For home printing I gave up on inkjets several years ago. Switched to laser and have not looked back. Inkjets is superior for in home photo reproduction but for just standard printing laser wins out hands down.

The first step is to admit you have an addiction.

You also need to figure out a niche' to sell in. With all of the inexpensive vinyl cutters out there anymore, there is a lot of competition. You have to stand out to sell anything. You don't want to be selling what everyone else is selling, or you will be just fighting on who is selling the lowest price. And you will not make any money doing that. I set my prices and I don't care what others are selling at. Or making 6" "stickers" won't keep you in business. It takes more time to do that kind of work then to make big vinyl graphics. You have to find a niche' that works.

solvent printer heads run $750 each (usually 2-6 heads per printer) up to $2600 per head - - inks you will love at $70 each last I bought - 4-6 colors to buy. if you run out of ink it sits not doing cleanings for a couple of days and you buy new heads so always keep spares on hand. if you hated water based you will be entertained with solvent.

CIS kit from cobra ink in the USA. Best thing I did without having to pay for an eco tank epson.

No matter what you do, you have to find a market for it. People gotta want it. And a price that people will pay. As well as you making a profit.

agree and you still need clean graphics when printing I used vector where I could as I could scale up without quality loss - did a lot of printing for united way and golf scrambles and almost always redid the graphics sent.

My thought is, stand back, take a deep breath and get your cutter. You are already talking about getting into a ton of money spent and have never cut anything. Getting everything set up right and cutting is going to be a chore. Never mind contour cutting printed stuff. Just my opinion.

In VinylMaster, you can add a Stroke to either Editable Text OR Text that has been Converted to Curves. ( any Object really ) After adding a Stroke with the 'Outline Module' Weld the Text to the Stroke together for added thickness. As far as Selecting just that Line of Text to add the Stroke to; Depends on whether its been Welded to other Objects or is still separate. Worst Case; You may have to Duplicate the Line and Thicken that one and Delete (Replace ) the Original with it.

First you have to determine if the text is even editable. If so, then selecting the text tool should do it.
