If you don't use it, you lose it. edit: This post turned out long so here is the summary from the bottom. Onyx try's very hard not lay down a lot of green ink. It is possible that combined with the known issues of green ink, you may be getting erratic behavior. Regarding the epsons: I am...

I would just define them as spot colors and use the lab numbers from CS6 which are as follows: 7678 - L 37 A 26 B -34 7680 - L 28 A 27 B -35

This is ingenious. I love it. I made this one that serves dual duty for applying premask and weeding vinyl. Its much better as a weeding machine than applying premask however.

Actually, I do this for Disney regularly. So you need to modify your statement to include Micky Mouse.

ColorGate without a doubt for the Acuity. ColorGate has the best white ink handling I have ever seen. Additionally, the color management module in ColorGate is far superior to Onyx. Also, it is much easier to keep consistant color through ColorGate since is uses MDS (Media Device Syncronization)...

I am currently using an android but I would prefer the iphone. My company is paying for the Android so I plan to stick with it. My wife has the 4S and I would say that IOS has a huge advantage over Android with Siri and its integration into the IOS apps. It is amazing to watch my wife work with...

If you have profiling built into your rip then all you need is the spectrophotometer. If buying a used 1st generation Eye-One, I would check with your rip manufacturer and see if you need the UV Cut version or not. This all depends on whether your rip's built in profiling can compensate for...

Good luck tracing that!

Has anyone found a service manual for the GS6000? I am looking for one as well.

We were buying 91% IPA at walgreens and using it but it would not work effectively on some substrates like pvc or styrene. The 91% left streaks whereas 99% IPA did not. I liked buying the stuff off the shelf. We would take the bottles and drill a small hole in the top to make an instant squirt...

99% IPA or RapidTac work well for us.

The OP said he wanted to work at scale so I was just providing an example of how the resolution needs to increase if you work at scale.

300 ppi is way too high for typical wide format output. 150 ppi is the norm for wide format inkjet printing. You can get by with less as your viewing distance increases if need be. As far as scale goes, I only use 100% and 10%. 10% scale is the easiest for everyone since you just move the...

As I understand it, yes. G7 closely resembles swop when printed on a swop press and vice versa. G7 calibrations were designed to address the variances in neutrality from press to press. The SWOP specification as I understand it, basically consists of setting the density value for each ink color...

For most digital printing applications, G7 calibrations still require icc profiles for achieve color matching. G7 calibration only addresses the neutrality of the CMY inks in combination. It does not address the neutrality of the black ink or the chroma of the CMY inks. ICC profiles are still...

I only use alumalite if the both faces of the panel are exposed. My understanding is that alumalite is more resistant to wind.

Yet another nice feature Just found another nice feature (for me at least). If you name your art boards, the tiff files you export will be named after the art board. So, if you are doing a vehicle wrap and you name an art board passenger door, the exported tiff file will be named passenger...

I did a job similar to this for when the US released the new $50 bill. Same basic security. I had to unplug the computers from the network and work off of the USB drive. Interestingly, when I opened the file in PhotoShop, I received an error. The PhotoShop dialog said something like "PhotoShop...

Thanks Gino but the blades you have do not look like they will work. I am cutting with vinyl master and setting the force, speed, acceleration and corners with the settings menu on the plotter. I've not had any problems so I've not upgraded the firmware. Interesting about the grinding sound. I...
