  1. Doing "Back Cuts" with a friction plotter

    Omega can do it (I've never done it, but they have instructions on their site.) For a friction feed, I think if you make a separate file that matches the dimensions of your layout it could work. If you set the origin manually and run it on the back of the job with good blade settings it should...
  2. DC4SX problem

    Does anyone have instructions for changing the opos sensor? Does anyone know if the opti-clean apparatus needs to be removed in order to remove the side-plate and gain access to the sensor? Thanks!

    There has been a male Cardinal fighting with his own reflection in my office window for several years- banging his beak into my window over and over and over...
  6. Brother-Jet Mini/Small Direct White ink UV Flatbed Printer

    Not sure. The small platforms mentioned above are actually too small for my application, so I am no longer looking at small printers. Going to see a larger one tomorrow; 4'x8' for $85,000.00. I haven't seen the prints from it yet, but I'm certain there will be less clarity than the DCS, and I...
  7. Brother-Jet Mini/Small Direct White ink UV Flatbed Printer

    we have DCS DirectJet 1324 solvent, but I think the UV version is set up similarly. Direct Color Systems builds very solid printers, and the solvent version runs very well. Another consideration is the support that comes with equipment you buy, and DCS has very good support- the can even remote...
  8. Contour-crop cuts off

    Is there a pattern to the mis-alignment? If it starts off bad and is consistent throughout the entire layout, then it could be a software setting. Does it start good and progressively get "off?" If that's the case, watch your media track. If the media doesn't feed squarely then check your pinch...
  9. Reverse cut reflective??

    You could lam with the optically clear dbl face adhesive, but you will still have to take care of the adhesive on the 3M product. Sounds like they want reflective window tint.

  12. Things they don't tell you about UV flatbed printers

    I just looked at the Oce Arizona 318 GL yesterday and was impressed...now I'm a little hesitant after reading this post. The demo was on Falconboard and the results looked good in Quality mode. However, my intention would be 2nd surface on clear acrylic. From what I read above, it's not as easy...

  16. bar code cutting

    To anyone using Summa Bar Code cutting and Wasatch (or any other RIP.) The bar-codes at the beginning of each layout I print via Wasatch have vertical and lines that but upto a horizontal line. The plotters generally have no problem reading them and cutting. However, the barcodes at the back of...
  17. What's the best rip software to use for wide format printing?

    nate Nate, do your barcodes have this gap?
  18. JV33 life span

    Thanks for the insight as well as the service mode instructions. Will power cycling get the machine out of service mode?
  19. What's the best rip software to use for wide format printing?

    that depends on what you're printing; some RIP software is focused more on color and kind of lacking in the finishing dept. (contour cutting decals, automation...) Also, make sure that your current devices and the ones on your wish list are supported. The MOST important aspect IMO is the tech...
