  1. Summa DC4 Question

    We have a DC4sx and it has a place in our workflow. Depending on your expectations you could be disappointed but if you use it for its strengths then I think its a good printer. There is a Summa specific forum on the web if you search that has a lot of great info on the printer.
  2. AMD vs Intel

    I had been 100% AMD for years, all the way back to a K6-2. I personally have been in situations where an AMD system actually failed to function properly. One was with our sister company that installs camera recording systems, an AMD based system just would not give us as smooth recording as was...
  3. any Summa d-140 with opus users in here?

    I have had problems in the past, but doing a calibration has always fixed the problem. The machine should allow for 6 or 8 profiles to be setup and I have a couple specific to that trouble media. Personally, Summa plotters are some of the most solid units I have used. Our first one was used and...
  4. Upgrades for your DC4

    A couple of quirks about our DC4sx that I would think would easily be fixed in a firmware upgrade. Thought I would share them and see if anyone has others. And since we have an active Summa rep here maybe then can get passed on better then just having us call an complain. I don't know if I am...
  5. Hacking the DC4

    I understand reasoning behind the hood and all, but without messing with PrinterControl it was a pain to check on a job as it was printing. Adding some lights that you can turn on as needed would be a big plus. Before I fixed the hood sensor I would be peeking in with a flashlight.
  6. F Series

    Has anyone heard anything about the flatbeds?? Availability? Price? We have been looking at a flatbed half heartedly ever since we got our JV3. It'ld be a nice addition and look great next to our S140T and DC4sx. Maybe Summa should offer a loyalty discount when they starting selling it.
  7. Value of a used Summa

    We had a T1010 for ten years, its started acting up and we upgraded to a S140T. I didn't even look at the "competition" when we replaced it, I like what I like. Still have the T1010 sitting in a corner.
  8. Hacking the DC4

    How are you wanting to keep the hood open? Trying to understand the reasoning for it. Personally, I have been wanting to slap some of our out of service leds inside our DC4sx so that its easier to monitor the print while its running. I've bypassed the door sensor so that I can open it whenever...
  9. Polling problems

    We haven't been able to poll our S140T since we upgraded to Flexi 10, the problem occurred on a XP machine as well as one running Win7 64. SAi only sees the new computer since the old one crapped so they are blaming Summa drivers that don't support Win7 64. I can cut and use OPOS without any...
  10. Flexi 10 Coming Soon

    Only been running 10 a couple of days, and so far if it wasn't for the 50% off then I wouldn't of been happy at all with the upgrade. May find more changes as I use it, but it feels like it should of been a .x step rather then a new version number. My complaints so far mainly are due to the...
  11. Font ID, thanks.

    Perfect, thanks.
  12. Font ID, thanks.

    Any ideas? Thanks.
  13. Waterproof books

    Thanks, I'll check them out.
  14. Waterproof books

    Figuring a price on printing it in house, just figured that outsourcing would save me some headaches.
  15. Looking to buy Printer/Cutter..Suggestions

    I recommend a thermal as well, the Edge and DC4sx are the two options. With those two machines it a question of whether or not you want a lot of options on spot colors(Edge), or being able to produce prints 30" wide(DC4sx) and contour cut in one machine. We have a Summa that is being delivered...
  16. Waterproof books

    Have a customer that is wanting a waterproof, 20 page booklet done with 250 copies. I didn't know if anyone knew of a source for something like this. Thanks.
  17. What is the best Cutter/Plotter for a beginner?

    We are Summa users here, workhorse machines. When we replaced our original unit I just bought their newest version in the size we wanted without checking the competition. That is how satisfied I am with them. Just a thought, if you buy a nicer unit up front, then it should last you longer...
  18. Just lost my best friend

    Our sympathies as well. We have seven dogs and a macaw and know full well how they can be an important part of your life.
  19. AVATAR.... Have you seen it?

    Awesome movie, and I am tempted to go and see it at the theaters again. Avatar is probably going to be the reason I finally get a blu-ray player. Just hope that they get the 3D spec for the players hammered out soon.
  20. It's official...NO Christmas cards this year.

    We have received a few but not as many as past years. And I don't think that we send out cards, but we do send out a thank you gift so to speak, this year we sent kringles.
