  1. Need an opinions on this printer

    As opposed to what? I'm genuinely curious. I've run latex for years and what you're saying isn't accurate.
  2. Need Help ONYX Postershop 18 stopped working

    I hope you figure it out. I got a new 560 2 weeks ago and also got the newest Onyx 18. My rip PC was an older one with windows 7 (an old install of windows). I was getting this message but only with EPS files. We reinstalled everything multiple times. After over an hour with tech support I...
  3. Discussion new printers, but which RIP?

    The new version of Onyx that was released last month uses the Adobe Rip engine now across all of their RIPs (previously was only in Thrive). You'll likely see better results for the sorts of issues you are having especially if you are using PDF exclusively. I'm running my 560 with it.
  4. Are they any machines that can help to produce a lot ready-to-use decals?

    Gerber Edge, black on clear. I'd cut to the edge of the letter and leave the holes clear.
  5. Question Wide Format Printer Recommendation

    I don't see how you could justify any purchase based on what you are doing now. You aren't even considering service contracts over 10 years which will add up to probably as much as you paid originally. 10 years is well beyond the useful life of the machine, I'd count on 5-6 years normally.
  6. Need Help How to connect a roland Xc-540 with cat5 crossover cables (I don't have internet) thanks!

    Assuming you have a cross over you need to create your own lan. In the olden days this was something we all had to do, now we have routers and DHCP. You'll need to assign the IP at both the printer and the computer. The IP has to be on the same subnet and range. This video explains the...
  7. Is there a latex respirator anyone can recommend?

    It is more likely what you are printing on. We print on IJ35c mostly on our latex and it really doesn't have a smell in my opinion.
  8. hacked

    I use a fully updated chrome / pixel 2 xl. It still could be a hack, in WordPress I was seeing malware selectively serve ads and scripts to users that weren't admins and weren't on admin ip ranges. They were getting very clever.
  9. hacked

    I don't see this issue on any other site. I agree that it probably is a rogue ad. I haven't seen it for a while now either.
  10. Question What to do with a damaged ai file?

    Postscript based files can be opened in a text editor and viewed, what you'll likely find is the file will abruptly end which means it was in the middle of writing the file to disk when the power failed. Files are written sequentially from start to end. Unfortunately you're not going to be...
  11. 3 Phase Power

    We used a seimens variable frequency drive (vfd). Our electrician explained these were more efficient than older tech converters. So you might look into that.
  12. hacked

    Here is one of the links from my history...
  13. hacked

    There is something up , I've seen it on my phone only. It is either a rogue ad or a page is hacked. These scripts display very conservative so they are hard to find to remove. The ad shows pop up on Android and plays a message I'll screenshot it next time I get it.
  14. HP Announce R Series Flatbed Latex printer

    I don't think it is official information but I've heard it since the show started, so take with a grain of salt. It would only be logical that the heads would remove since it is based on the latex tech. Being able to remove white print heads would be yet another selling point. It is just the...
  15. HP Announce R Series Flatbed Latex printer

    I'm not totally buying the hype at this point. The white seems nice but history has shown us a game changing v1 tech always has teething issues. I'm thinking sort of like what Gerber did with their solara ion, new innovative ink type but it came with lots of weird issues after people started...
  16. HP Latex and sticker printing

    In my opinion it wasn't even a significant issue on the older generations. I have yet to run into something even on my older 26500 that wasn't usable. The machines can do perfectly sellable prints of anything you listed and you'll have happy customers. The newer generations are even better.
  17. New model HP Latex printers for 2018?

    I'm in the same boat. The 365 is a nice machine but is a minor revision of 360 and seems like it would be close to phasing out.
  18. Need to make a new site - advice?

    You could say I've built a few websites. When someone asks me this sort of question I refer them to Wix. You can get something that looks semi professional with little effort. Wordpress used to be my answer, but now it is a minefield of security issues and half baked plugins. You can make...
  19. Plotter Art Clip Art Sale - Discussion, Q & A Thread

    Fred, I'm not sure how familiar you are with selling on Amazon, but I've had some experience selling sign products on there. Amazon has become a haven for counterfeit goods and it is very easy for sellers such as in China to hijack your listings and sell your products illegally. You should...
  20. Looking to buy Chinese UV Flatbed

    Who installs one of these machines? Like 2Ct said you are normally on your own with these machines you buy direct. The quality of service and support should be a huge factor in picking any machine.
