Maintenance of Laminators Like all shop equipment, a laminator must be maintained and cared for. Rollers do get out of parallel and pressure needs to be adjusted. Depending on the maker, they should offer you a service contract or some sort of one off service maintenance. Adjustments typically...

Let it Dry When solvent inks are applied to vinyl, they initially swell like a sponge, then over time they dry and the film will shrink a bit. If that shrinkage is on the liner its not to big a deal, but if on a substrate it can cause curling. Solvents also penetrate the vinyl, like a sponge...

Best of Both Worlds Well, at least the Flexi(R) people will allow both to happen. You can subscribe OR you can get a desktop version. Adobe on the other hand is total subscription. I know many seem hesitant to have anything that has a cloud connection. Here's an interesting article...

FlexiSIGN(R) Price editor Depends on your version of Flexi(R). If 10 or earlier, there is a job estimator within the software. Takes time to set up, my personal opinion is that other estimating software might be better. If you have the Flexi CLOUD version, its better and you can test it out...

Print on Laminate Film Laminates, most of them do not have the ink receptive coating, so the ink puddles and does not dry properly. Ink never makes it through the surface. Isn't that what most laminates are for?

Good advise, threeputt threeputt makes a good point. I might add, that most printers are good until you don't do the maintenance. Develop a plan for each day, week, month and year. Something you need to do at each point, and most printers will serve you well. That said...I bought a used Mutoh...
