When I went to technical school for graphic design all of our courses were out of Adobe's Classroom in a Book series. I know several instructors at tech schools now and they use a lot of material from Lynda.com. I'm a prepress trainer and I would highly recommend Lynda.com. Anything from...

no this was for a legit dead guy...no props... They wanted "Return to Sender" put on the casket.... Maybe they wanted to make sure the decal didn't fall off and the "package" didn't get lost....

I'm pretty sure the early Egyptians were the first sign makers....they had hieroglyphics and did the first wraps (mummy's) sorry that was my attempt at humor....

I have been getting a lot of weird requests lately... 1. Someone wanted a decal for a coffin. Wanted to know how long it would stick... said they didn't want to take any chances of it falling off...(What? Does it really matter?) 2. Got an order from another customer. Wants a banner to put...

Thats what I was quoted -- free freight and installation... Just gotta get proof of insurance to the bank and sign the papers.... Looking forward to having a new printer...decided to buy a new laminator too!

You need to make a custom profile for the media you are printing on. Your having issues with your 3 color grays and you compensate in your RIP to bring it into balance then it is going to affect all of the other colors in the file.

what do you use hot for? I mainly want to be able to use it to laminate decals and maybe apply transfer tape to decals...

Up to this point in our business we have been subbing out our decals that need lamination. I have decided to purchase a new HP Latex printer and now want a laminator to go with it. I have been skimming through the posts - but not really seeing this question. Should I get a hot or cold...

The two main reasons we are going with Latex. 1. We do a lot of wall decals and customers don't like the solvent smell -- can be marketed as more "eco friendly" 2. We have periods where we might not use the printer for several days and I don't want it gumming up.

I'm purchasing my printer from LexJet.com and from what I see they have a pretty good amount of medias to print on...

Just about ready to purchase an HP Latex printer...have a couple of questions for you... 1. How long can the printer sit idle with no printing before it starts to clog up? Are they any better than solvent printers? 2. Roughly what is the square foot price for ink used? 3. Can you print on t...

SWEET! I am signing paperwork for mine today! Let me know how you like it. I'm a little worried. I have to get it into our studio that is above our garage. Will have to bring up the stand and then carry up the printer I guess. I really need to get a shop that is on ground level....

Right now I have a Mutoh Falcon so anything would be faster than that. I also have several Epson 9900 that we are using for our wall decals, so I think I would me looking to use the HP for most or our outdoor stuff. Found out the 54" model doesn't come with a take up reel, so you have to tack...

We have been in the market for a new outdoor printer for awhile now. Looked seriously at the Epson Sure Color and the Mimaki JV33. Have been talking to my rep about the the HP Latex 310. Seems like a great printer and only $13,000. Seen another post regarding this printer and it seems like...

Got kind of in interesting request from a potential customer. Curious about what medias others would use. Customer is in NY city and runs a business that critiques restaurants. When they feel the restaurant is a good one they want to put a cling in the window that gives it their rating, so that...

Just curios how others register a two color vinyl job together when applying to a vehicle. We use stars for registration marks that are cut in place for each color -- just curious what others do. We install dry on the vehicle. So for this example I would put the black down first and then put the...

Due to our workload I need to purchase another cutter. I currently have a Graphtec FC7000-130. The thing is a work horse and the tracking is awesome. Bought it used...was the best used tool I've ever bought. 95% of the work we do is 24" cut vinyl jobs. The other 5% is an occasional print/cut...

No, thats not what I mean. My roots started off in the offset print world and moved to the digital press world -- where many printers are doing web 2 print. I have many customers who already do their own designs and just want to upload and pay for their banner or sign and in a couple of days...

Is anyone out there taking orders online through an commerce shopping cart? I have been researching different web 2 print solutions where customers could design their own banner and then order it online. Anyone using anything like this? If so...what are you using?

Sounds like you are dealing with metamerism - the shifting color you are speaking of. You could try profiling to G7. G7 is based upon gray balance so if your grays are dialed in tighter you may not see the shift to the red as much. It doesn't take a very big shift in grays to swing to the red...
