  1. Need Help Summa mark Size, reading difficult media

    How do I do manual XY? I never got any training on this sorry for the lack of knowledge.
  2. Need Help Summa mark Size, reading difficult media

    I've been banging my head about this the past couple days. I've got a red glitter vinyl I'm printing on (no white), which is fine it's what the customer has liked. However the problem is when I got to cut this stuff...it cannot read the OPOS marks, I've tried media calibration and it didn't say...
  3. Uneven rollers RS1400C

    After looking at the pressure springs more and the tech said something that made me think. Maybe it's the left side pressure spring that's collapsed and causing this roller to be higher on the left than the right. I don't have any experience with service on these, so it's just a guess until...
  4. Uneven rollers RS1400C

    Yeah I've messed with those bu it's nowhere near enough to compensate for the game that's there.
  5. Uneven rollers RS1400C

    I've been getting some curling on one side of my prints and I've seen the roller adjustment threads, but I was just loading new material and had the rollers down and there is a visible gap on the left side of the machine and not the right. Probably why I can't get even pressure across my sheets...
  6. Barcode Send Failed

    Apparently when I had this installed they didn't tell me a couple of things, such as I didn't need to use the SummaCutter Control to run barcodes, and I never really looked into it as I never had any issues until a few days ago. I did a update for the Onyx Cut Server, and had gone through and...
  7. Barcode Send Failed

    Thrive Version 19 Only thing I can think of is that it could be a Windows update that caused it. I wouldn't know unless I rolled the update back, which I don't really want to do.
  8. Barcode Send Failed

    Yesterday I was cutting sheets in OPOS Sheet mode and one sheet came out with the two last pieces not even cut, didn't attempt to cut them, next sheet it didn't attempt to cut 7 of the last pieces on the sheet. All the cuts were in the cut file. Today I came in and this is the same job I'm...
  9. Onyx Thrive 19 - Crash on Import Profile

    So i got some paper media for my printer and I wanted to get a profile that was not vinyl and Epson has one and I load it up in the Epson dashboard and in Onyx it's downloaded into the manager, When I go to update the size of the roll it asks if I want to Install the profile, if I click ok it...
  10. Question How do you estimate/quote job?

    I think you get 30 invoices a month for the trial and then they ask you to sign up. $39 a month.
  11. Question How do you estimate/quote job?

    I'll have to try it again because I haven't been able to get the exports for QB to work at all.
  12. Question How do you estimate/quote job?

    This has probably been beat to death but I'm wondering how ya'll estimate/quote your jobs? I've been using Createabid.com which has been great cause it's got a lot of stuff setup but now that I'm on Quickbooks I feel it's rather redundant to use Createabid and then put that same info into QB...
  13. Staying open and profitable

    Awesome! Thanks guys! This still all new to me and I've never advertised, it's all been word of mouth for me since that is how I started. I've got a good rep among a lot of people and that's most important is taking care of my customers. I value customer service as the most important piece of...
  14. Staying open and profitable

    Hey guys, Since I'm slow right now I've got a bit more time to think about things going on with my business. Well to say the least the past year and a half has been great and really busy, even during this COVID time, I've stayed busy. I'm finding things are slowing down, or I'm losing business...
  15. Cast or Calendared?

    What brand of overlaminate are you using?
  16. Cast or Calendared?

    I often do stickers with RTapes vinylEFX metallic material. It's a royal pain in the a** but a lot of people love the shiny stuff. However I find it does curl up a bit and I know it has limitations for solvent printing, like leaving 6mm clear of any cuts to prevent curling. Now even with doing...
  17. Question Brightline Shield UV vs non-UV

    Agreed. I use the UV and the cost difference is very minimal in the end and the UV protection is worth it.
  18. D140 - Cutting Accuracy

    I've been cutting these all morning and 4 out of 5 sheets are consistently off. I've calibrated OPOS many times and it's still the same. Is this a media length calibration issue or something else? These sheets are only 4.5' x 3' so it's not the length of the sheet. Could be sheet be slipping in...
  19. SUMMA D140R - I need serious help.

    Thanks for more info. I've gotten to the point where I realize the flex cut isn't any good with cutting custom cuts. I've gotten the 2-pass method to work quite well, but as you said, the blade depth has to be set just right and the pressure. I think I do need a new strip as I get a bit of...
  20. Expanding skills and product offerings

    I've been doing stickers/labels/banners for the last couple of years and it's been good and the clients I serve now have kept me very busy during the crazy time which I'm very thankful for. However I want to start offering more products. I'd like to get into doing wall/window graphic...
