Yeah, they are going nuts over raised stuff right now. lol These were 5 layers with gloss on the pullback. I can easily do 5 layers in 1 pass which is very subtle with the raised. I have yet to try the 2.5D prints on this yet. Do you do much perforation on labels with raised prints? Something I...

Yes and I did them with pullback printing as well on my UCJV330. A lot of messing around and learning how to do this and finally got some good results. Just need to be able to easily repeat it if I need to do it again.

I don't have the volume or room for a flatbed. I don't see myself doing a lot of this type of print when people find out it's going to be more expensive than just a regular print without having this raised up a bunch. Also this was holographic material which I needed the white for. Maybe I...

No, there is no way to do Clear and White at the same time without pull back. I know I can't do both clear and white at the same time. Tech told me to print my 5 layer files with the color build with marks. Go back and scan the mark and then reset my media with in the scan direction. Then setup...

I tried something similar but when I have my layers composited, they all get the overprint passes. I tried putting 3 layers of clear over my 4 colors and it is barely raised up at all. So I'm not even sure whats happening. I just think I'm missing something major in printing on this that I'm...

Mine seemed to register fine but I had to put tension on the leading edge to keep it down. I was printing on holographic so I need to put white under some spots to block out the holographic material. I'm still learning, I've only had about 6-7 full days of use with the machine so far. This...

Rollers were in the correct spots. It was the first thing I checked. I tried it again and watched it. It printed white+4C layers, pulled back, lifted rollers and started printing. it's when it advanced the media it lifted up slightly. Unless I put a little tension on the leading edge of the...

Been trying to experiment with layered printing and I wanted to try a print with white and clear. However it cannot print white and clear in the same pass so it has to retract the print (after printing white & 4 color) and then do the clear. What's happening is the original print is fine then...

After seeing the video I don't think there is any question he should be let go. That is not acceptable in any way for an employee to do that. Even if he was honest about it, just the fact he didn't own up to it just makes it even more solid of a case.

Yeah I totally understand this. I think I don't like this way because of how Graphtec reads the files. Generally I'll setup my file, say a 2" circle sticker. I save an AI file with the art and cut layers and then place that into a stepped out sheets (says sheets of 25up) then I'll repeat those...

I have not tried that function. I want to be able to print a layout on my UCJV and then cut on my graphtec, but in order to do that I need to use cut master and apply Graphtec reg marks. I wasn't clear enough in my OP.

Now I've got my UCJV running and have started to use it. I forgot how incredibly slow print and cut machines are with cutting. (I printed small labels with a perforation line, print area was approx 48" x 23") Took 15mins to print and 25mins to cut. Not very ideal for production in the cutting...

I had to pay for the upgrade to 22.5, but when the new version gets released this summer I'll be eligible for that because I got 1 year of advantage with the upgrade purchase. You may check with them as they sometimes run deals around print trade shows. I was able to get a 15% discount because I...

Hey everyone, I'm in a pinch and need someone to help me with some UV printed stickers with spot gloss. Size is about 2.32" x 2.5" and they are a custom cut shape. Would just need them cut to shape or the backer can be square. (I was going to print them here on my UV machine, but I'm having...

Ok. Guess I have to do some research on this a bit more. Any companies you recommend looking at? I see SightLine mentioned Eaton and I'm guessing APC make some more industrial UPS systems.

I was just looking for something that will last for about 5-10mins so it gives me time to stop prints and shut them down. I'm just a small guy here in a basement. That's more of what I'm thinking of.

Hey everyone, I was wondering who uses a UPS/surge protection on their printers, cutters, etc.. And if so what are you using for protection on these expensive items? We had a bad storm roll through last week and I was typing on my keyboard and got a shock through it from the lightning...

330 is installed now after the ink mix-up was fixed. However it only ended up leaving me with about 2.5hrs for him to show me how to operate the machine, which is very little. I'm pretty much on my own with the manuals for figuring this out and unless I can get someone else here to help speed up...

I don't know about the 2 liter ink thing. The bottles are 1 liter and that's all I have the option for. Yeah the 330 series they have switched for a felt roll for the wiper portion, similar kind of system that Epson has for their SureColor printers. The rolls look small so I'm curious to see how...
