Is anybody running the new Digitech workflow software? I have heard great things and looks to be ideal for running jobs with variable data. Have not had time to update yet but wanted to get other users opinions. This company just keeps getting better!

Hello, I run five HP latex printers, two of them are 360 and 365, the other three are 570s. I print long runs, 77-150ft at a time is typical. Starcraft Self-adhesive vinyl is the typical substrate, but only the 360s would print borderless due to the manual right-edge setting, and I only started...

Caldera have a new version out, V14. We are still using V11 and while it's working ok (mostly, aside from the odd crash) they will no longer offer technical support. The upgrade to V14 is crazy expensive through our service agent so we are considering either sticking with V11 for as long as we...
