  1. Switching from Graphtec to summa... what do I need to know

    For simple cutting you just make a compatible file and open it in Winplot and cut your job.
  2. Very frustrated with cutting. hp 315

    They don't look too bad. Anything printed on the latex and cut on the Summa I never expect total accuracy. I'd work out a way to add more bleed and call it a day.
  3. Looking to sell - HP Designjet L25500 - Any Ideas?

    We sold ours as soon as they announced end of life. You probably have left your run a bit late for selling it. Someone may take it off your hands for free though.
  4. PSD onyx

    OP was wanting to print thru Onyx. The rip flattens the file anyway.
  5. PSD onyx

    If it's already a bitmap saving as PDF isn't going to add anything.
  6. Question Can the life of the extended gamut 80600 and RF-640 inks be extended by uv/hvls protectives?

    Just use cmyk and you'll be good. In which case if you're printing signs better just get a 60600
  7. PSD onyx

    Flatten and save as a tiff.
  8. Need Help General Misery with Backlit

    HP latex will never print consistent lengths. If we have to print on our 360s and have an exact length we print longer using the scale adjust setting in onyx, then make sure we cut the job on the Zund at 1:1 which reads the marks then will cut exactly the size in the file.
  9. Question What Printer would you stake your business on?

    It's getting installed next Friday so stand by for the review.
  10. Question What Printer would you stake your business on?

    We're more about doing small to medium size runs quickly so the Colorado is looking like the best fit at the moment. Quick and easy media changeovers and medium fast print speeds are where it's at for us.
  11. Opinion Epson Surecolor 40600 vs Roland TrueVis SG

    You can't cut full bleed eco sol stickers right away anyway so fail to see how print/cut machines are more convenient. What do you do.. leave the prints in the machine for 24 hours?
  12. COLEX or ESKO

    Take both for a test drive and see which is the easiest to use.
  13. Curling Issue with laminated vinyl post-plotting

    Try and keep the tension the same on the laminate and the vinyl.
  14. Calculating print speeds?

    The Epson website has print speeds for these printers https://www.epson.com.au/Prographics/products/largeformat/DisplaySpecs.asp?id=SureColor-S60600 Max Speed 95.3m²/hr (360 x 720dpi 1 pass) Billboard Production 52.3m²/hr (720 x 720dpi 2 pass) Banner Production 29.4m²/hr (720 x 720dpi 4 pass)...
  15. What Do You Use? Where To Buy?

    If you're talking about the Epson S60/80 you only have to wait about 2 minutes, tape to the takeup reel, pull the dancer bar forward and it's job done.
  16. What Do You Use? Where To Buy?

    Cut the edge of the media to a v and use masking tape.
  17. Need Help Onyx 12.2 - how to create space between prints

    There's a setting in Placement options in RipQueue.
  18. Where do I get the BEST?

    I have to agree with most that if you want perfect quality you're best off getting your own printer. Any trade printer by their nature will maximise output by printing at the fastest acceptable rate.
  19. Question What Printer would you stake your business on?

    Don't those big latex printers do a full width pass even if you're only printing on a 36" roll and waste a couple of metres at each end of the print job? Along with the colour and length variations I'd have to say no thanks.
