  1. Heat shrink post wrap?

    There used to be a company called Post Coats that offered this product, but they don't seem to be around anymore. Does anyone know if there is a source out there? This is the alternative to painting posts...just slide the tube over the post and apply heat to shrink it down tight. Any help...
  2. L26500 Inconsistent horizontal banding

    This started abut a week ago with just dark banding. As of today in a single print, I get both light and dark bands. So It's not something we can seem to correct with the manual advance adjustment. I have run through all of the troubleshooting for horizontal banding. All new print heads...
  3. Need Felt Pads For Hp L26500 Carriage Maintenance

    I have a set here, but they don't match whats in the printer at all. Judging from the manual, and photos online, these are supposed to be the right pads. I cannot figure out how these get installed, the pattern is completely different from what we took out of the printer.
  4. Am I crazy, or is there no 64 bit version of Flexi?

    I'm wondering if this is the reason we keep getting errors like "not enough memory to complete copy command" etc... I have 24BG of Ram with a dual Intel Processor (i5 2.66GHz) and Flexi runs like a sloth. The requirements for Flexi 12 recommend 4GB of RAM or higher. But a 32 bit program...
  5. Chiller for laser has gotten VERY loud.

    I'm running a CFT-75 with my 100 watt Epilogue. Last week we noticed is was low on water, so it was filled but it then got obscenely loud. It now sounds like a small engine is running in the laser room. I tried googling the issue but really haven't found anything. It seems to still be...
  6. Avery 2050 matte translucent print problems - ADVICE?

    OK, This is the first time I have ever really had material not take ink properly. I'm printing on 60" rolls on my HP L26500. The center 40 inches or so print PERFECTLY, but the sides are mottled and you can see the ink is not being accepted well by the vinyl as it's beading up. What I did...
  7. WANTED: Vendor for printing 60" Wide tranlucent vinyl for backlit sign.

    Hi, We have the capability to print 60" here but it's just two faces at 60x144" on white translucent. Something I'd rather job out than purchase the vinyl and laminate for the one job. Our 61" laminator is also a little fussy about 60" prints (we run 54" day to day). Can anyone here print...
  8. So, what exactly happened to Arlon?

    We got word last week that Arlon is now out of the game and has ceased production of all color change wrap vinyls. Does anyone here know the scope of what they are dropping product wise? Are they completely done? Will anyone be clearing out product at discount? Chime in if you have any info.

  10. Any alternatives to 3M 94 primer? In a jam and need something ASAP

    Fresh out of the stuff...Is it available anywhere at retail? Anything off the shelf that I may be able to use in it's place? Homebrew recipe? Trying to get a wrap done over the weekend and it just plain requires an adhesion promoter. Any help would be great, Thanks!
  11. Can Flexi tell you the square footage of a shape?

    I believe other programs like Corel can do this. I know you can go into FILE>OB ESTIMATION, but that seems to give you the sqft for the entire file you are working with. It there any way to just get the sqft of a selected shape?
  12. sq/ft of a Jeep Wrangler?

    Anyone else using ShopVox right now? Having this issue? It was working last night. Now today we cannot enter new customers. We enter all of their info, hit save, the save button dims but nothing happens. I'm so happy I brought a pile of work home with me to get some quotes and invoicing...
  16. ShopVox - frustration beyond imagination - no way to list labor as non-taxable.

    So it feels like it's taking forever to set up products etc.. in ShopVox. It's pretty cumbersome on the front end but it did look as though everything was coming together. Well that was until I noticed sales tax was being generated on every component of a product, including labor. Which isn't...
  17. Flexi uncompresses/rerasters images that are imported?

    OK. I specifically made low res JPGs to work with on a Sprinter wrap. The image file is 80MB, but when I import it into flexi, it inflates the FS file size to 1.1GB. Why is Flexi doing this, are there setting to keep it from futzing with the file size of the image I am importing? Files for...

    Any advice? We are having trouble with a color change wrap. The Oracal vinyl will not stay tucked down. It's a 2014 all plastic panels. The vinyl actually doesn't feel tacky at all...in fact it wont really stick to other surface either. My installer just tried a piece on a motorcycle gas...
