    Print a Gray20 swatch(20% each of CMYK) and see what you get. Does it have a color cast? Too much or too little saturation? If you can't get a decent Gray20 it's a profile issue.

    Corded: Whatever Harbor Freight has on sale. Cordless: Ridgid. Butane/battery. Will run wide open for 40 minutes before you need more butane. Haven't had to charge the 5Ah battery yet. Been very happy with rig. Only thing I'm going to do is put on a 2Ah battery to make it lighter.

  9. Getting bad cuts when attempting to cut through backing

    This subject was broached not long ago on the forum. IIRC someone was just kiss cutting twice with their Summa. Really looked to have the process dialed in. I tried it on a wall pattern for mounting letters. Worked pretty good for a first time.
