  1. PRINTING GREY ISSUES

    Printing a couple of wraps that have some larger areas (18" x 36") of solid grey in the design. When i print them, the grey has a lot of light and dark spots. I am using 3M IJ35c vinyl on a Mutoh 1204 Printer and Flexisign. I don't notice this with any other colors. Also, when I shrink the...
  2. Thoughts on sharing vector wrap files...

    well, it happened, Just saw a wrap on a race car of a (now former) client, that I designed, printed, and installed in the past. . I had sent the file to a local t-shirt/printer (competitor) last season to have apparel made, at no charge to anybody..no questions asked. Guess I learned my...
  3. Thoughts on sharing vector wrap files...

    I design and print a lot of race car wraps as a side business. I get asked to share my design files A LOT (for apparel and iracing) due to the nature of the business, however, I'd like to get some thoughts of others on this subject please. I try to keep my wrap prices to a minimum to help out...
  4. Looking to color match sheet of RED aluminum

    I'm using the RIP out of Flexi, but I use a color profile chart from Roland. I've tried printing a lot of different red squares with different CMYK values and am having no luck. I might get a set of the Pantone color charts to play with, are there any recommendations on them? I see there...
  5. Looking to color match sheet of RED aluminum

    Having all kinds of troubles matching or even coming close to the same shade of RED that matches Wrisco aluminum sheets. Everytime I do a race car wrap for a red dirt late model my wrap looks orange when I put it on. I've tried experimenting with CMYK and mixing myself and test printing and...

  7. Large Banner Questions

    I had a call from a customer this morning about getting a large vertical banner made for outside their business. They want a Breast Cancer Awareness banner for the month of October (last minute decisions I guess). They apparently have some tall poles to hang it from, but they want the banner...
  8. Multishield Galvanized Sheet question

    I have a client needed a large dry erase board to use outdoors. My local sales rep recommended we try a sheet of Multishield Galvanized sheeting. It has a white board for dry erase on one side, and a digital side for printing. My question now is which side is which? One side has clear...

  10. Printing Neon colors

    I've noticed some companies offering printed neon colors for race car wraps. We currently are using Florescent vinyl to overlay on our prints when a customer wants neon colors but would love to get some insight on how to print neon instead. Is there new printer technology or is it possible to...
  11. Printing issue! HELP!

    I've got the same overspray problem going on right now...and my print head is in the low position. I had this happen once before while I was using 3mIJ35 vinyl...and I switched to Ora3651RA and it started printing perfectly so I stayed with it. But I just had a new maintenance station and...
  12. Over Spray/Blurry print on black

    I've got the same thing going right now...I just had dampers and maintenance station replaced and am hoping it isn't related. I've had this happen once before and asked on here and a lot of people told me it was static causing it. I believe it was this time of year also, and I've also noticed...
  13. School/Church Bus Lettering Questions

    I've been inquired about adding contour-cut logos to a freshly painted school bus that has been bought by a church. The logos will be multi-colored printed and be installed on the middle sides of the bus. The challenges are the hundreds of rivits and the molding down the sides. The customer...

  15. My PrismJet 1204 is Printing Black instead of Red???

    hated to do it, but didn't know what else to do and I have a lot of printing to get done...but I ran a set of cleaning cartridges through it, flushed it out, and re-installed my ink cartridges...seems to have done the trick...probably did good to thoroughly clean it all out anyway!
  16. My PrismJet 1204 is Printing Black instead of Red???

    I just ran another clean cycle...and then moved print head out and checked maint. station...it seems to be draining out well....I put some cleaning fluid in it to be sure..and it drained out quick also. Is it possible that somehow if my magenta ran empty that I sucked black into the line some...
  17. My PrismJet 1204 is Printing Black instead of Red???

    I'm thinking I ran out of Magenta ink and the printer didn't tell me, and black ink has somehow gotten in my magenta lines....I put a new magenta cartridge in...and ran some cleaning cycles but it still doesn't seem to be getting magenta into the lines..anybody familiar with this?
  18. My PrismJet 1204 is Printing Black instead of Red???

    I printed some 4' by 8' decals yesterday and everything printed perfectly. I did have to change the Black ink cartridge during print. Today I am trying to do some printing and all the reds are printing out as black. I opened the cover and I can see black ink mixed with my magenta in the...

  20. Substrate Ideas for Hanging Sign

    THANKS EVERYBODY! I called the client and expressed how I am not interested in doing the job as it was done in the past (by somebody else). I would only consider in doing it with proper framing/mounting as I recommend. I told him only other option would be that I could do his new logo on 2...
