haha, I've used it before, and I went back to soapy water instantly.

1-2 drops of soap + spray bottle of water.

I have been in contact with summa about getting one of these machines. They are of course very confident of it's abilities. Now it's time to hear the users side of things. I have samples coming in the mail and have seen what it's capable of. It definitely isn't as pretty as an inkjet, but...

I have had a daige for over 2 years now, with ZERO problems. I don't know why everyone bad mouths them. They are basic, easy to find replacement parts for if you do break it, and they work perfectly. Anyone who cannot use one, I truly question their intelligence.

Aluminum foil? How cheap can these people be. With foil you will do a great job of shorting out any board in there. Also, who says the foill will line up exactly where it needs to be? USE OEM!

You need to get into service mode and mess with the crop mark adjustment. There is no other way to set these printers straight. Print, reload and cut, see how far it is off, adjust the scan and feed. Your dealer should be able to do this, my cutting is now off less than 1/16", even on a...

Let me chime in here and help out, since no one seems to know the differences. I now have both of these printers running side by side. I am running the XC with flexi 8.0. The xc has the added print dryer, which I don't use, since I laminate everything. It also has a take up reel that is...

I use my daige everyday for atleast 2 years now, probably 15+ prints through it a day, with no issues. It takes minimal time to get the hang of it, but you can't beat it for $1800!

Roland provides zero pictures of these machines on their site, so you can do nothing but assume of what they look like except for the frontal view. I know the obvious differences, but wanted to know the differences from a users point of view. Does roland provide this? Obviously not. No...

Wow, great responses.

I have an XC-540 coming this Tuesday, and already have an sc-545 here printing away. What are the main differences between these printers? I will be printing at 720 x 720, 8 pass with Flexi 8 with it. Is the speed that noticeable? I would assume the wear parts (squeegees, mist pads, print...

SP300, hands down. Don't waste your time on the others.

With only a 47" cut width, there is no reason to consider this as an external cutter to a Soljet. Why would roland do this? Just seems dumb.

I thought about this same thing. My question is, the GX-500 is a 50" cutter or so. Will we be able to only cut up to 50 or even 50" wide when we have a 54" printer?

YOu need a sled made out of gator board or 1/8" foam board. I use a daige laminator 2 and it works absolutely perfect. NO idea why people spend $7k+ on a laminator when they are such basic technology!
