On a new install of 2.61 here, I have my local plotter loaded, and the edge FX loaded through the network. But.... in Composer I cannot get it to show foil palettes (option is grayed out). How do I get those to show up so that I can choose the foil colors?

I have a customer looking for cheap historical photo reprints... Anyways, I have a nice roll of Sihl 3686 Trisolv here already. It prints great for all that we've done in the past. However, the customer has requested a "low acid" paper for this project. I know nothing about the acidity of the...

When you are loading material into the GS6000, you can only feed the material "forwards" (as it is a rear loading machine). When you are printing double-sided banners or small pieces,it becomes a hassle when the machine does not allow you to feed the material backwards a bit with the rollers...

Up until the other day I was able to import images in Gerber just fine, now I receive an error while opening them. The image "shows up" in the Composer window, but when I try to print it I receive an error message stating "No shapes found in file" and the image doesn't show up in GSPplot. The...

So, yesterday I finally ran another nozzle check & I too saw the infamous green head issue. (no output from green head) My printer is about 1 1/2 years old, but since it had to be fixed I found my information on the printer & called Epson service. They got a tech in touch with me within 30...

I recently undertook a project for a customer opening a new location, and I have a few questions about how to produce the end product. It is a VERY large sign (to me) at one pan-face panel of 7'x14'. This is a back-lit sign replacing an old face in an existing cabinet on the side of a...

I have a request for some face-mount window graphics for the inside of storefront windows. They are shipping these cross-country as part of their introductory program for a new software product. So, they need to be as simple to install as possible. I have an Epson GS6000, so they would be...

We have an EdgeFX & I are planning on using it to print graphics for a local pizza joint. The rooftop cans are a translucent white material, so I was going to Edge onto 3M Imagecast Clear. My question is - for the best colors, do I use the "trans red" or regular "red" for backlit applications...

I am using Omega 2.51 and have my 3M & Gerber vinyl & foil pallettes loaded, which makes it a snap to know what vinyls/foils are required for a job when it comes back up again. The problem I have is, we also use other manufacturers vinyl (Avery, Oracal, etc) on some jobs, but I have to tell...

I recently transferred to this location & we have a FC7000. I have never operated one before this (we had a Roland) & really don't know where to start as far as calibration, etc. Our dealer quoted me an astronomical number just to come "look at it". Is there anyone in the Cincinnati/NKY...
