  1. Canon Colorado 1650 Print heads and usage

    I've had my 1650 for a month now, so far 30k sqft printed. Canon is hinting that the print head life is around 250k sq/ft but don't have a definite answer. I'm using 2x as much yellow as any other color so I'm sure those heads will go first I'm still trying to decide on a service plan and...
  2. XR-640 cutting weird, incomplete

    is the blade holder good? do the blades rotate freely?
  3. New monitor, Any Recommendations?

    I could not tell a difference between my 2k Samsung and a newer version that is 4k when both are scaled equally. face probably 3ft away from monitor. Yes 4k more pixels, pixel density etc but I did not see enough of a difference to upgrade
  4. New monitor, Any Recommendations?

    Yes I'm aware of the scaling function but then kinda defeats the purpose of a 4k monitor if you are enlarging everything. After almost 10 years of using 2560 x 1440 changing wont be easy
  5. Illustrator FINALLY increased canvas size by 10x

    One annoying limitation of photoshop that I have to deal with is the size limit of the effects gallery, Don't remember the exact limit but anything around 200" at 150dpi the effects galley becomes unavailable (dpi can be lowered by affects how the effects come out when printed). To get around...
  6. Illustrator FINALLY increased canvas size by 10x

    I need to pay attention to the release notes, would've been nice to know about this a year ago lol. But I've been searching for this for over a year and finally the adobe help page came up
  7. Illustrator FINALLY increased canvas size by 10x

    Ok though about it some more, to me it is 10x bigger. Before my limit was 227" wide, now the limit is 2270". So 10x bigger in wall width or trailer length. But fingers crossed I get something to test out the 100x area increase :)
  8. Illustrator FINALLY increased canvas size by 10x

    Yes correct 100x bigger area. i guess I was thinking in terms of linear width 227 to 2270 instead of the area "Large-sized canvas lets you create multiple artboards with larger dimensions. It provides an increased canvas area of 2270 x 2270 inches, which means you get 100x more working space...
  9. Illustrator FINALLY increased canvas size by 10x

    i almost purchased corel draw on the blackfriday sale to see if it can handle large projects better but last second came accross the adobe update :)
  10. Illustrator FINALLY increased canvas size by 10x

    gone is the 227" (or whatever) canvas size limit in AI v26, now can go 10x bigger to 2270" Found this out by accident and can't believe this is actually true. Just finished my first 1200" mural without scaling and other stupid workarounds the previous limit and all went well. I'm sure others...
  11. BN-20 20" Material

    Compound saw, very easy to cut rolls to any size
  12. New monitor, Any Recommendations?

    I've been using a 32" Samsung 2560 x 1440 since 2014. Recently looked at newer 4k models and decided to stick with the 2560 x 1440 as 4k makes text way too small. Monitors smaller than 32" look so small no idea how people can use smaller monitors
  13. Sheet Layout in Illustrator

    Alt (shift to keep aligned) + drag, then ctr d , takes seconds to fill up a page
  14. Roland VG2 640 vs XR640

    I have 2 rolands SG2 (wait time on VG2 was too long) doing 15k sq/ft per month each for over a year with 0 problems. not the fastest printers, new TR2 inks are a huge upgrade over previous roland inks I was using (versacamm)
  15. Question Roland SG grainy print results. (Help Please)

    What is your print head height at? i had grainy prints once because forgot to lower heads after printing banner. make sure head is low and the settings in the machine show low head too
  16. Wallpaper print

    I got in touch with Disney 10 years ago about licensing. They said 100k to get on a list that they might look at if a licensing spot opens up.
  17. Lifting heavy rolls

    Couple of gym sessions per week help me lift rolls
  18. First time buyer for Large Format Printer

    I have 2 roland SG2 that have been flawless printing 15k sq/ft each per month for over a year and 1 Roland VS that has been printing for 10 years with only 1 print head replacement.
  19. UV Printer & Prints Making us Sick

    My expectations were set by the marketing/sales pitch. I'm expecting the prints to be odor free in 30 minutes or less which is how long it takes my eco solvent prints to be 100% smell free. I'm hoping there is an issue with the machine as there is no way others are putting up with the smell I'm...
  20. UV Printer & Prints Making us Sick

    Smells like the ink, if you smell the ink in the bottle it is extremely smelly and the print smell is similar to the ink smell. Can't describe it other than chemical/not good.
