Just a follow-up.
I figured out how to upgrade 5000 to Post Script version.
Changed bootrom dimm and hard drive and loaded new firmware and it worked great.
It did take a while to figure out how to send firmware to printer. System maintainance will not work when you have an empty hard drive. I...
I don't have a rip yet.
Just got the printer a couple of days ago.
I just thought updating the firmware and changing the bootrom dimm might be all there was to updating printer to ps version.

When I send anything to the printer it shows it is receiving but doesn't print.
It will print demos and I saw it printing from...

Would anyone suggest what to purchase as a starting point for cut art and fonts for vinyl? Starting from scratch and wanting to get the most bang for the buck.
Thanks,

I am considering getting an old Ioline studio 7 plotter and wasn't sure what software would work with it. Any advise or insight would be appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome.
I have found a supplier in Apex that is not too far from me with better prices than I was getting for the coroplast.
I have a homemade cnc router that I occasionally cut signs and name plaques with and a cmc mat cutter that will also cut vinyl and magnet...
Hello
My name is Randy
I am a retired contractor and now run a custom picture frame shop.
I am interested in learning more about the sign business so I will be lurking
and searching and reading for a while before I ask too many questions.
