  1. Discussion Onyx X22

    Looks like they might have some nice features! Bummer my 3 year contract expired 2 days ago. One thing though. SIMPLIFY.....THE.......PRINT VIDEO......PROCESS o_O That was a little busy.
  2. Onyx Conserve media not conserving media

    I agree. They layout tool is clunky and hasn't been updated in years.
  3. Kala Mistral 1650

    You could try Jim at Advanced Print and Finishing. That is who we bought ours from. https://www.advancedpft.com/laminate
  4. Need a Printing Partner with Flexible Ink for Thermoforming :)

    I have heard the HP Latex R1000 works well for thermoforming. Maybe find someone that has one of those. That being said, I don't think I've seen a wholesaler yet that has one of those machines. Not really a wholesaler preferred machine.
  5. R1000 & Mirrored vinyl

    I’ll have to look into that. Thanks for the input. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. R1000 & Mirrored vinyl

    Don’t have an R1000 but the concept could be similar as our Seikos. They have an eye that reads the material after loading. If it reflects back like chrome could do it might not even be recognizing the material is even there. Try loading it with a white leader taped to the chrome. I don’t think...
  7. Tape that sticks to UV ink?

    Ahh now I see. So this is just to tape it shut. That's tough. So i just went and played with the two types of tape we have. We have 3M 2" packing tape and it kinda sticks to UV ink on cardboard. We also 3" packing tape from Veritiv called Tufflex. I'd say it sticks way better than the 3M...
  8. Onyx Rip wont rip certain file

    Shrink the whole file and save as an .eps like you would do at full size and see what happens. That way you know if its a file size issue or something in the file. Could be a font or picture or a thousand little vector lines in there that it's having trouble processing.
  9. Tape that sticks to UV ink?

    Yep this. Leave glue areas unprinted.
  10. Onyx Conserve media not conserving media

    Maybe post a picture of what you're trying to do. I setup files like this all the time since everything I do is on a flatbed and designed to be printed on sheets and not a roll. Also, Onyx's "Allow Rotate" only works if your resolution is the same both ways "600x600" "720x720" etc. My flatbed...
  11. Review Best Management Software?

    ShopVOX, Corebridge, SquareCoil, Signtracker, Cyrious, Avanti
  12. Designing for Feather Flags

    Signs365 doesn’t do feather flags. I’d recommend WS display as another wholesale only company that specializes in fabric and trade show displays.
  13. Question Adhesion Issues: Digital Media and PVC Substrates

    Is it the router bit pulling up on the sticker while you're routing? If so, you could use a downcut bit or route with the adhesive face down if you're using an upcut bit so as it routes it pulls up against the material.
  14. seiko color painter - paper jam error ??

    It could also be the encoder strip. We've had that cause that issue when there is no apparent "jam."
  15. Any MM that sells Kala Laminators?

    We have a 1650. Great laminator! Jim Tatum from Advanced Print and Finishing sells Kala Laminators. https://www.advancedpft.com/laminate
  16. Need Help Zund rough cuts with laminate on boards

    If this is 3mm PVC try the Z46 blade and slow down to about 10-12 ips. Going too fast on pvc will cause that jagged edge.
  17. Colorado 1650 owners

    That looks like a digital magnified loop photo. I agree the dots are a little odd but what does it look like without the loop. I wouldn't consider the Colorado a super high quality machine like an Epson. It's much more designed for speed and production.
  18. File size limits in Onyx

    I have had this issue as well.
  19. Clear UV ink test print

    Print on black ink or matte black material. It should show up because of the different sheen.
  20. Spot colors

    If your spot color is in top make sure you check over print fill in the attributes panel. Otherwise it will remove anything behind your spot color.
