Anyone got a resource for good straight edge rulers for hand cutting prints? I use aluminum ones with a safety rail, but hoping to find a good one that is not aluminum. Do stainless steel rulers exist?

I create so much scrap with my printing. Sometimes long strips 15" x 15' and many other variations that I feel would go through the machine ok. However when I have tried it prompts me that it is not on a core. Anyone have any experience doing this. Especially for tests and other smaller prints...

I recently tried a trial version of ONYX. The trial could not find the printer and now my regular version of Flexi can not open port. What is this and how do I fix it. I am running Flexi basic off a PC into a HP 315. Please HELP I am on deadline and shut down till this gets resolved. None of...

I used Flexi Print for my HP 315. I got an order for 80 pics all different sizes and dimensions. Most average about 50-100MB. I put all of them in for a RIP, not happening. Then tried 40 and it hung on 98 for about 30min till I quit it. Then tried 10 and same thing: hung on 98%. Whats going...

Im trying to open multiple files in Flexi. Its a lot almost 2gigs spread over 82 photos. ITs not opening in Flexi, no progress bar, no nothing. Just blank screen..... Am I not doing something I should?

I recently made and printed a file of color samples for a client. I went to print the color they chose eyedropping from the section they liked the most, and the color came out a shade darker. There was black text printed on the color but it seemed way off. A few things to note: The sample I...

I have several museum clients. THe last two shows they ordered printed lettering on phototext (which is 90% cheaper and faster to install than cut lettering which means less profit for me. I've noticed a lot of NYC museums going this route for some shows. ANyone else who does lettering...

I bought a shirt that was made with jetpro. It has the feel of a heat transfer, but WAYYYY more breathable than the latex materials I've tried. Anyone know of a really thin material like Jet pro for latex printing? d

I need core plugs for spoiling my transfer tapes off its dispenser and for spoiling large prints off my take up reel rolls for trimming on table. I attached pic. Don’t mind paying but none of my distributors sell them. Nor can they sell me some.

Can someone explain the differences between dye sub and dye sub transfers? I am confused and looking to get into T-shirts but each one seems to be so limited that maybe it makes sense to get both printers? I like that dye sublimation can print right from regular paper, but you can only use...

Extra ink, extra printheads, extra material but what else should I do or know before a long run like this. I just did a long run and all went well till the printer started printed red and I had no idea why. Or when some of the prints were too small and I had to do them. My friend suggested doing...

I have a HP latex 315. It has been printing reddish on the prints. I think I have figured out that it is the printheads but did not realize there are 2 printheads for each color combo. except light cyan and light magenta. So I swapped out one of each. Was this a bad thing? I'm gonna get the...

I have had a HP Latex 315 for quite about a year. I have had good luck, but I am now starting to notice there's a lot I still need to know about diagnosing problems and general maintenance, profiling, updating, and other things. If anyone reading this knows of or can help me out here I would be...

I have been gettin a reddish/ magenta hue on my prints. I got a deadline and it could not have happened at a worse time. Any ideas? My friend said it looks like a printhead issue. I ran the cleaning, and all diagnostic tests. I upped the optimizer which seemed to make it worse. I am gonna try...

My HP 315 is great, however whenever I get a dark color job I get these greasy spots all over. I have been told this can be fixed by increasing the interpass delay and heat. I've tried these and it seems to help, but it doesn't feel fully cured. Wondering if it may be the ink % is at 120. The...

I posted this in HP forum, but kinda desperate for someone to answer. I am guessing this is a known problem with an easy fix? My HP latex 315 is printing white spots in my images. See pic. Any ideas or help as to why this is happening. I did just replace the optimizer cartdridge. The material I...

Just noticed I'm getting spots in my printing. I did recently replace the optimizer cartdridge. But I ran a print head cleaning. Any ideas why this is happening?

One of my clients of 4 years just asked me to provide a certificate of insurance. They also required me to sign a hold harmless contract and to show that I pay workers comp. This sort of blidnsided me as most of my clients are museums and have never asked for that before because their own...

I have a job where I have to match colors. Two months ago I printed out a full Pantone solid coated swatch book from Illustrator. I labeled each box and kept it for future jobs. Today I took the paint sample matched it to that previously printed swatch book, printed out what I thought was the...

I'm trying to print on static cling. The brand of material is Digijet. I have a HP latex 315. It's giving me weird printing results. I ran a head cleaning and calibration. but it did not improve anything. I'm attaching pictures of the problem here. I suspect I need a better profile. The...
