  1. Cutting Issue On Summa S One D160

    so you say. Your reply is contradicted by my pictures and experience. I could care less because my Graphtec is serving me perfectly ever since returning that mistake of a purchase. I just find it peculiar that ever since that waste of time and money there have been others with the exact same...
  2. Cutting Issue On Summa S One D160

    Here is the link to the thread I had going complete with pictures and some great advice on fixes, but nothing suggested worked cause it was a POS lemon. https://www.signs101.com/threads/summa-s2-t75-problem-notches-in-circle-letters-see-pic.142375/
  3. Cutting Issue On Summa S One D160

    I am really sorry to hear this, sorry because the exact same thing happened to me and my brand new SUMMA years ago. I ended up swapping out almost every part, had about 45 hours of customer service logged in and opted to return it, with a nice $1200 restocking fee and shipping. It was the worst...
  4. Letters coming up on my cuts..... first time in years.

    it was the font and old material, cutting fine again now. go figure serif fonts suck!
  5. Letters coming up on my cuts..... first time in years.

    I get them from signwarehouse.com 45 degree ones I don't think they are graphtecs though, but same I always been getting
  6. Letters coming up on my cuts..... first time in years.

    I been cutting vinyl for at least 15 years. About 10 of those on Graphtec's I love them. I currently have an 8600 30 inch that I love to pieces. However recently I have been losing a lot of letters. I have done all the diagnostics that usually fix this common problem. Knife depth, force...
  7. I am new to laminating, I SUUUUCK AT IT , I mean really suck at it. Need a video, tutorial or some veteran hacks to get this right....

    I've been printing for about 5 years, most jobs do not require laminating (temp wall coverings in secure galleries) so I have little experience on my Royal Sovereign cold laminator 54" I have worked out how to feed it without bubbles and wrinkles, how to get a good lam, but the skewing is...
  8. Anyone got a good working profile for Briteline's Rad Graphx material

    I've been trying to make one and adjust the one Briteline provided, but can't get that sweet spot. Material gets too hot and stretches a lot.... I have a HP latex 315 and using onyx most of the time Flexi sometimes.
  9. I am stupid: measuring and layout tiled murals and corners.........

    The way I have been doing it in Onyx is that I slide the tile marker line 2 inches back and forth from the corner measure manually which involves a lot of math. I think this is it though: I will set up entire job with tiles pinpointed to corners then add 2 inches overlap via the onyx RIP...
  10. I am stupid: measuring and layout tiled murals and corners.........

    I am really stupid when it comes to tiling out jobs for walls with corners. My brain just cant think straight when there is a mural that needs to go around a corner or double back. I have learned to leave 2" bleed on all sides and to overlap corners with 2". My problem is the math, I get so...
  11. HP Latex 315--- Best practices before large multiple tile jobs?

    I don't in my preview and other screens it look more beige.
  12. HP Latex 315--- Best practices before large multiple tile jobs?

    I did try that and it printed more grey..... I set up that profile, it was a little less pink, so I replaced the LM / LC and of course now it seems to be fine, however this head was installed 6/24 and had 14 ML. It was reading out of warranty, but the date on the head is t through 6/24. Do...
  13. HP Latex 315--- Best practices before large multiple tile jobs?

    Ok I printed my problematic print and its still pink, I used color correction though. So in my RIP how do I copy that ICC profile? In Flexi I selected the MEDIA ad the .icc is automatically selected to that media too. Is that what you mean by copy? In Onyx it does it all automatically.... I...
  14. HP Latex 315--- Best practices before large multiple tile jobs?

    I started creating a profile, without the spectrometer is the printer flying blind or is it using parts of the profile I cloned just without the LM LC? That question prob makes no sense but bare with me I am so new to this and learning this all solo, no training or previous experience. Thanks...
  15. HP Latex 315--- Best practices before large multiple tile jobs?

    No worries, Thank you so much!!!
  16. HP Latex 315--- Best practices before large multiple tile jobs?

    Sorry but can you walk me through that via a link, video or am I missing it in the manual? I swapped the LM -LC head about a month ago and definitely have not made enough prints to run it out, unless its defective? But tests and printer says its fine.
  17. HP Latex 315--- Best practices before large multiple tile jobs?

    This fucking printer!!!! PINK PINK PINK. I have tried everything. Head swaps, cleanings, calibration force drop nozzle. I am about ready to smash this thing into a million pieces. It will print a few tiles fine and then start spewing out this pink shade over any mid-tone. Do I have a lemon? I...
  18. HP Latex 315--- Best practices before large multiple tile jobs?

    Thank you, do you mean a whole lot of work preparing for a large print or a whole lot of large runs? I bought it 5 years ago. I use it about 1 a week for small stuff (under 500 square ft) and about 1-3x a month for large runs (over 500 square ft.) Not everyday.
  19. HP Latex 315--- Best practices before large multiple tile jobs?

    Thank you, this sounds very promising. However I am ashamed to say I don't think I know how to remove LMLC on a created profile. Can you provide a step by step link? I just don't see that option when I clone a profile and go through the steps. Just a note the 315 does NOT have a color...
  20. HP Latex 315--- Best practices before large multiple tile jobs?

    I got a 315 that can get really cranky and print midtones pink. Always pink and its always a printhead issue either LMLC or YM. I have come to accept that printheads go faster than they are supposed to in my shop, maybe cause it gets hot in the summer and I am not always there to turn on AC. Who...
