  1. Digital Print Application Tape

    Hi everyone! I recently purchased my first roll of air egress vinyl (Oracal Orajet 3551RA). This weekend I printed a couple of large door logos, and laminated them with Oracal Oraguard 290. After die cutting the logos and applying transfer tape, I immediately noticed that all of the edges of the...
  2. Cancelling

    Hi. I sent a job that I intended on printing, but unfortunately I had issues with the print due to the machine needing a cleaning. I held down the pause key to cancel it, and the machine said "Cancelling" like always. The problem is it was still trying to cancel... trying... trying... trying...
  3. Working for Someone Else / What Am I Worth?

    I've been in the industry now for a little over 14yrs. now. Like any other small sign shop I've had my fair share of up's and down's. I truly enjoy doing what I've chosen as a career, but unfortunately when I look at the financial-end of things at the end of the year I find in reality I'm hardly...
  4. Slow down!!!

    Hi! I have a 30" Summa T-Series cutter, and I was curious as to how to control the speed of it? I know how to adjust the cutting force and cutting speed of course, but how do you control the rate at which the cutter advances the vinyl back and forth? I'm working on cutting out logos for a box...
  5. Creaing a gradient in Flexi

    Hi, I have an older version of Flexi (it was their top version, but that was 6yrs. ago). I am having alot of trouble getting colors to print accurately, and I know I am missing the boat somewhere with my settings? The current job I'm working on is trying to create a gradient fade from solid...
  6. Trouble Color Matching

    Hey everyone! I'm unfortunately having trouble with color matching on a job I'm currently on? I'll admit, I've never been really good at matching colors with my printer, so I've unfortunately stayed with pretty much a small color palette. I recently lettered a customers trailer with Arlon High...
  7. Too Much Black?

    I had a quick question that I was hoping someone may be able to help me with? Normally when I print black lettering, I apply a contour cut to the letters. On this certain job, the customer wants 3"X5" bumper sticker-style decals, with small black lettering and a white background. I'm not sure if...
  8. Excavator/International Semi Truck Clip Art

    I'm looking for two clip art files: 1). Excavator. I've found some files, but they are either too cartoonish, or of a really old model. I'd like to find a vinyl ready file of a newer excavator if possible? 2). A mid-90's International semi truck (with trailer). I've found some similar...
  9. International Semi Truck Clip Art

    I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find an EPS file of an International semi truck (no cab / with trailer)? I've found some that are close, but not exactly what I'm looking for? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
  10. Construction Equipment Clip Art

    Hello everyone!, I had asked earlier if anyone knew of a good supplier of construction equipment clip art? Unfortunately, I didn't follow up on my post, and now it has been lost into oblivion :) The problem that I have been having is that the clip art I have (or have found) is either equipment...
  11. Need Newer Clip Art

    Hello, I was curious where everyone gets their clip art images from? I have a customer that would like a picture of an excavator incorportated into his logo. My problem is that although I've bought newer clip art software, the equipment images are far from those used in modern day? It is 2007...
