  1. 3165RA & Contour Cutting

    Shouldn't be a problem but you can always turn the heat off. Helps prevent the glue from melting back into itself so to speak.
  2. Double side paper

    Thanks Merritt. The link makes it sound more like a banner material. Is it actually paper? How thick would you say it is? thanks D
  3. Looking for an artist that can create this backdrop

    I agree with Mosh. The money is never an issue until it's time to collect.
  4. Double side paper

    Bump
  5. Print, or paint board?

    Hey Colin, congrats on getting the 54" machine. See, it's already paying off. I'd just print the whole thing in one go. No need to layer stuff anymore because you can just print it.
  6. Double side paper

    I'm looking for a double sided paper that I can run on my XC-540 with eco sol max inks. Does this even exist? None of my local suppliers have anything like this. Availability in Canada would be a plus.
  7. face mounting to clear plex- looking for a better way!

    I use the same method as you Eye4 color and sometimes I do get bubbles on the leading edge. Simple fix. Once everything is loaded into the laminator, take the material and flip it over the machine. Now take both hands at either end of the vinyl and firmly grab onto the roller. Now roll the...
  8. How many cleanings during a 3'x5' print...VP540?

    First off, I don't think it's the cleaning cycle that you are hearing. It's probably just the capping station moving up and down. The printer is probably stopping because there are other things running on the computer like antivirus software. Make sure all applications are turned off and see...
  9. Contour cut issue with Roland XC-540

    Did you remember to change the blade off-set? Not doing so will lead to undesired results.
  10. Copyright Question

    Ok, stupid question(s) time. This is based on this post as well as some others I've read today. In a case like this, ultimately, who is responsible? The person providing the artwork and paying to have it reproduced OR the person actually producing the artwork? Now I'm not talking about...
  11. Can you contour cut perf?

    Yes you can. You should use a 65º blade so you'll have to change the offset. You'll also want to slow the speed down and adjust the pressure accordingly. 
  12. Free product from Oracal !!!

    I always order 2 rolls at a time so I can use the boxes as skis!
  13. Ordered an HP LX 800

    Are they going to a priest in Africa by any chance?
  14. SEAL Base Laminator Not heating up.

    +1 for heating element or possibly a fuse.
  15. XC-540 Overspray! I Need Help!!!!

    Damn it. I also wanted to mention the head height and I forgot. Oh well, doesn't sound like that's solved your problem either. The warranty is pretty good. If I remember correctly there's 3 different versions. One covers parts, parts and labor or part labor and travel time.... Or something...
  16. Helicopter Wrap

    Haha, luckily for me the only helicopters I've done where for TV and movies. They've got lots of insurance! I did get a call one day after doing my second or third copter. It was all of the big wigs at Warner Bros. on a conference call. Yeah, I was crappin' my pants because I thought I screwed...
  17. XC-540 Overspray! I Need Help!!!!

    Although I don't think this is your issue, have you tried cleaning the encoder strip? It's probably not that, but it doesn't hurt to clean it. Also, have you tried slowing the head speed down to see if that makes any difference. Sorry, I've had my xc540 for 3 years and I rarely have any...
  18. A few recent logos -

    I just ordered both of your books. Looks like I'll be designing stuff like that in no time. HA, yeah right. I did order the books though. Very nice. Hockey Boss is hands down my fav.
  19. Logo Critique

    Only half a spliff?
  20. gromets and banners

    That's a pretty stupid thing to screw up. I would say something and have them fix the problem. Not worth risking a good client. Why don't you find a local printer that can match that blue and have them print the banners for you?
