    Flexi 8

    Plug the printer in and when the screen pops up asking to install the driver do it manually and point it to the folder where the files unzipped. ( I am assuming you are running windows.) If you have already plugged it in you will have to go into the device manager and uninstall the driver then reinstall the correct one from the folder the ones you unzipped.

    Flexi 8

    I only thought that 500 came in a 24" and 42" like the 800 I have....... I have the zip file with all the drivers or both... I think it is to large to put here... Let me track them down and I will load them to my dropbox and post that link... Actually here is the link from the HP site.... It is VERY VERY important you select the EXACT model you have as you see there are multiple options... There should be a tag on your printer that gives the exact model if not it will give you the HP part number and you can cross that..... http://h20000.www2.h...dSeriesId=25301 Another point on the contour cutting is make sure you load the image the proper way into your cutter... There are arrows that point which way it needs to be loaded.... also try using 4 Registration marks instead of the 2... I think I remember reading somewhere some people were having issues with it not completing cuts and that solved it for them.

    Flexi 8

    Yes you can Node edit.... 5th tool down on far left... As far as printing if you are using rip and print I also have had issues with it printing darker then it should on some printers. If I Rip and Print to my Epson 1100 it is fine, However when sending via this method to be HP Designjet 800 it is very dark... I looked over the net looking for a solution and was unable to find one.... When you Rip and Print the Production manager comes up on the third tab over there are options for media type and color correction you could try and play with those and see what happens.... Back to the node editing I have found it is easier for me to still use Inkscape for that as it is easier for since I am more familiar with it.. As far as the contour cut goes, What cutter do you have? How is it connected? I had many many many many issues with mine trying to contour cut via USB.. It would never actually cut around the image but through it and way around it.. I went to a Serial connection and it has been PERFECT ever since... Even on very complex contours where I am cutting around the outside and also parts from within the image without any issues....

    PRIME looks like Microgramma Bold Extended... It's available in SB...... My guess the script part is heavily customized....

    eps files

    I would suggest Irfan view to you also.... You can use Irfan view thumbnails and it will show you all the .eps files in the folder you select.....

    Looks like a stretched Serpentine Bold....

    Heat Press

    I know when I ran the maintenance crew I had a shirt that said "You can tell people there are 102 Zillion stars in space and they will believe you but tell them the paint is wet and they have to touch it to see."

    eps files

    +1 on Irfan view. You can edit the nodes for the .EPS images with sign blazer or inkscape.

    Full version Signblazer Download (all cutters)

    The dongle key is a USB device that looks similar to a USB flash drive... There is a crack that accompanies the signblazer download to eliminate the Nag screens at start up... It is posted by user Cut Me..

    I don't know how ya'll do things on that side of Lake Michigan but on my side we just don't touch things that are hot.........

    oracal question

    Well if its in a series that bump and rub go with the cheapest you can get... I use Greenstar on all my bombers and street stock.... Modifieds around here some of these guys have $20,000 in just an engine so there is NO bumping or rubbing so I use better material on those since they should look bright and flashy.

    Clam Shell -vs- Swing Arm

    I like my swing arm better. It's easier to load shirts and get the transfer where you want it. Also you aren't working with your hands that close to the heated surface of the press.

    inkscape vector help

    I would guess he found a larger image of just the Blue Angels and traced and cleaned it in Inkscape.... If you do a google image search you will find a few images of the writing that are easier to work with.
  25. Just for future reference TCP\IP settings are Internet Protocol settings.. IE if you had your cutter set up on a local network that is when you would have to attach the address there.. Glad you guys got it figured out!
