Find a good supplier and build your business before you buy. The embroidery market, much like the printing market has been usurped by internet conglomerates and it will be very hard for you to compete. Adding a new service and hoping the work will come is a field of dreams. Be careful. But in...

Quark treated their customers like excrement, that's one reason they fell from grace.

I have not been able to understand the real market for this machine, and frankly they don't make that market very clear in their collateral material, either. It won't run anything as thick at Coroplast and get this: the inks are water based. So they will fade, fade, fade. What a colossal...

After spending the last 3 and a half years languishing, off-the-beaten path and somewhat buried in a business park, we are moving to a high-traffic location with parking and high visibility. Unbelievably, our rent is only $200 a month more. The move itself is my biggest financial concern, but I...

My company is down to 1/3 in sales from where we were just 5 years ago. I am down to one employee, had to sell my boat, my big Mercedes, and lost my ability to take a couple of vacations every year. We are struggling even though we've been in business for over 20 years. I would not consider it...

Way back in 1992 when Hurricane Andrew hit Homestead, FL. I heard a story of an individual, a graphic designer, who's entire home and worldly possessions were literally blown away. He called Adobe who had his serial numbers on file, took pity on him and sent him new install disks of this lost...

My 2 cents. If you enjoy having an albatross tied around your neck, opt for the Indigo...

That means your lease rate is very high. This may be due to poor credit or simply a lack of business credit. If your credit is good this lease rate if a slap in your face, or more appropriately a Louis Slugger up your bum should you agree to the terms of the lease.

Anyone who does their due dilligence will not buy into the Indigo hype. If you've heard good things about Indigo, you've been talking to the wrong people. Consider the KM BizHub Series.

I think someone might be laying this on kind of thick. I design websites and offer SEO as well. Those customers are every bit as cheap and tight with a dime if not more so.

June and July 2011 have been the worst two months in 10 years worth of financials I have at my fingertips. I think three things are to blame, the economy, the economy and the economy...

Apple has turned their back on Appletalk. All of the devices you mentioned use Appletalk. If your printer's manufacturer does not offer a SnowLeopard driver you are SOL. You have two options: 1) Downgrade to 10.5x 2) If you have another Mac running 10.5x you can go to that machine and set up...

I would run as far away from this industry as humanly possible. With the proceeds from that kind of windfall you could do whatever you wanted or nothing at all. Besides why would you want to partner when you could buy him out, lock, stock and barrell? Thirdly, why would you want to move to...

I would never want to live in Oz. Too many stinging and poisonous insects and animals. I'm SERIOUS!

Doesn't that go without saying? Sheesh...

Good Lord have mercy people. This is standard practice. Even if you are a corporation the leasing company MUST have some where else to turn when you default on your payment. ...and believe me, in this economy, you will.

I once had a million dollars of Heavy Metal running UV coated you-name-it for every printer, broker, DTPer and ad agency within a 500 mile radius. I was a friggin rock star, self- made and self- financed. The advent of desktop inkjet and laser printers, then the likes of 4Over brought my...

Your post is obtuse. You must work for Xerox or you have completely succumbed to their deceitful marketing. The additional money you will spend with Xerox on equipment and clicks could NEVER be parlayed into additional profits. Those marketing cd"s and DVD"s they wave under your nose are...

There are two parts to the toners. There's the part that holds the toner then there's the lower part that has an image drum roller in it. Those can cause smudges when they wear out. I'd start with the black one.

Certain size envelopes can be a challenge. If you're getting smudging, I would look for leaks in the toners, or it might be time for a change out of a drum or transfer belt. I rarely have that problem, but one of these usually corrects it.
