  1. Latex 360 and 365 cannot print neutral grays

    Thank you and dypinc for your help. I did create profiles from scratch on both machines, pretty much the same result. I have not tried printing with just cmyk. I could try downloading one of the other orafol profiles, I wasn't sure if that would work since the white points can be quite...
  2. Latex 360 and 365 cannot print neutral grays

    Yes. Created new profiles from scratch. Installed new printers in onyx. Very little change resulted. Colors still way off
  3. Latex 360 and 365 cannot print neutral grays

    We have a Latex 360 and 365 printer. It seems since we did a firmware update (whatever the latest one is now) a couple weeks ago, our colors are off. Printing on Orajet 3651 Gloss White. Not too noticeable except grays - they are awful. Very purple tint to them. We run Onyx ProductionHouse...
  4. Ada Compliant Question

    When we purchased our Vision engraver a couple years ago, the trainer said tactile lettering cut on a rotary machine (eased edges) required 1/16" spacing between the lettering, whereas laser cut tactile lettering requires 1/8" spacing. Is that in the ADA code anywhere?
  5. Cyrious Software

    We used Cyrious (first SMS, then Control) for about 15 years before switching to Signvox 4 years ago. Cyrious Control is very powerful, but it is also very expensive. I think we spent about $10k for the software. Monthly support (or "maintenance") is about $125 per month. It was very...
  6. Alternative To Shopvox?

    We converted from Signvox to Shopvox about a year ago. The transition was pretty painful, as would transitioning to any new software program. I agree there are too many clicks, I hope they improve upon that. Over the last year I have seen a lot of good improvements. I don't think I could say...
  7. 6' X 20' Lighted Sign Graphic, Production Ideas.

    Indy Imaging offers a nearly invisible overlap on their backlit prints Invisi-lap — Tiled PSV Overlap Information
  8. Am I crazy, or is there no 64 bit version of Flexi?

    Do you have too many fonts installed? Fonts can slow a system down big time.
  9. Software Help Shop management software

    To provide an update to this response, Shopvox has upgraded their server and the response time is night and day faster now. This is a very positive sign. It makes doing quotes much more enjoyable.
  10. Suggestions HP Latex vs Mutoh

    I would say stick with what you know. If your Mutoh has been working great for 8 years, then get another one. We have a 360 Latex printer and I think it is great. But it's not perfect. No outgassing is it's greatest benefit, but it sounds like you have that figured out already.
  11. Software Help Shop management software

    We used Cyrious SMS / Control for 10+ years. It was very complex (Control) to set up, and usually required paying large "implementation" fees to get it to do what you want. Bottom line for me was that it was very expensive software that was very outdated. I personally love the cloud - it...
  12. Halo Letters

    It sounds like you have never made these kinds of letters before. I would recommend you wholesale them out a few times and study the finished letters closely so you can learn how to do it yourself. I would definitely not recommend using PVC or HDU for backlit lettering. I would be concerned...
  13. Employee Raises?

    As an owner, I have a little different perspective. I would recommend you approach the situation professionally and not show your frustration or anger. I am not excusing what your boss has done, it is very wrong. You should approach him/her and be courteous but direct "I have asked for a...
  14. Should I Buy HP L280 104"?

    I would not recommend buying this machine. I have this exact machine. First of all, you are paying for the extra width. Will you really be printing on wider medias? IMO, the Latex printers excel at printing on adhesive vinyls, but lack in printing on specialty medias and banner material...
  15. Black paint that would adhere to digitally printed mesh banner material?

    Indy imaging sells double sided mesh banner. Just have them print black on back side.
  16. Mimaki UJV55-320

    I have my eye on this machine. I am curious to hear feedback from owners. $80k is what I saw at the ISA show.
  17. Corebridge

    I do not use the proof review feature in Shopvox. IMO it is too cumbersome. We are a really small shop. For most of our projects I am sending a quote along with a proof, so I just attach the proof as an "asset". It is not quite as slick (no customer feedback or approval buttons), but is much...
  18. Trying to match this ADA sign frame/insert

    (Standing on soap box) We run into this a lot. Some business or facility purchased their ADA signs from some far away place that has no interest in the smaller follow up orders. Then we are forced to match their goofy sign. My philosophy is that we match it as best as we can, but it just might...
  19. Guides / Walkthroughs on Routing Printed images with out a Camera alignment System

    Our i-cut system died and is no longer supported, so we are in the same boat. We fit all objects in, say a 48x96 box, then register the router head to the lower left corner of the sheet. It's not perfect, but pretty good for most work. File setup is a pain for lots of pieces. Almost always...
