  1. Question What's the point of translucent black?

    Not sure if it's relevant but we've printed black to clear/translucent to make a tint for windows. If the black comes out too light we'll do a "double strike" print for a deeper tint.
  2. Roland vs Mimaki

    Speed of printing is irrelevant imo. We use two seperate units. The print technician can gang print many different jobs on one media then turn it over to somebody else to plot or hand cut meanwhile he/she can change out the media and continue printing other jobs. Much better workflow. If you're...

  7. Need Help Mimaki cjv150-160 half cut

    As suggested above, on short runs of decals that won't require any pre-mask we make two cuts. Do the die cut first then cut an outer 1/8" or so "Punch Cut/ Half Cut". Then just weed out that 1/8". Decals come out much cleaner i.e. no torn corners and such. MAkes for an easy peel and stick for...
  8. Hp latex 315 or Mimaki cjv150

    Have you any experience with other printers? Mimaki was the easiest I've ever seen. I'll give it to HP though for finally listening to their customers. The newer models are a lot easier to load. Changing media/substrate on the HP360 in a nutshell 1. Release pinch rollers (lever) 2. Roll...

    I'm a cat person. Less clumsy, don't smell as bad, rarely lick you, quiet and easier to maintain. I'd post a pic of our shop cat, Josephine, but she refuses to sign the release form.
  16. What kind of PC do you get for large format files .tiffs and such

    The bigger question is what is classified as a "big" file. Larger than 700MB has some "wrongs" going on.i.e. designed in photoshop at full size (2ft x 30ft) and 300dpi or more. Overkill

  18. OT: The Signs101 Pet Section

    My bias comes from years of being around non responsible pet owners in general. And I love my job here. It's only about a 3 mile commute and "banker hours" 8-5 m-f. I grew up on a hobby farm where we had all kinds of animals. Cows, horses, goats, pigs...Most of our friends or family shared the...
