I don’t have a HP and you didn’t mention your RIP but can’t you change the ink density in the profile you like?

Hi I am new to this site and my caps lock broke

When you say “best” you really need to come in with a budget. There’s always gonna be someone telling you to get a SwissQ etc but we really need an idea of volume and budget. The HP R series is relatively mid-high end. You can get great quality a lot cheaper if you are happy to compromise on...

Best advice is to make sure you use the right materials and definitely don’t cheap out. Air egress vinyl is definitely your friend.

No he means the lever when you drop/pull up the white one. Mines looks like this. The one attached to the roll holder should be at the back

If you wanna know feel free to PM, but I think it’s the “some” ink that’s the problem. The company have two R2000’s and run them literally 24/7. Making more money from selling ink than machines lol

What Gino said, there’s an etiquette that needs adhered to. Do you go into KFC and have a wander round the kitchen then ask how they make their chicken? What everything costs to make? Most people don’t want to share that on an open forum their customers can see. Yes, the price drops...

If they’re just two colour you’d probably be better getting into screen printing than digital. Digital is great for personalised signs but if they all say the same stuff get them screened. Naturally there’s also a considerable learning curve there also. Printing coro (not always) tends to be...

As i said, best of both worlds (if you can’t get vector logos) would be to contour cut the clear vinyl with an offset of 3mm or so around the artwork You’ll negate the big white/clear square and it’ll still look contour cut but should still be fairly easy. Though you could also do that with...

Pretty much any design software does this. I’d personally use indesign. But even word can merge. Then you’ll need a CSV (spreadsheet) of all the names. Helpful tip; put everything on a master page that’s on all the invites (pretty much everything aside from the names) and then merge the...

We print on clear all the time. It’s no different to printing on white. You do need to be extra careful when installing though as any bubbles will be more visible VS white vinyl. For crappy raster logos id also suggest just cutting an offset of the logo by about 3mm or so, to make it look like...

I don’t get why they’re so weird about finecut, surely you don’t need it unless you’re driving a mimaki with it, why make it awkward to get?

I had a whole thread about this a while back. I’d load the 9 side and it’d cut fine, the 6 however. No go. I contacted our seller about it and they said it was a “training issue” which sounds like they just didn’t know what they were talking about (yes I’m still bitter). But I contacted onyx...

Had a friend go to another “designer” recently as we were too OTT with COVID stuff and he didn’t want to wait - fair enough. Friend is a personal trainer. Friend then came to us with said logo to Get some tshirts, business cards etc made and all he was given was a jpg. Designer only had...

What rip are you using? We print PDF only in onyx and have never had that problem. Had it in rasterlink all the time though, even if you cropped a PDF to size in acrobat then brought it into RL it’ll still have the uncropped art board size. Made me furious lol. As far as file size goes, a lot...

For 6-12 months I’d probably laminate. Or at least offer a price for either. Honestly printing white is the way to go. You can do it all in one step. if you’re doing it with lam white, if you don’t want to put cut marks on. Then once you’ve printed a roll of reverse labels on clear, then...

I think the spelling mistakes were intentional - id at least assumed that. Probably something along the lines of if you think 5G signals are melting your brain that’s probably also the level of grammar you’re at. The whole thing appears to be poking fun at the 5G nuts and it’s written as if it...

Printing white ink is probably the easiest option if these aren’t just going to be only squares. As mentioned earlier (and this is how we do it) I have to reverse print on clear, cover the cut marks with masking tape, laminate with white vinyl then cut out the masked marks and plot those. A bit...

That one got a disagree. Guess we know who the ginger is

nah with illustrator 24.1 (think it’s that) they made the art board sizes HUGE. Like 57m square huge.
