  1. Sp300V encoder strip

    You can turn the encoder strip upside down. But regularly problems with the encoder will have effects on uni printing too.
  2. 911 printer emergency, dont want to ruin heads. Please msg or call immediately

    You can lock the head carriage by hand without powering on the machine. Just push the head carriage to the parking position until it clicks and you are not able to move it back leftwards. For rising the caps a little metal tube is delivered with the machine, with a flattened end. At the bottom...
  3. New to the idea of Latex...!

    Latex-Printers consumes more electricity than a standard Solvent printer, but if you check your costs of a KWh (if they are on a similar level than in Europe), you will see that one or two more KW's per hour will not be very expensive calculated on the printed square meters per hour (in our...
  4. flexi cloud to Summa DC3 trouble

    Sorry, I can't help. I do Flexi-Support for more than 15 years, and I have never seen a 7.6 wirh missing presets-Menu. You are really shure you check Job-Properties in the production manager, not in the Flexi RIP and Print window? Perhaps contact SAi?
  5. flexi cloud to Summa DC3 trouble

    Shure you have 7.6 installed? Flexi 7.0 should not have that.
  6. flexi cloud to Summa DC3 trouble

    In Flexi 7 it is only in the color management tab in the production manager.
  7. flexi cloud to Summa DC3 trouble

    I haven't used Flexi 7 for years, but I'm very very very shure that you will have a preset popup at the top of the color management tab (that's the one with the ink drops).
  8. flexi cloud to Summa DC3 trouble

    You could save a preset when opening job-properties in the production manager, in the color management-Tab, set up the printer how you have used it and save this settings as a preset on the top of that window. Export it out of production manager in Menu File, "Export presets" or similar. Open...
  9. HP L25500 Color issue

    Check your print heads. Perhaps Magenta don't work properly ( you could use the test pattern in the head cleaning menu).
  10. flexi cloud to Summa DC3 trouble

    You can convert profiles in the production manager, Menu "Settings", Menu item "ColorProfiler". When you choose that, you will see the button "convert legacy profiles". Before, you should export the old profiles as presets out of Flexi 7.6.
  11. Flexi Cloud trouble with Summa DC3 Plus printer/cutter

    Regularly, if you print spotcolors, no ICC-profile is needed. Then, be shure to set the dithering method to "Angled Screen". Then you could convert your profiles from Flexi 7.6 to FlexiCloud. You need to export the profiles as a preset and import it into FlexiPRO's ColorProfiler "Convert Legacy...
  12. Trying to install Gerber Omega 1.56 on a new computer. HELP, please!!!

    With such installations several problems can appear, for example incompatibility of the HASP-Driver (you can download a suitable driver from http://www.hasp.com ), what happens specially with XP Service Pack 3, or a problem with the Parallel-Port (specially LPT-Ports on Cards are often reason...
  13. Onyx 11 Cut Server issue

    The regular emulation for Summa is DM/PL, and Flexi uses that too when using a regular SummaSign- or SummaCut-Driver. The only reason for your Problem could be that you have set up the generic HP/ GL-Driver in Flexi. Just add a regular SummaSign-Driver to the Production Manager and try it, it...
  14. Onyx 11 Cut Server issue

    In Onyx 11, you could select a menu item "Manage Cutters" in the File Menu. If selecting the Summa Plotters and choose the Options, there is a PopUp-Menu where you could select different Barcode-Types. Choose Onyx instead of Summa (don't know the exact choices because I currently have no Onyx...
  15. If you prefer Summa over Graphtec or Roland. I'm curious why? Fill me in

    No. SummaCut R-Series (from 2007) or S-Class (from 2005).
  16. If you prefer Summa over Graphtec or Roland. I'm curious why? Fill me in

    I think it depends on the application you want to do if a summa is just "nice to have" or "urgently needed". Summa have - depending on the model - some features which are second to none on the market: Tangential knife: Currently Summa is the only producer of roll cutting plotters who offers a...
  17. Summa Plot Issue

    Perhaps the OPOS don't like that you name it OPUS ;) ? Sometimes the condition of the pinch rollers influence the quality of the contour cuts.
  18. summa dc4sx: keep or sell?

    Regularly, the DC4 is made for printing on vinyl only (some work well, other vinyls not). The consumables are more expensive than for inkjets, but the prints are much more resistant, and the white is more opaque than on e. g. Eco-Solvent-white. The machine not only print and cut, it could...
  19. OPOS Calibration Issue

    In this case the head is not so expensive.
  20. OPOS Calibration Issue

    You're welcome :) . Which model of Summa do you use? That's a standard problem on SummaSign tangential plotters, and I'm sorry to tell you that is regularly not repairable. Earlier, Summa have revised heads with this symptom in their factory, but they don't offer that anymore. For most of the...
