  1. More fun with font ID's!

    How do you guys find out what the fonts are. Just by doing it for a long time or do you use a "what's the font" or something equivelent.

    That's like asking how do you know what sh** tastes like. You don't know you just know you don't want that sh**!!!
  3. Drying issueson one side

    From what I understand the heater for drying is located on the right hand side of the printer and just heats up the whole unit. We have the same problem with 4 color blacks. We got around the problem by printing just a single color black. I still have the same issue with 3M 3430 EGP when I...

  5. Bowing/ Smiling In Print l25500

    If it's heat and you say it's the curing temp. How can I lower my temps all the way till the print is still wet when it comes out of the machine and I still have the bow. Does anyone print on 3M IJ35C. If so what is your dry and cure temp.

    So plastic razor blades and a heat gun is the best bet?
  8. Electric Vinyl Removers

    Thanks I didn't see the comments. Probably not going to work then for metal blanks that have already been sheeted or messed up.
  9. Electric Vinyl Removers

    Has anybody had any experience using Electric Vinyl Removers. They seem to work really good on car wraps on you tube. But is there any first hand users out there. We make alot of signs using reflectives. Like 3M 3430. Does it work for these types of material. Please let me know what your...

    We also use Flexi and Illustrator to design things. When we print and cut all finished artwork is imported into illustrator on a mac where we use cutting master to create the registration marks and cut lines then is imported back to flexi on the PC production manager for printing. Then is...

    Unfortunately this scares me even more....making it seem like there is no one variable that is messing this up. We have tried lowering curing temp and upping the number of passes but that doesn't work. I use the profiles provided by HP and they don't work. This is all very unnerving. Because...

    I don't understand how your going to be able to see a 2mm bow in the print but here is an attached picture. This is also handicap signs that are currently printing. The stuff I printed out earlier has already gone out to the customer.

    What do mean by rotating the print. Say i have to cut 100 stickers and the print to the registration marks is 50X50. It's not going to help to rotate the print because it will still be in the same spots. What are your heating and curing temps with number of passes that you would use for a...

    I could take a picture and post it but looking at the picture you won't be able to notice anything. say the left side and the right side are at zero. In the middle is at -2. any image you print has this slight bow in it but when you go to cut it. Since the left and right sides are at zero...

    Heres my question though if it was the eye or the encoder strip. I should have irregularities in the print correct? Like blurry lines, overlapping areas, something like that. My printed images look perfect there is just a bow.
  17. Bowing/ Smiling In Print l25500

    We have a HP L25500 Printer. We have had it for about a year. About a month ago we started having issues with it bowing the print. We downloaded the new software which contains a menu for "Substrate Straightness Optimization". Now our issue is with consistency. Today for example... I loaded a...
  18. L25500 and graphtec FC8000 - cutting too "short"

    We measured in mm ours was bowing down so we put a negative mm adjustment and it came out fine. Now though our left to right is shorter than it's supposed to be. Our you having the same issue.
  19. L25500 and graphtec FC8000 - cutting too "short"

    The new firmware is version 4.0.0.4. Our original problem was that the left and right sides of the print would cut fine and the center of the print would cut off. At least that's what we thought was wrong. When we laid a ruler down on the print though and lined up the left and right sides to...
  20. Graphtec FC8000-160 My cut is off.

    The problem was bowing in the print. I talked to HP the new firmware update for the L25500 contains a menu for the control panel that takes care of bowing in the print. This should solve the problem.
