I use a similar one. Pick your key word, something like this: !Bobs901. Then add the first two letters of the site at the beginning and the last 2 letters at the end: So Signs 101 would be: Si!Bobs90101. Pretty easy to remember.

Oracal 3105 for us -if it's being printed

We used to print beer cases for a local craft brewery. The Illustrator files were always massive. They were supplied by an agency and they were some of the most complicated things I have ever worked with. Sometimes people just have more space than you do and don't care about file sizes.

In some cases we use banner since we can get it cheaper than paper.

We have a 550 and have been using INX for years. No issues whatsover and haven't changed any printheads (other than when that guy trashed a few printing acoustic ceiling tiles).

Yes, and then we ask for a deposit up front.

We do the front of Sprinter vans for a large company (50+vehicles). We do vinyl then PPF.

Do you think its a faster install than 1180 or the equivalent? Do you wrap a lot of vehicles?

We never do that, they can find their own installer. We are too busy with our own work.

Always!

Interested to hear how that goes. We have been using 1105 forever, but if there is a more efficient alternative I am in!

We don't do any of that stuff outside onsite. We quote it all as remove, take it back to the shop, install the vinyl here and then reinstall. Luckily its a small town so nothing is more than 30 minutes away.

Yep. I am in Kelowna.

Think of it as an educational moment. Used to deal with designers all day long, I was always willing to tell them what we required and if needed a detailed and far too technical explanation of why. Most people were just fine with that, in many cases it led to closer ties to the customer since...

The problem is that anything other than 3. leaves the possibility of the material buckling entering the heater. It doesn't happen all the time, but often enough that you do not want to take the chance of wasting material, cleaning up the ink and reprinting the job. It has happened with 3M IJ...

It's true that the quality might not be up to snuff of your roll to roll printer so it comes down to what kind of work you do and which printer you get? We had an Oce 480 and a 2260, both 96" so if you want a banner bigger than your 64" roll to roll, no problem. At that shop we didn't do car...

Way back when we still rode dinosaurs to work I was at a publishing company and the art department used proportional scales, someone asked something and I said I just did it in my head or used a calculator. Lots of looks of wtf. Those people were professionals and understood the concept. Lots of...

I use the same formula as Bob. But the 800 asks you to enter the media length when you load it up so it keeps track for you. Just write it on the media edge if you unload part rolls. I assume the 700 is similar?

We have had one for a year. Not a fan. The white is nice but we aren't using it enough to justify the extra cost. It's great for quick vinyl on vehicles, quality is fine and prints fast. But I have had tons of little issues that annoy the crap out of me, can't find the media edge? Try that half...
