  3. Swabbing the Printhead 1204

    In the two years we have had our 1204 I have never cleaned the head directly. I do clean around the head, the silver part in the front and the back, then the Black parts to the left and right of the head. I swab the rubber around maintenance station, the wiper and clean out the "chute" where...
  4. 2 questions please :0)

    Look into the ALIEN SKIN Eye Candy for seamless filters like the chrome effects. I'm still playing around with everything eye candy can do but for $250 it's worth every penny. If you use it correctly you can create some nice finishing touches to your work.
  5. Wrap a RC Truck

    Sorry I started R/C cars when I was 13, built and raced them for 9 years or so, that was my drug or drink of choice. I worked for my hobby and I never kept a kit very long, every few months sell the old and buy a new one. Had a child and it all went on hold, my son got into the hobby after...

  11. Heads up for all auto owners

    We have a somewhat older boat and the marinas warn NEVER to run straight E85 through our engine. Just to be on the safe side we put a additive in the tank everytime we fill up. Mercury and other marine engine manufactures warn that running the E85 without the additive will destroy your engine...

  13. Drop Shadow Effect Not Working Flexi 10

    Sorry, I did not know you were talking about the transparent shadow. DPI and opacity will have a lot to do with that, I normally make the image with the drop shadow much bigger then apply the drop shadow. The scale it back down to the original size, you get a better effect and control of the...
  14. Drop Shadow Effect Not Working Flexi 10

    Try adjusting the thickness of the outline. On real complex designs in flexi it will do the same thing to me.
  15. Plotter/cutter and laminator, wide format

    Ummmm, maybe in a pinch I'll dump the wasted ink. I just ordered 2 sets and will use em' cause I got em'. How ofter do you dump the ink? Do you dump the ink when it tells you waste tank full? The maxi pad thing just creeps me out..... I'll spend the money on the waste tray pads. LOL
  16. Plotter/cutter and laminator, wide format

    I second the 1204 and the Q54. Nice speed on the printer and the cutter is a re-branded graphtec. It was our first eco-sol printer, had a print n cut thermal printer before that. Have had our Valuejet for two years now and with just routine maintenance (clean the wiper, cap station and around...
  17. Looks like hiring time has come.

    Sorry, the point I was trying to make is that they do not want to stick around a sign shop. The ones we interviewed during and after the CC classes have one small piece of the puzzle, and they want a desk job. They want me to teach them things and once they find something better they move on...
  18. 64 bit computer flexi

    what is the compression ratio at when you export or are you saving the image in a flexi format? Is the image created in flexi or are you importing the image from a different program?
  19. Printing Problem - Not printing right

    on the 1204 pressing the right arrow? or the enter button? will let you select between 2 or 3 cleaning methods. Sorry I'm at home and can't remember the correct button.
  20. Looks like hiring time has come.

    We have the community college up the road and when we take applications they all want a "designers job". We tried a few with some illy and PS experience and some with no experience. The ones with a little knowledge of Illy and PS wanted $10-12 per hour to start. They want the experience and...
