    Still running signlab on a win7 pc. I have a new pc on my roland. Thinking of upgrading to a 64 bit signlab version just for speed. Or not. It aint broke, lol
  2. The sound is making me crazy!!!

  3. Flexi not plotting everything, just stops...

    Also check that your sheet/roll length in plotter settings didn't magically reset to something shorter than where it has been forever.
  4. So.............................................................................

    We have been enjoying red leaf mustards from the garden the last week or so. Have beans, watermelon, squash, cucumbers and a lot of sweet corn for the distillery!
  5. Street pole banner disasters?

    Don't do it unless you get a written ok from manufacturer or else you will be on the hook when a good gust brings the pole down for replacement. Not to mention if it hits a car or person on the way down. Had just this happen over 20 years ago on a site that over 80 banners and mounts were...
  6. Has Anyone E V E R Gotten................................................................

    Wet sand it with 3000 grit and move to more coarse if needed. If that doesn't do it than it is deep in the paint. Design a cover or paint it. I have seen some serious wtf's on dump trucks around here the last few years. DOT man pulls them over and then they use whatever they have to mark it...
  7. Vinyl for raw wood outside

    vinyl stencil and paint.
  8. How to make screen printed transfers?

    You need transfer paper and use a vacuum table. Print in reverse. Registration is of course critical for multi color as you will be printing, removing, then curing in between prints. Can be done with spray tac on hard surface, like a t-shirt platen on a press but a pita.
  9. Versaworks & Windows 10

    Go to a computer repair store near you and get an old debugged tower with 7 in it. Dedicate it to printer with no other duties
  10. Roland VG-640 magenta issue

    Many moons ago omg sieko carts had trouble with magenta clogging nozzles. Had to do with the solids. I changed to nazdar carts and it magically cleared up. Ran nazdar inks til that sucker finally reached end of service life. Not saying that is what is happening but just sayin'.
  11. Printer/Cutter vs. Stand-alone Cutter

    I have a roland print cut and a graphtec plotter. The difference in speed, quality of cut and registration for print/cut is obvious. If you have time a print/cut in one is fine, other than decreased cut quality. When you have both and both are running, you're having a good day.
  12. Round sign blank

    Try Georgia Printco. They just did 4-48" medallions for me direct printed.
  13. Roland Colorip

    Looks like you got around it. Was going to suggest plugging the old drive into the optical drive cable if you had one on the pc. Then sometimes you can download from it . That helped me once when a drive was doing it's best to roast. Got lucky.
  14. Best vinyl for university table decals?

    I agree with Gino. Take it from a former high school teacher, there is nothing short of paint that will give any kind of longevity on a school table top.
  15. Need Help 20x40 Fabric banner

    I use Georgia Printco in Valdosta Georgia for big stuff. Talk to James.
  16. Vinyl on outdoor benches

    We recently did changeovers and murals for many local schools when they changed the names to be "politically correct". We were doing reprints before all the schools were complete from little fingers. Between that and the salesman for contractor not knowing how to read a ruler we were pretty busy...
  17. Vinyl on outdoor benches

    Take it from an ex teacher. Kids can destroy an anvil with a rubber mallet. Nope, just nope, lol.
  18. Out of the keg...and right back in. Who woulda thunk?

    Local place has those in men's room with taps on top.
  19. I am so SICK of this problem!!! (lettering not sticking to painted walls)

    I have some oracal 651 on am legion wall. Been there for a few years now. Was post heated. Any more I just do murals on phototex or comparable product just to avoid the problem you are having.
