  1. The Royal Wedding

    I vaguely recall something about a war that meant I don't have to care about the monarchy anymore. Plus who wants to watch a wedding when you don't even get free food or cake. :help
  2. he says "sign companies, they are all thieves" ...and what do we say?

    Kind of like the old saying about if your wife asks you if you're cheating, she's cheating. Good point. His site reeks of money quick scheme landing pages. Let him skim the idiots and leave the cream for us.

    Advantage :popcorn:
  4. Hey Betsy from 3M!

    I'm with Merritt though I prefer Oracal anyway. Bottom-cost wrap accessories can really only be leveraged at a high volume, doesn't much impact localized custom design/install--at least not yet. Decent way for 3M to instantly have a field R&D which is a good thing. Somewhat interested in getting...
  5. Critique my Card - Final Round

    Have to agree with the triangles and swoosh honestly. Swooshes should just be avoided in general and the triangles serve little purpose other than to occupy space, which is a bad reason. However I think we're a little late for that particular crit he seems sold on it.
  6. stumped, chronic vacuum leak at cap

    If you take the top off the capping station inside there are little metal .5mm shims, you could take one from the "high" side and move it to the "low" side, then in #adjust>capping set the height .5mm higher overall. Could work? Capping stations ship with 1-3 of those shims on each side, if I...
  7. No IC chips work on Mimaki JV33-160?!

    The metal contact pins can also lose their flex and not make good contact. You should be able to see the scrape marks on a used chip from them.
  8. 3m is offering wraps to endusers

    Hello again Oracal, oh wait, never left you.
  9. he says "sign companies, they are all thieves" ...and what do we say?

    Who cares was some random small time online marketer says on their landing/sales conversion page? :help
  10. Critique my Card - Final Round

    Typography still needs a lot of work. Did you pick Myriad intentionally or was it just what illustrator defaulted to. Kerning is pretty bad in areas and the choice of weights should be reconsidered. The website lines on the back in particular look like afterthoughts.
  11. stumped, chronic vacuum leak at cap

    Looked up the capping height selector, when you're in maintenance mode it's under #adjust>capping
  12. No IC chips work on Mimaki JV33-160?!

    They do expire they can also fail due to a stray charge like any circuit board.
  13. No IC chips work on Mimaki JV33-160?!

    Are you sure the 20 chips you have are for yellow? Chips go bad all the time, it's common. Call your reseller they should send you a bunch more. If all 20 are for yellow and are new, it may be time to replace that ink slot's chip reader, or at least time to check if it's making good contact.

    Should really be using something like Extensis Suitcase to manage fonts
  15. stumped, chronic vacuum leak at cap

    Our Mimaki tech trained me on aligning heads to back right corner. Vinyl shims are a temp solution but it can be properly fixed.
  16. Critique my Card - Round 2

    K.i.s.s.
  17. stumped, chronic vacuum leak at cap

    Chapter 4-2-5 in the JV3 maintenance manual. 4.12 has a bit about adjusting cap height individually, might be useful. There's also a section in Maintenance mode on the machine itself where you can adjust the head height, absorb position, flashing position, wiper position...gotta be something in...
  18. stumped, chronic vacuum leak at cap

    brought capping station to factory height (couldn't really be height because other heads (M and Y) had no leak. but did it for scientific method) This isn't true, because of how the capping station levers up to the suction position you could easily get suction on M/Y/K and not on C. Head might...
  19. New Site Design. Need Feed Back!!

    Looks like you're running on Wordpress? Pay your web devs to set up W3 Total Cache and to set you up with a CloudFlare install (free account is fine, just need to make an account, point it properly, and install the CloudFlare plugin to make Wordpress play nice). If they can't do those things...
