  1. Looking for Beta Testers for the CRM/Quoting software I made

    Hey Bryson, welcome to Signs 101! I've signed up with your form, would love to be a beta tester for your app.
  2. Interested in the Epson Resin line, tell me what you love and hate about them.

    Wow, that seems kind of ridiculous.
  3. Need Help CorelDraw to Onyx to HP Latex 800W - 3 layer color white color - gradient issues.

    Welcome to Signs 101. What happens if you turn overprint off on your PMS layer and make sure Spot1 layer is on top? Have you tried using Spot Layer Tool in Onyx? Might not help/achieve what you're looking for, but thought I'd mention it. Here's a cheesy old video about it: Hope that helps...
  4. Interested in the Epson Resin line, tell me what you love and hate about them.

    I don't have any experience with Latex or Resin printers, just wanted to give you a tip for loading multiple files, assuming you are using Onyx. (If not, then you may be correct about not being able to send down multiple jobs at once) In Onyx set your Placement Strategy to "Print Jobs...
  5. Setting up a new business for my Daughter

    Man, you guys are ruthless. Guy's asking a couple of questions regarding software and supplies, not to be lectured on how not to help his family. Newbie comes on here and asks something similar without doing any research on their own, sure let em have it. But a longtime member asking for...
  6. Discussion Convince me not to buy a Colorado...

    Yeah we're definitely not running 5 rolls a day here. I thought the barrier to entry for Colorado was more like 10ish rolls a month? Either way, more machine than we need for now. I wish we had options like you're offering here in Canada, the Epson dealers up here don't know what they're...
  7. Discussion Convince me not to buy a Colorado...

    Thanks Pauly, good to hear you've had a positive experience with yours. That's also good to know about the quality compared to Epson, that's a big factor for us and most of what we do. (small stickers) Knowing how much you guys are spending on filters, I'd probably opt to vent the unit...
  8. Discussion Convince me not to buy a Colorado...

    Thanks Gene, appreciate the feedback. Seems to be a common theme with anyone running these things hard, which is what I thought they were designed to do. Not super encouraging, but good to know nonetheless. Our demands would be quite a bit less than most in this thread, from the sounds of...
  9. Discussion Convince me not to buy a Colorado...

    Thanks guys, appreciate the quick answers. I tinkered with the Epson for a couple of hours this morning and have successfully printed 40' or so...not sure if it's temporary or not. Had 100% of the nozzles missing at first from not capping properly for the last 48 hours but got them all...
  10. Discussion Convince me not to buy a Colorado...

    Long story short, our main printer (Epson S60600) is down, dead in the water, kaput. I've been wasting time harassing techs and anyone I can get a hold of at Grimco (who we bought this thing from 1.5 years ago) as well as any other techs from other local dealers, no one will return my calls or...
  11. A newbie's self-introduction

    Welcome from Canada. Why pretend you're from the Country called "Amercian" ?
  12. Has busy melowed out and if so, does spring time bring sales back up?

    January was insane for us, and Feb is shaping up to be more of the same. Not sure what's happening, and I'm definitely grateful for all the work, but it's been nuts. December-February are traditionally quiet for us, but this year is very different. Added a laser cutter a week ago, which of...
  13. first time with 3mIJ280 and it aint working

    Agreed. Edge curl like that is a common indicator that the prints weren't off-gassed properly. Personally, I don't care what printer/vinyl manufacturers tell you about off-gassing - I'll throw our prints on our off-gas station for 24-48 hours if they are any sort of wrap panels. To the OP...
  14. Need Help Epson S60600 Dead in the water - HELP

    I don't believe that had ever been done. Shame on me for thinking we were keeping up with preventative maintenance. I also received that suggestion from another member (thanks Scott, if you're listening) and I went through the steps of cleaning encoder strip and greasing the rails. That...
  15. Need Help Epson S60600 Dead in the water - HELP

    This thing is only 1.5 years old, has hardly been pushed hard, and has been maintained properly. 23k sqft printed on it. It's now completely dead. Started making a loud "clunk" when head carriage returned to capping station last week, almost like it crashed right into the end of the rail...
  16. Arizona Ink Vacuum System Problem

    As in what does that mean or what it's set at?
  17. Arizona Ink Vacuum System Problem

    We literally JUST went through this with our 318gl last week. Tech replaced the degas filter for yellow head (How they can charge $2500 for a piece of plastic is beyond me) and replaced all secondary ink filters (or whatever those clear disc filters are above heads) and it took care of the...
  18. Small Magnet Sign Material

    Magnum also sells a .015 version of what you're used to using for vehicles (probably .030).
  19. G-PERFORMANCE Price

    Wasn't that only an issue with F performance on the flatbed cutters?
