What to Do with Empty Paper Boxes

When you open a new roll of inkjet paper, please do not put the empty box back with the full ones. This makes it difficult for me to assess our current paper stock. Instead, please put the empty box on top of the black bookcase near the door, under the “Empty Boxes” sign.

Thank you!

Tips for Printing on Adhesive Vinyl

While using the adhesive vinyl paper on the Epson 11880, there are a few things to be mindful of.

  • End of the roll: While you should always be careful of the amount of paper remaining, the vinyl paper is taped very strongly to the core. This causes the printer to jam and ink to smear over the paper if you reach the end mid-print. If you are nearing the end of the roll, please use the printer controls to advance and retract the paper to ensure you have a few feet more than you need.
  • 42″ vs 60″: If you are printing sections of an image to use as panels for a larger installation it is often better to use the 42″ roll size than the 60″. Even though it requires more panels, 42″ is easier to handle while installing.
  • Mounting surfaces: The vinyl we carry can be used on many surfaces, but has some difficulty adhering to matt paint or newly painted walls. If the paint is fresh usually a quick wash with water will removal all the dried-paint dust which reduces the adhesiveness of the vinyl. If the wall’s paint is an especially matt finish, you may have to repaint the mounting area with a glossy or semi-matt paint before installing the vinyl print. As always, do a test by adhering a small print to the wall for a few days to see if there will be any movement.

Construction Update

Monday November 5th

Friday November 2nd

The lab has been reconfigured to operate during the construction. All workstations have been moved to the West wall of the lab, in the print finishing area. For the first 3 days of construction the power to the room has been cut, but workstations and lights have been connected via extension cords. Please watch your step while moving around the lab. The Image Editing station is offline while the power is rerouted. Please use one of the other workstations if you just need to edit your images, I suggest the flatbed scanning station.

There will be some construction noise during the day. If this is a concern we recommend you make your bookings for evenings and weekends. Please let us know if you run into any problems regarding the construction.
