  1. Gerber Edge II color registration issues

    I managed to fix this issue. I selected areas of the red and blue that touched the black, created .005" 'Outlines' for those colors to grow them somewhat and deleted the original selections. I then selected the black areas, applied a .005" 'Outline' and then applied it as an 'Overlap'. The...
  2. envision plotter just won't cut properly anymore :(

    A little late to the thread... This might help. When I bought my Envision, it had sat for some time. It was well used with little maintenance. The guide bushings that the cutter head moves up and down on were filled with old vinyl/paper residue. You couldn't see it but it was there. It...
  3. Gerber Edge II color registration issues

    Thanks guys, I erased all the stuff I originally included about using Choke/Spread because I thought maybe it came down to the vinyl shrinkage. I tried Choke/Spread with two colors first then three. Kinda opened up a can of worms. Odd... When I would pick red/black in 'Select' and then go...
  4. Gerber Edge II color registration issues

    Hi, I've had this equipment for a few years but never got around to printing more than one color. Doing a freebie for a friend. I rarely use this stuff and am willing to admit I'm a total beginner. Graphic is perfect in Omega 5.0. Spot color output to printer is blue, yellow, red then...
  5. Question Value of Edge FX foils?

    I recently purchased a couple boxes of Gerber foils. Ten were FX foils that I have no need for. All have caddies. Wondering what they might be worth so I could put them on Ebay. 1. Burgandy - 39 yrds. 2. Process Yellow - 27 yrds. 3. Process Pro Magenta - 41 yrds. 4. Process Pro Cyan - 14...
  6. Envision boards needed

    I have a Gerber Envision 375 that needs both main and driver boards. Thanks. arc1@wi.rr.com
  7. I hate to beg but...

    Tigershark it is. Excellent! Just what I was looking for. The logo I uploaded was an Illustrator file that I found and then cleaned up. Just needed a few more letters. Thanks very much.
  8. I hate to beg but...

    This one's tough to find. Even if there was something close, I suppose I could work on it because I only need a few letters. Thanks in advance.
  9. Gerber Newbie has a few questions

    Fred, My original post had nothing to do with setting the system up. As to your talking points... We'll skip 1. 2. Followed the instructions, installed plotter and printer through GSPTray and both look like they are installed properly. I can't be positive the USB/Parallel cable that...
  10. Gerber Newbie has a few questions

    Ten days,180 views and no replies... I'm not off to a good start. I managed to fix a couple of the problems with the Envision. I found a source for the wingscrew and took care of that one. A call to Gerber resulted in a tip to oil the crap out of the slides on the cutter head, which...
  11. Gerber Newbie has a few questions

    Hello all, I recently purchased a complete Gerber Edge 2 package that included everything I need to start a sign shop business (minus any experience, talent and a shop to do it from). I bought it extremely cheap thinking of reselling it but now I want to play with it a bit and maybe try to find...
  12. Couple of questions for PC-60 users

    Ha Ha Ha... Ha Ha Ha... Ha Ha Ha... Ha Ha Ha... Ha Ha Ha... Now that that's out of the way, which adjustment is used to fix this? It looks like the feed is coming up short one line and it is overlapping the print by one dots worth, hence the single dark line. I have the service manual and I...
  13. Simulated Wood?

    I'm looking for vinyl in a cherry wood grain. ( or something close ) Anyone know if this is available? Avery has two woods but not cherry. Thanks. Lee
  14. PC-60 Question. (Preppie?? Who's calling me Preppie?...)

    I don't print with it much and the stuff I've done is basically gold and black for guitar headstock decals. I recently ran some color stuff and noticed there is a slight overlap when printing wider than one ribbons worth. It looks like one pixel (or dot) of overlap, which leaves a darker...
  15. Noob needs help in getting a PC-60 to print on single sheets.

    I need a PC-60 expert! So I finally got around to making some guitar headstock decals. Got the Tango Papa paper and this old $50 dinosaur is printing and cutting fine. Well... except for... In Flexi8, I've got a full page of images ready to go on a 8.5x11" page, leaving about a 1/2" margin...

    Any chance someone here has a bad/replaced head for this printer? Or new? Please reply to arc1@wi.rr.com. Thanks.

  18. Vinyl color for tinted glass

    Thanks to all for the input. I will give both a try.
  19. Vinyl color for tinted glass

    Any recommendations for a vinyl that is hard to see on a tinted rear window? I'm looking for something that you won't notice from a 200ft away but is obvious from a few yards. It's got to be very subtle. Currently, I'm thinking Oracal 751 Komatsu grey or Anthracite. I've also heard about...
  20. It's Alive! It's Alive! (my $50 PC-60 - Previous Noob post)

    Wow! It actually cuts and prints. I did notice a row of fine needle like dots in the resin (seen with a magnifying glass) as it printed across a page. I guess it can't be perfect for that price. Is there any way to avoid wasting the first three inches of vinyl at the start of a print job...
