it back in. One thing I did not know is that the plug has to turn to the right after it is in the socket. The machine worked again after we turned the...
Hello, when I try to print something, I get an error for the UV Lamps, but this error does not show up with an error message. On the home screen, it just says "Error" on the right side.
The lamps are at about 650 hours and I am waiting for new bulbs to be mailed to me.

- Kept the printer on
- Made sure there was ink for each color

I plan on cutting out several copies of letters to later rent out for events. I will most likely stick to a Sans Serif font. Like you said, if the font does have a curved bottom, I would have to flatten it out. Thanks for the font recommendations!
I do not need a font to have a flat bottom but it could. The poster above mentioned "Refrigerator Deluxe" which is a great font that already has a flat bottom. I noticed TED Talks letters generally had a flat cut for curved letters, so I plan to do something similar if needed.
I am planning on cutting out 3D letters for letters to stand on a stage. I am seeking out suggestions for a font that would work well for standing.
I was thinking about using the Bold or Black version of the following fonts.
- Gotham
- Avenir Next LT Pro
- Proxima Nova
- P22 Underground

Question

Hello, based on the current world-wide pandemic, we may have to shut down our print shop for a long period of time. I am wondering if I can unplug the following printers.
- HP FB750

Will anything bad happen to the printers if I leave them unplug? I am OK with the ink going...
Hi, I am wondering how I can get measurements for an escalator cling. I am mainly concerned how to get the measurement for the curved part at the top and the bottom. What methods can I use to get accurate measurements for curved areas?
Hi, so I think the belt for my HP 260 is broken, it keeps making a loud noise when moving and if I try to print, then the printer will say substrate jam even though there is no substrate jam. My printer is out of warranty, does anyone know anyone that fixes this in the Chicagoland area or is...
Hi, I am wondering if it is normal to see the print passes on the graphic when printing from an HP 750. I am currently printing using Indoor Signage in Caldera. I see a slight overlap between each pass. This is mainly noticeable when printing solid colors. It doesn't matter what substrate I am...
I have recently purchased the XRite i1 Pro 3. I am trying to create a profile and I did not see the device when starting the wizard. Can I use the XRite i1 Pro 3 with Caldera 11.2?
Hi, I am looking for a rigid board that is around 2mm thick, 4' W x 8' H sheet, translucent board.
Currently, I am printing graphics on Sihl 3747 Backlit Film and taping it to .020 PETG that has 3mm Milk Plexi behind it that goes into a 1/8" channel and then is backlit (see attached example of...
Hello, my company uses 3M 40C for almost all temporary branding installs. The graphics are generally up for ~3 days. We sometimes have issues with the vinyl taking off small areas of paint, or wood finish. What are some best practices when installing and removing vinyl?
Currently, we are doing...
Hello, I am having issues loading a roll of fabric on the HP FB750. I try to make sure there is equal distance on both sides of the roll and follow the on-screen instructions but I keep getting creases while the print goes through and the print head then hits the bumps and smears some ink. I...
