you have no chance to survive, make your time.

its recommended to clean your cap and wiper after a period of use. Mutoh also makes a cleaning solution (the same stuff that's in the cleaning carts you use at fillup) that may also work to get rid of gunk on the wiper. that being said, wiper crud won't effect the ability of your printer to...

wait a week. windows 7 comes out on the 22nd.

The different levels of flexi have various features unlocked, for lack of a better term. Print and Cut has some of its features removed (like some of the advanced multi-up and pathfinding tools) while signpro has every feature unlocked (except routing, that's additional) and flexi also can use...

i'm a fan of AGFA. after installing a few of their M4f machines, i've used their Mv (same as the Mw only with clear varnish instead of white) and found it easy to work with. the only drawback (and this is fairly slight if you're looking at the white ink printer) it does have some adhesion...

I actually typed a paragraph before thinking: explanation would be "disgustingly patronizing" I wouldn't want to do that to you. I mean, getting clarification for problems we have in the sign world isn't what these forums are for, are they? oh, wait. nevermind, stupid question. and it was...

with a name like 413 signs & DESIGNS, you'd think coming up with a logo would be par for the course. we'll be happy to critique your work, but i don't think anyone is surfing the forums to give away work.

there could be a preference to do a "Sheet out" when its done cutting, or OMEGA could be set to cutoff after the job, butthe procedure isn't working right. check your prefs in GSPPlot under device select and see if anything looks out of place. you can also upgrade your 2.5 to the last 2.6...

www.decalgirl.com someone beat you to it. unfortunately, i think they make all their templates themselves. their design group is pretty hardcore.

if the software can output Gcode, you can use it with the Gerber Sabre. other than that, i'd check with the software manufacturer to see if the Sabre is supported by them. Gerber will tell you to use artpath.

Xerox Phasers are great, and if you get a refurb from a business surplus store, you can get a great deal. if you're planning on doing a lot of printing on it, leasing is an awesome option. Xerox and canon make some great printers that also scan and copy. you can get options for flat rate...

remember, in these forums, there are no stupid questions, only stupid people. its ok though. we all have to take our shots, and if you're good enough, you get to dish out a few :)

well, there is a nice B&W image on the link you provided. take that off and live trace it, you got yourself the start of a template. other than that, most of these are 1 offs that you pretty much have to wrap manually (sans template) anyway. used to have friends in the RC car biz, they all...

as far as the postcard, you could have a beam of light shining down on someone with the words "looking for a sign?" at the bottom. put a small blurb on the back about you and add a 10% off a multi-sign job or something, and you'll get the 5% return most postcard campaigns are expected to, or...

ignoring the last post, $.35 sq/ft is a reasonable number. I assume you're trying to use a cost estimation program and its asking your ink cost psf taking the point of his post, you should come up with a baseline figure for your costs based on the expenses you incur running your shop. the cost...

the lowest dpi for the VJs (prior to the 1618) is 540x720 4-pass. its not bad, but not pretty up close.

if there is a driver for the hp9k, it was reverse engineered. 7.0 was the current version when the 9k came out, and that is the only version that will operate the hp9k effectively. you can upgrade ONYX for about 1000 bucks. do it.

unless you are getting one used, look for the 1304, as the 1204 has been discontinued. the the only noticeable difference is the 1204 was 48" wide and the 1304 is 54" wide. that and the stand on the 1304 is a little beefier. good luck!

make sure, whatever you do, get a 32-bit OS. if you are going to keep the machine for a while, get a 64-bit CPU, Mobo, etc, but there are currently little to no drivers (esp USB) for 64-bit architecture. Graphtec is the only one I know who has made 64-bit drivers. also, make sure your new...

in short. yes. most heating elements are expensive and tricky to put in. a 62" one for a seal is well over 400 just for the element, but thats in the US. that being said, if you aren't using heat-sensitive materials, you can use pressure sensitive all day long. if its worth it for you to have...
