If I recall correctly, I don't think the Roland can print on coroplast and a few other key substrates. Something to do with the ink not sticking.

Another one? Crazy. We just had a little baby quake on the west coast about 11 days ago. My house didn't really shake but it did make a big crack sound. Scared the crap outta my wife. We found out the next day it was a quake...

Wouldn't it be more fun to use 13oz and tell them that it's breakaway? Or just do this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvL-9sKAcKg

Magic inkjet makes a decent canvas that is better than anything I've tried so far. http://www.magicinkjet.com/home.php

it's ok to stray away from the default settings in queue A. You have to experiment a little to see what your equipment and software are capable of. Yes you can print on coloured vinyl. Adjusting your settings will help.

This thread has some ideas but I don't know if any of them are conclusive. http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=84035

Do they park under a tree by any chance?

I've only had a similar problem once. It was avery A6 silver vinyl printed with eco-sol max ink, unlaminated. Only the graphics on the hood and roof where affected by a brown "stain". The graphics on the side of the car where fine. I tried variouse products hoping the clean the brown but...

I would just pop them and let them sit to make sure it's a sellable product. Otherwise, yeah, reprint. You could have avoided the bubbles by adding a little back tension on the media before starting the machine up again.

Don't know anything about that stuff but I would also be concerned about removability. I recently used Mac Tac Street wrap for a short term campaign. I was happy with the results and I didn't need a pressure washer to remove it.

If taping a banner, I print a .25 pt key line that's 1" in from the edges. After trimming, I flip the banner over and fold it according to the key line. I was using a felt squeegee to help flatten the fold. I recently had to finish a banner at a friends shop and he introduced me to "wallpaper...

I'm guessing the head height is too high.

Recently bought a bag of micro-fibre towels from costco. they're awesome and you can wash and re-use them. They've been very effective when prepping a substrate for vinyl application. They're also pretty good a cleaning up adhesive residue.

Does she know the software? About 12 years ago I did a night course called "desk top publishing". Not sure what they call it now but it was an introductory course to Illustrator, Photoshop and Quark. It was a good stepping stone for me and I eventually took some more advanced courses. I...

I agree, I don't think that's the cause of your problem but i would run a uni test just to rule it out. Plus if you get good results in uni, you can at least keep your printer running while trying to find the real issue. Good luck

I'm diggin the design. Nice and clean. But I'm wondering why you are only doing a partial wrap? The colour of the car is certainly not helping things. In fact, I don't think the car is helping much either. Sorry, I mean no disrespect in regards to the car. It's just not the hottest car...

I think I've got the maxim from these guys. I'll have to double check tomorrow. It has a matt finish and I've had good results with everything I've done so far. Than again, it's the first roll I've ever bought so I really don't have much to compare it to...

Looks great! Thanks for sharing.
