As many of you know, I have sold my graphic shop to friends down the road. But I still 'consult' with them and am teaching them all the tricks. Just ran into a serious problem-they had a last minute…Continue

What is the cost of getting a pair of the short 'guide feet' for a Versacamm SP300V, and the poly cutting strip in the groove of the platen? I have to replace these before I ship the machine across…Continue

As many of you know, I have sold my graphic shop to friends down the road. But I still 'consult' with them and am teaching them all the tricks. Just ran into a serious problem-they had a last minute order for just a couple 'black and white' 'coverups' to go on political signs. No matter what they did, it wouldn't print. I even came back to my computer (Mac) and redid it exactly the way I always did. No dice. So back up to their shop, and after 2 hours and a dozen tests-even to reloading the…See More

Roland R. Irish III replied to Wendy's discussion Decal showing from inside of window
"The ONLY way you can have a reverse read decal printed is to have the availability of a white cartridge. Ecosol inks are transparent-and do not have the opacity needed to be read from the outside of the glass. Discount Labels, Stouse, etc. all print…"

Roland R. Irish III replied to Julie Szymanski's discussion Bad Experience, Print, Laminate, Cut, Help Please
"When I have multiple decals of different sizes to do for one job, like your go kart-I do all my artwork as separate images, but then open up a new 'page' (or document) and size that to fit the maximum print area of my vinyl (Sp300V, so I…"

"Stahls sells a teflon material (not the pillow) that you can cut to the size of your platen. Lay your shirt down on the heat press, position your decal, then lay this teflon on TOP of everything and press like normal. You might have to increase temp…"

Roland R. Irish III replied to Diane Hook's discussion Working with Registration Marks
"I tested blade force until I got a clean cut-started at 60 and ended up at 175 for the same Oracal 3165RA and the Oracal (can't remember #) laminate. 'Sometimes' with a new blade I can go to 150 but that's rare."

"I could give a couple classes on application of vinyl to signs...but the easiest way is the 'hinge' method. The largest squeegee I have is only 12", and I rarely use that-I have a bathroom wall squeegee for laying down the vinyl on…"

Thanks Steve...I already have posted a comment and also a question about printing on cloth.
Saw the article about printing on canvas and using stretcher boards to create art-already a project I am working on with my nature photography. Should have found this site years ago!
I will have to pass it on to the roland group on yahoo, but don't know how to do that without you getting invaded by the crapspam that has hit the group there.
