I think there was a firmware update for this. Your rip has to support it too.

We've got a takeup for our Summa and that makes life easy if it's a full roll. It's a bit hard to load but stops the beginning of the job getting creased and crushed.

The 40600 will produce better quality prints but inks are less scratch resistant than latex so you'd need to laminate more jobs.

At a wild guess I'd say anyone who makes signs is doing a LOT of covid signage right now.

We could get acceptable results on our 360s by turning off OMAS, printing the panels in sequence to minimise colour shift and print all panels together in one print run. If you have to reprint a panel all bets are off.

Not for a vinyl cutter. A printer, sure.

Don't forget to wait an hour before reading icc swatches. The shift in cyan is huge until it cures.

The speed it prints at means no later nighters for me any more.

Yep gone from staring at the clock to wondering how we'll get it all done. Mostly covid stuff for businesses returning to work.

Congrats. We have a 60600 which is similar, just 4 colour. They are very low maintenance, just a bit of a swab around the heads and docking station every week or so. There are also some user replaceable bits, filters and such. I think Simon on here has an 80600 so he will have some more...

We've done a few on our Oce flatbed with no issues. 257 ink stuck well and is really flexible + no cracking.

Expensive lessons are the ones you remember best. I'm sure something like this has happened to just about everyone here.

Seems crazy to have to do this to the most expensive cutter in existence but it works. That's a bit of silicon liner stuck to the bottom so it doesn't drag on the vinyl.

Tape a swab next to the knife so the foam bit keeps the vinyl down.

I heard they're bringing one out that prints exact length and the same colours every time. :)

Every supplier here is out of floor graphic laminates and the textured non laminated stuff. Talking to one about alternatives he said they got some regular matte lams rated R9. HP Prime Matte and Avery DOL2100 among others. I wouldn't risk it to be honest. Those films aren't real grippy dry but...

We print on the RIP PC and then use Cutserver to send the cut file to another PC on the network with the Summa connected. This PC runs Summa Cutter Control which has Barcode Server which then cuts the job.

Either. Macs used to have graphic design sewn up but now you can do just as well on Windows.

You'd need to laminate anything off the Epson. I like the look of those Mimaki UV print/cut machines but not sure if they like sitting unused. You would probably need to get a separate cutter once you got the printer busy.

Ducken hell I hate that.
