    Who is Responsible for Printing Intellectual Property

    Don't know the legal answer but I reckon common sense plays a pretty large roll. If someone sends me an image with a watermark I won't use it. Odd how many people don't even notice those watermarks. If someone has blatantly ripped off someones work & claiming it as theirs I won't use it...

    Funny thing is, he's going to lose twice. Both of his own doing. Once already and again after the recounts he's insisting on.

    Not true. I've run across many pre-press experts that have had zero training (& zero knowledge).

    Another - how did they bind this question

    Casebinding. Check this site. They may even have video close to what you're looking for. They can do all sorts of oddball stuff. Not cheap, but good. Email them and I'm sure they'd give you an answer. The owner is a good guy. sgfteam.ca

    The Celebration

    Seems we're missing the big picture here. Shouldn't stores have prices clearly marked on products in the first place? They've already pretty much destroyed the concept of customer service — why online shopping is so prevalent now. They even have us checking ourselves out and bagging our own...

    what equipment for this type of bind?

    Tape to me. Could be other names for it.

    Colour Perception Test

    I see this post has popped up again. It's been over a year so thought I'd give it another go. Got a zero last time. This time I believe I had to fiddle more with the colours and I got a two. Next year if I score worse I'll know my life is coming to an end. In light of happenings around the...

    AB Dick 9870 - Image/Text Dropout?

    Told him it was chemistry a couple days ago. Maybe he doesn't know how to change them.

    The Celebration

    A few years ago there was a span where quite a few customers wanted a QR Code on their business cards & promo pieces. It seemed to be a case of wanting to be 'on trend'. Monkey see, monkey do. Naturally realtors were all over it. I always wondered who the f__k gave that much of a s__t that they...

    AB Dick 9870 - Image/Text Dropout?

    If the image is OK for a couple thousand and then begins to fade/break down, my guess is 99% old chemistry in the camera. Replace the chemistry and you should be good. Increasing pressure on the blanket is only going to destroy the blanket. I would say that's a problem if your image was...

    Following Guidelines

    This brings to mind WMIS regulations that employees must understand for use around chemicals. It's sole purpose is designed to protect the manufacturer. Regulations pretty much state that since one is constantly handling solvents, gloves (at minimum) should be worn. What they don't say is that...

    Printing Industry Standards/Dealer Ethics/Disclosures

    Hmm. This is a can of worms. As Priceline points out, it gets into legal issues. This isn't the forum for it. I took some law - never finished. Hopefully you have a record of all correspondence & transactions. If all is you describe, I smell an out of court settlement. Sucks, not right, but...

    Printing Industry Standards/Dealer Ethics/Disclosures

    If this were a car, it would be sold as a demonstrator and be discounted. Discounts can be fudged because there's no set price — it's negotiable. Have you been given the full warranty as offered on a new machine? If so I wouldn't sweat it too much . . .however IMHO you should have been given a...

    How to Pantone on colored papers?

    You don't. Farm out the job to a printer with appropriate equipment, match the colour paper to the background ink and adjust the Pantone to CMYK. Otherwise you're on a fools errand. For example; what happens when the customer returns next month and wants a different colour paper. First rule...

    Sick Time Off

    Don't get me started about the requirement of a doctor's note for time off.
