John Miller replied to Tim Hawkins's discussion Banner Pricing
"I would honestly just sub it out and mark it up. Some things are just not worth chancing messing up and fretting over. Should be able to get it printed by a good wholesale vendor for a few bucks PSF and mark it up 2-3x and add in your artwork…"

John Miller replied to John Miller's discussion Banding in blacks
"Well, I tried the generic glossy calendered vinyl profile on high quality and that's the only way i am able to get a nice non-banding black and a rich one too. Guess jobs that have mostly black i will have to do this way. Thanks all, Much…"

"Just went to 4.8.2  One other thing I did that I forgot was that I changed my queue settings to a generic vinyl and then back to Oracal 3651 when I gave up on removing the profiles."

"John, I tried to do a delete of all my Oracal profiles but stopped because you have to remove all jobs from the queue that have used these profiles and remove them from queue properties. I know I could save them  but a little worried the file…"
