[Digital BW] Re: Silver Rag paper setting

2006-04-22 by john dean

Jim,

Yes, that isn't a problem. I have a good Rototrim cutter. What I was
refering to is the printer needs to have the roll cut straight or it
won't cue up for the next print which would require removing the roll
each time. Just doing one is no problem but I'm about to embark on two
jobs that will keep them coming one after another and I would rather
cut each print as it comes out than end up a long roll to cut apart
later. And even that wouldn't be a problem with Cone's inks but with
Ultrachrome and rag, you'd better check for clogged nozzles every now
and then or your in trouble. 

But, I think this idea of the electric scissors could work once I gain
practice with cutting the straight line. It is a very  good idea.

It would be nice if the paper cutters on the new machines were as good
as the 10K. That one took me 4 years to dull it and I cut everything
with it - canvas, etching board, linen, you name it. Epson wants us to
buy their flimsy over priced media.
