pickle sanchezed. Amazing. Doing this tonight.

Pickles are the best thing on earth next to pickle juice. I can't wait to polish off a jar of dill pickles so I can guzzle the juice... OMGSOGOOD. If you ever can find them, McClure's Pickles will blow your mind. They should be ranked up there with heroine or crack they're so addicting...

I thought the same thing, if it's powerful enough to serve as a RIP that would be great, we could save some valuable space in our printer room by mounting these to the wall above the printers. It would be perfect if they were touchscreens so you could eliminate the need for a keyboard and mouse...

I'd expect Apple to sue HP for infringement, that seems to be what they do... But the Z1 looks promising honestly, I think it's about time someone on the Windows side brought out an iMac competitor, it's sorely needed. And this looks like it'll perform pretty well too, it seems like HP had...

You're in Huber, go to Meyer Plastics on Executive Blvd., they should have banner tape in stock.

If your profiles are dialed in they should come out perfect, they're both well within gamut for a 4-color printer. We've printed quite a lot of stuff for several local WF offices and have never had any color matching issues. Be aware, I don't know how your area is, but around here their...

Red is PMS 200, yellow is PMS 123, from illustrator files directly from their marketing department.

This doesn't work, tried it, the stain bleeds under the vinyl pretty badly. Tried lightly sponging the stain on, same thing. Drybrushing it, same thing...Stain is too thin. I didn't try the spray stain in an aerosol can but I'd suspect the same thing would happen.

just so you know I tried (out of desperation) to make a vinyl mask to burn our logo into wood using a torch just this past weekend. It did not end well. What I ended up doing with decent success was making a vinyl stencil, lightly spraypainting the logo with black spraypaint, then lightly...

I think your thinking is on the right track here. I assume you're talking about the shop that's on Craigslist for $15k, if so that's a killer deal on a JV5 for sure (assuming it's in good working condition and doesn't need heads), but still, it is what it is, and it's probably waay overkill for...

Personally I'd avoid it unless your volume is fairly decent. This is mostly because of maintenance. The JV5 uses full-solvent inks (not mild solvent like the JV3 or JV33), which can cause issues if the machine sits idle for longer periods. Plus, the JV5 has 4 DX5 heads in it, which means it's...

Ironically, I talked to Rao last week about more or less this exact thing, but I didn't know the install board was coming. Specifically I mentioned replacing the job priority number with a "time due" slot would be most helpful for us, since the priority number still leaves a little gray area as...

It's always feast or famine... Congrats on being busy Gary!

Awesome improvements, especially the 2-way communication! I can't wait for you to reconfigure the production board the same way as the install board, the drag-and-drop feature is amazing. Our only real complaint with the program is the lack of a visual way to prioritize jobs on the production...

We just did about 10,000 decals for vending machines on Convex Pitbull, nothing else was sticking right. They stick like a champ.

Yup, exactly. There was a day when the opposite was true, build your file in a vector program by bringing in the raster elements, but you're right, with 64bit operating systems becoming the norm Photoshop 64bit runs circles around 32 bit Illustrator, from a speed standpoint it's significantly...

Yup, if it's printing well it's a steal, go for it. If you're able to see it in person as to see it in operation, take some of YOUR own sample files to print, and make sure you see it run a few test draws. If all nozzles are firing and there is no significant nozzle deflection take the deal and...

I'll just throw my 2cents in here... This year we plan on expanding and doubling our production space, primarily to add additional equipment. One of the things on our list to buy is the RogueRoller. From an application standpoint, yes, a laminator works fine, but it is inefficient, wastes space...

Don't even think of putting a Mimaki with Triangle ink in your house unless you invest another $3k+ on a serious ventilation system, that will render your house uninhabitable. If you're getting Onyx with it, use that, it's a killer RIP. Unfortunately though you can't print direct from an...

This isn't really true. You can end up with fairly large vector-based files when importing raster images into them as well, sometimes much larger than a flattened .tiff or .jpg would be. Nothing wrong with doing the entire design in Photoshop, and honestly in the end it can be more efficient...
