I used to work for a guy who set up a box with mirrors and slide projector. One end sat the projector the other end had a digital camera. Click next slide click camera to take a snapshot...click next , click camera....
something like that.
I personally am not a big fan of pets in the workplace. I realize if it's also your home it's different but you cannot legally subject employees to it. First, it's a lawsuit waiting to happen. Second, it's a huge safety hazard. Third, it's really hard to talk to customers while the shop dog is...
I have no experience with the Epson series but I will offer some insight on the HP's and other. We purchased an HP 360 (bigger cousin of the HP315) to replace a broken Mimaki. I'm not going to get into the print quality as I've covered this in other posts. Instead I 'll attest to the mechanical...
Problem with most is they work from an unknown center i.e. cutting a circle from any "blank" material. We need something that we can line up to printed vinyl that's applied to magnetic. You can't print a dot at the center but you can print an outer "bleed" circle which can be used to line it up...
Sometimes it has to be a happy medium. Body lines aren't exactly level. As mentioned, tack it into place then step back about 20ft and maybe get another set of eyes on it.
Yes, I was generalizing the term "foamcore". We use several different manufacturers that use different terms. We generally apply our own adhesive as needed.
We've found it best to print to paper, apply an overlaminate (matte), then apply to either pre-adhesive foamcore or apply the adhesive to the foamcore our self. All the vinyls we've used end up trying to shrink up whereby causing the edges to curl up over a period of time.
p.s. our flatbed has...
I would be interested in seeing this approach. I like the sound of it. Maybe you could apply premask to one section and carefully cut the edge where the other lam will be. Then laminate, pull off the premasked area. The repeat again to the opposite. Make sense?
duplicate the image and move off to the side. Do an auto-trace of that image. Delete the raster (image) whereby leaving the vector shapes. In corel I'd "create boundary" illustrator, I'm sure, has the equivalent. Move the contour over your orig image. Maybe create a "cut" layer and move it to...
We found out a few months ago that ProEdge was going away. Also found out that it's patented and that owner of the patent at the time had no plans to let it go. Will probably hold out for $$.
We use CorelDraw/PhotoPaint/Photoshop for all design/cut with FineCut plug in. We use Flexi Print Manager to print only.
Design from various workstations and drop finals for print into the hot folder on the RIP station. Print tech takes it from there to set up media profiles, quantities, etc.
