  1. Need Help Red Color Shifting to Orange in Prints - Taimes T1802 Troubleshooting

    If your printhead is getting close to the end of its life (3/4 or so) it may drop color once it heats up. I have had that issue in the past with a different printer. I would replace your magenta printhead, even if it is not requesting it, even if your colour calibration prints okay.

  3. Need Help mutoh 1304 solid colour problem

    A couple of things...I have a Mutoh which I have pretty much retired. I have always had an issue doing blues with it. There was one time though that when I tried to print the same image on my latex printer, it did the same thing. Figured out it was the stock which Avery has since discontinued. I...
  4. Need Help Install signage on corrugated seacan

    Hi. I've done letters on corrugated metal like that. What I did was measure a 2' flat distance. I then took a piece of premask and followed the curves in that 2' distance, peeled it, measured it, then distorted the artwork accordingly. Installation was fairly easy, one letter at a time, started...

  8. Window Perf vinyl sticking to middle layer

    Just printed and laminated some window perf on a latex printer. Seems there is the backing paper, then a thin piece of plastic (a coating on the paper so the vinyl can peel away from it), then the perforated vinyl. The thin piece of plastic in between the paper and window perf, seems to be...

  10. Regular vinyl on reflective for signs?

    I live in the boonies. When entering small towns, there is a row of signs advertising the local businesses. Not highway signs really, business signs set up on farmland. The other signs at the side of the road look like crap, you cannot see them at all at night because whoever made them did not...

  12. Regular vinyl on reflective for signs?

    How would the client know which way is the best?
  13. Regular vinyl on reflective for signs?

    Thanks. Giving thought to printing it. Just not sure which calendared vinyl is latex printable or if it would even be a good idea to print with latex. Eco-solvent might be better, more translucent? Wondering as well if laminating would hinder the reflectiveness. Should be okay? Thanks.
  14. Regular vinyl on reflective for signs?

    Thanks for your reply. These are for 4x8 highways signs.
  15. Regular vinyl on reflective for signs?

    Well I know, that is why I am asking. Thinking non-reflective spot vinyl would be better, hoping to find someone who has created a sign like this and knows for sure. Thanks.
  16. Regular vinyl on reflective for signs?

    Hi. Kind of new at signs still., wondering about making reflective signs. Was going to put a white reflective background on the dibond. Should I use reflective black and other reflective colors on top or would non-reflective vinyl work since the background is reflective? Thanks in advance.
