Great video! Was interested in what equipment you use? Namely your printer and your cutter.

[@stickershuttle]

Mimaki CJV printer and Graphtec FC9000 for plotter

[@yourunclesam6780]

what type media you use Sir ?

[@betobeto7903]

just wondering why even open Flexi when all you have to do in illustrator is name the color contourcut to cut?

[@stickershuttle]

Margins, cut pressures, syncing with my graphtec and Mimaki, presets, maximizing print space, step and repeat. I do a lot more than stickers so it’s nice to just use it for everything. My presets allow it to be quicker but I do it manually here to show the process a bit more.

Cool video. I have a Roland BN2-20a. I’m using Flexi to add my cut line. But sometimes the but line is not all the way through. Any tips?

[@stickershuttle]

I’m not familiar with that machine. Try getting a 60 degree blade. And make sure its depth is sticking out the width of a credit card

[@alexherman1987]

Thank you

[@jairomartinez6768]

Hi great video. How does it know how much is costing did you add a price so it can estimate cost

[@stickershuttle]

Flexi actually has a built-in calc, but I also have my own formula for cost per inch of feed.

[@dalebrown2128]

Is the printer ecosolvent?

[@stickershuttle]

Yes!

[@user-cq1ee8so5i]

Hi, how do you calculate the ink consumption? thank you!

[@stickershuttle]

It’s a built in feature on Flexi design and production manager

[@paulschuchardt7215]

Hi what type of vinyl and laminate are you using ?

[@stickershuttle]

We're using General Formulations!

[@inkspotprintinganddesignbu1658]

How do you get sticker business what kind of advertising?

[@stickershuttle]

No advertising, just word of mouth and Instagram.

[@kingk5994]

Don't you normally have to wait for the print to outgas before touching it and laminating it??

[@stickershuttle]

Not with the Mimaki heaters and ss21 ink. It’s insanely cured.

[@alexherman1987]

Thank you

[@kingk5994]

Thanks. Do u think eco solvents puts out a better quality than latex?

[@stickershuttle]

@@kingk5994 I don’t have much experience with latex so I’m not too sure!

[@user-nz4ml6jf8f]

[@da_nk]

Are you using a generic ICC profile?

[@stickershuttle]

Depends on the material. Most of the time just Mimaki or 3M

[@da_nk]

@@stickershuttle so did you create your own ICC profile? Can you show how your profiles are made?

[@stickershuttle]

@@da_nk no you can download them from Mimaki’s website on the download page.
