  3. Onyx shrinking prints when sending a print/cut file

    Just got off the phone with advantage sign for an issue with our CET, asked about the mimaki scaling cut files. They had me print the same cut file on the CET to see if this was an onyx issue or a mimaki issue. The file printed perfectly fine to the CET so its looking like it may be a driver...
  4. Onyx shrinking prints when sending a print/cut file

    Only during print and cut, if i get rid of the cut layer and send the file as just a print it prints correct and true. We typically only run 54" so we rarely change, i double checked but it is still on 54" media and nothing in the past month has been setup any smaller, so i'm not thinking that...
  5. Onyx shrinking prints when sending a print/cut file

    Mimaki CJV30-130 with oracal 3551 Everything is set at 100% in the job editor, that was the first place i checked once i realized we were having an issue. Media is set to 54.4" on a 54" roll, i would assume the 48" print would be fine and not shrink. When i open the jobs in the media editor...
  6. Onyx shrinking prints when sending a print/cut file

    Ive noticed that when i send files through our onyx thrive software, when a print is setup to cut later our prints are shrinking from the actual size they are designed. I just sent a print that is 48" wide and the output is 46" wide. Any ideas what could be causing this? We are new to onyx...
  7. CET issues all over again - what do I do - am I crazy? Horrible print quality?

    I like it, at times i wish we got the true flatbed instead of the hybrid. My only real gripe is with how fussy the print heads are. Any change in climate and you have to make a bunch of adjustments to get the heads firing nice again. The white head is also a pain in the ***, We print a white...

  9. What is the thickest semi-rigid PVC type material you can cut with the standard vinyl

    we have run the 12mil pvc (medium pvc) from big systems on our roland when we had it, i had it do a double cut pass i don't recall the pressure. Like stated above, it scores it and you can snap it out. Its kind of a pain in the neck, but in a bind it works. We had to do some rush hang tags a...

    afternoon bump.
  12. Back Feeding after completing a print

    We have a CJV30-130, when sending multiple jobs with onyx, lets say i send 3 different jobs, after the first job completes the machine backs up an inch or so. Im ok with the idea of conserving the media, but when we are running long prints and i'm using the take up roll i get over current errors...
  13. CET issues all over again - what do I do - am I crazy? Horrible print quality?

    we have the gen 5 print heads. If you wanted to send us the file i can see how it prints on our end. May not do anything but confirm it is a hardware issue. Let me know.
  14. CET issues all over again - what do I do - am I crazy? Horrible print quality?

    Is this the true flatbed or the hybrid? What print settings are you running when you ran the above image? What material is that printed on? We just got our q500 Hybrid in december and havent had much for issues, we can print fine print down to about 5pt. with no issues.

    Monday morning bump. Anyone?
  16. 651/751 Mint - Source Needed

    Does anyone know of a company that would sell oracal 651 or 751 mint by the yard? Just tried calling fellers and 751 mint is a special order from oracal, 10yard minimum. I have a customer who we are doing a bunch of smaller decals for and i need 1 yard in mint to fill a special order for them...
  17. Which body line to follow on Chevy City Express?

    Just finished a 2015 transit last week. Went over everything with the customer and he decided how he wanted the graphics despite our opinions. He wanted us to follow 1 of the many lines on the transit even though we told him it would look crooked and showed him. He insisted. We collected the...
  18. Considering buying a Flatbed - need advice.

    We just recently bought a CET Q500 Hybrid. After running it the past 2 months i can say, figure out what you plan to do/ want to do and decide hybrid or traditional from that point. I was all about the traditional but we ended up getting the hybrid (bosses choice because of the diversity of...
