  1. How can I stretch out banner better?

    Agreed.^ I never liked the look of a hem on a banner. IMHO good at maybe 25 feet away but not in a frame!
  2. How can I stretch out banner better?

    My first reaction was to take it down but thats not legal. It looks like they set you up for failure...... You objected to doing it in a way that you knew would not work. If you have a good email trail print them all out and take it to small claims court. It may be a hassle but I surely would...
  3. Critique my website

    Dont feed the troll
  4. A new scam...

    Sad........... I can only assume they are benefiting when you "click here" that verifies your email address?
  5. Write port error

    I would never trust a wireless connection for a large print, Cat 5 cable to standard router is the fix here as some have said above.
  6. Do I need or want Flexi

    Your original post is a bit confusing. Isn't the RasterLink Pro a print and cut rip like Versaworks? Why would you go back to Illustrator? You should be able to send 1 file over to the rip with the main artwork in CMYK or RGB with a single spot color called out for the cut path. *(CutContour)...
  7. Colors look spotty.

    My bet is also on heat settings as many have said above. Be sure your profiles are set to use heat settings from profile. Otherwise it will use what is set on the printer. The pre-heat and the print-heater settings probably need to be tweaked. (if you printer has a pre-heat) The XC540 has a pre...
  8. Just me or do some spot colors print like ****?

    I hear you........ I wanted it to work. Some colors were spot on all the time but the topic here is that some were NOT. IMHO when I tried it I think if the printer is not EXACTLY linearized to the day the chart was printed then its useless. You end up wasting more time than if you just stick...
  9. Just me or do some spot colors print like ****?

    @DesireeM................ I know that Versaworks has a color library. My point is why let Versaworks control your spot colors? Everything needs to be converted. Whether it is VW's little spot chart etc. etc. it all needs to be cmyk numbers to print on the printer. IMHO by selecting a spot...
  10. Just me or do some spot colors print like ****?

    Of course there is conversion............... Every file you send over to Versaworks gets converted to the output profile (.icc) your device is set up to use. The ink set on the printer consist of CMYK with LM & LC taking up the percentage below %50 depending on the profile you are using. The...
  11. Just me or do some spot colors print like ****?

    Why not convert all spots to cmyk before you send it to Versawork? By sending spots over you are relying on VW spot conversions instead of Adobe's which IMHO are pretty good depending on your output profile.
  12. Help with photo printout

    Try this.............. Save the file as a Hi Resolution PDF from Illustrator. Be sure no compression is checked off in the save dialog box. Now open the PDF in Acrobat Pro. Go to Tools> Advanced editing>Touch Up Object tool> Right Click the image. (This is CS4 and Acrobat 9). This should open...
  13. Hey Fellers and Montroy.

    N Glantz happy customer here. Screw fellers and anyone who feels they are above "the code"
  14. Future of the industry?

    Good thread here. :popcorn:
  15. Dreamscape Wall Mural

    We used the Dreamscape non adhesive backed (standard wallpaper fabric) it was a nice sand type matte. It damaged easily. Bottom line we ended up using an old school HP-9000 standard solvent printer and a professional wallpaper installer.
  16. Hey Fellers and Montroy.

    Straying a bit off topic here> if someone with little or no wrap experience actually thinks they can wrap a truck by watching a few videos on youtube they are in for a surprise!:ROFLMAO:
  17. Hey Fellers and Montroy.

    Yes there are still protected trades out there. Getting a license will help. This should help weed out all the bottom feeders............... I really dont know how to use the same technology we all so readily embraced when it started coming out and to actually expect to get paid for things...
  18. Hey Fellers and Montroy.

    Its the WorldWideWeb................. How on earth can you put a halt to the watering down and hacks selling anything, anywhere at any price! IMHO it is happening to just about every industry on the planet. I remember thinking of maybe getting in to web design back in the late 90s. A client...
  19. New Logo for fairly new sign company

    I am a bit of both but like to think of myself as the mechanic. The guy who knows how to get the thought put into something real. When I was doing Tyson fight posters for the Atlantic city casinos by hand in the 80s it was different. It took a week of hard work and patience. Now its how fast can...
  20. Will eco solvent ink cure if you don't heat it?

    Is the chrome material eco solvent compatabile? If so I would use low heat for certain. Having said that I have tried printing on silver foil with eco sol and it just wiped off.
