  1. How do you manage your color match

    There is also that Cone app for $3 that does a good job of cross referencing and getting close if you don't need EXACT. Especially if someone wants, "you know, a dark blue-like your shirt"
  2. How do you manage your color match

    We also have pantone color charts printed at the shop. We have found it doesn't really matter what the screen shows, it matters what the printer prints on specific materials. The calendared and cast color charts are different and so we match against what type of material we will be printing on...
  3. Issue with sporadic streaks?

    It had not been off, it ran the fine one then the bad one, and the third right behind. I'm inclined to agree that it was just random clog that cleared itself out on our print. C'est la vie.
  4. Issue with sporadic streaks?

    it’s an RGB R252, G197, B36 converted to CMYK it's C 1.569%, M22.745%, Y92.941%, K 0, but it was run as the RGB.
  5. Issue with sporadic streaks?

    the first pic was the error, the others are on the same print without the weird streaks, and the last pic is the first print of the same "y" that came out just fine. the print we just ran after it came out fine as well... isolated, but I want to know why for future reference.
  6. Issue with sporadic streaks?

    This was printed on Avery Trans (attached photo) on an HP365 and isn’t everywhere, just on certain letters/numbers. There’s no other streaking or hazy lines anywhere else, no other inconsistencies. The print just ahead of this one came through fine. It is, however, only on the top portion of...
  7. Need Help Strange Patterns on Prints

    Confirmed. No other issues printing on that substrate before that last print, and none on others before or since. Isolated incident, exactly when that particular roll lost it's regular tension.
  8. Need Help Strange Patterns on Prints

    We just had this happen with the near-end of a roll of banner material... I can confirm the bad tracking. It wasn't until it was printing that we realized the very end of the roll wasn't secured to the tube when it unwound while feeding, and so we got this:
  9. Tips for keeping crud off prints when laminating?

    I know what you mean, we keep everything super clean, and then when you look there is STILL a hair or something; and never in the cut border or lead, ALWAYS in the print, :rolleyes: its just a random annoyance that happens. I don't think we can do anything more than we are currently... maybe...
  10. Graphtec contour cut issues

    We had this issue when cutting large numbers of bumper stickers for a client on our FC8600-130, we turned the print so that they are cut with the longer side of the image on the vertical y-axis, and this worked for us.
  11. Designing Monument Sign - Difficult Location

    This sounds like a neat project, def want to see the results. what type of monument is it to be? And what are your other restrictions? size at ground level, etc. maybe it can't be taller than 14', but could you expand its base size to get a larger impact/visibility? is this to be seen from the...
  12. Need Help Onyx Postershop 18 - Epson S80600 Losing Connection midprint

    Our HP365 does this occasionally with Flexi. We've still not found an exact cause... it doesn't seem to do it with any noticeable conditions. The worst was about 17' into a 20' banner.
  13. Weird wave in laminate?

    We checked the brake and clutch adjustments and then looked at the rollers themselves. The upper roller was uneven left to right, so we realigned the roller itself and that fixed the issue. Thank you for confirming our suspicions on pressure/tension!
  14. Weird wave in laminate?

    I thought of that because it looks like it pulled to the left or something as it went through, but it was loaded straight and everything was normal... i will double check the settings.
  15. Weird wave in laminate?

    we had a strange issue today with our laminator... this is hard to see but there’s a wave pattern across the entire piece. It’s HP gloss laminate over pvc. Any ideas on why this would happen?
  16. Anyone have any success with latex printable fabric?

    Would we also be able to get some samples? We have been using UltraFlex Canvas and it prints beautifully, but scratches super easy. One print was ruined on the production table while being cut from another print. We also have the vortex mambo S170 and the UltraPoplin D240 and have an HP 365...
  17. Gym Mat Graphics: material? application?

    We have a project for a baseball stadium for a similar thing on their outfield padded fence. Is there a similar product that you would use outdoors?
