  1. Anyone else allergic to vinyl?

    A little back story, I've had my own sign business for the last 8 or 9 years, about 3-4 years ago I started having a lot of problems with my hands. The palms of my hands and fingers would peel, crack open, & bleed. I seen several doctors and allergist and couldnt figure out what I was allergic...
  2. Flexi 8.1 and Windows 10 x64 (It works!)

    When the Windows 7 preview was released I played around and was able to get Flexi 8.1 running just fine on it, mostly. It did take some time to get some plotter drivers that worked so I had to use an extra machine ripping. This is about the Windows 10 x64 preview though, but before I get...
  3. Replacing Maintenance Station - Have you?

    I replaced mine with an OEM about 5 years ago, I just replaced the capping station earlier this year. I really wish I would of bought an extra print head back then also, I cant believe the prices they are charging now a days.
  4. batch barcodes

    I am using Flexi 8.1 so it might be a little different, but here goes. Setup your layout how you want it, where the barcode will go, place the number code there with the text tool. With the select tool, select the number, then click Text/Barcode/then select Barcode 39 or extended. You can...

  6. Sooo so urgent. Registration marks move?? I'm going to lose my sh*t

    Is this similar to how you are trying to do it?
  7. Sooo so urgent. Registration marks move?? I'm going to lose my sh*t

    I have never used the registration marks for cut vinyl, I only use it for print/cut vinyl. When layering what I do is use the arrow tool to make a 1"x1" triangle and place 2-4 of them around the graphic. I then copy and paste a second copy of the graphic and remove first layer from the first...
  8. DX5 head source fo JV33 etc

    I have been wondering if these desktop printers print heads would work as a replacement (I actually have a mutoh). When I ordered my new print head 4 years ago, it was around $800, now the price has doubled, that is just crazy.
  9. thats make 2 this month!! wtf?

    Never seen that font before, but if it was me I would take a good head on picture and trace it.
  10. VJ 1204 troubleshooting

    InstantMurals, I would try soaking it some more, have you tried pulling ink with a syringe through the capping station while the print head is parked? Soaking the head for 15 minutes then pulling ink can help better then soaking. Soaking will loosen up any dried ink and pulling it can suck it...
  11. VJ 1204 troubleshooting

    I would play around with different printing profiles. I have around 20 dropped nozles in my nozzle check, printing in graphics 2 is out of the question, but quality 1 has been descent enough. I havnt done a nozzle check in probably 5 months, but my head has been progressively getting worst. I...
  12. Leaving printer on

    This is how we have done our valuejet for the past 3 years.
  13. printer stops printing

    What rip program are you using?
  14. Flexi 10 Coming Soon

    I couldnt agree more, except I throw Corel x4 into the mix also. I use all 3 on a daily basis. I prefer the way Corel handles a number of things compared to flexi, but most of my base design work is still done in Flexi. I think I am going to hold off on upgrading to 10, atleast until I do a...
  15. ValueJet 1604 HELP!

    Are both the black dampers half full? Is there any air in the lines that you can see?
  16. Flexi 10 Coming Soon

    For those that have used Flexi 10, what are your thoughts? I am still debating upgrading from 8.1.
  17. Mutoh V J 1604 dies over flushing sponge

    What is the exact error code you are getting?
  18. An auto serialization question

    I just test it, if you use the barcode tool and create a barcode, then the auto serailization it does serialize the text under all the barcodes, but I cant say for sure if the barcodes change. I have never used the barcode feature my self.
  19. An auto serialization question

    It is very easy, design it exactly how you want it to look a number or word where you want the serial number to be including your contour cut. If you put a contour around all of the text or use a shaped background with a contour, it will be applied automatically. Select all of the design...
  20. Mutoh 1604 pump question

    I believe the pump on the 1604 is the same as on the 1204, if so the pump is a very simple system and taking it apart to clean it will not help. The two connected tubes that go into and out of the pump is one tube that makes a loop in the assembly. The best way to clean them out would be to...
