I've been cutting through with very little problems in the past few weeks. I just do double contour cuts on each piece and it's been great and they come out pretty easily. However I was just cutting a job and they were just rectangles but one thing that was happening is it will cut the Left...
Shouldn't have to align anything really, you just need to do the calibration function in the service menu after installing it.
It's pretty easy to do, just make sure you don't get any kinks or scrapes in the strip when installing it. Just take your time and do rush it. I've replaced mine a few...
I've never used a fill either. Always have used strokes and have had no problems. Now If you expand that stroke, making it not a real stroke anymore you will get a double cut line.\\\
With all that being said. I've just come to the process of making my cut layer in illustrator, I duplicate it...
What Phil said is something I've found myself doing. I setup double contour cuts, just duplicating the same path but naming then slightly different like CutContour for one and ContourCut for the other and making sure my RIP is able to detect the cut names. I had to extend my blade slightly and...
I've only used Grimco but I only buy a few different items and a lot I get next day just because I'm close to one of their warehouses. I haven't tried Glantz yet since they gave me a log in but I do want to try another supplier to get an idea of overall price, shipping and lead times on materials.
This is what's killing me on this. It's very frustrating when I'm told what I can do on my Roland I can do on my summa but it's really having a difficult time as you can tell. One was from the start of the sheet and the other was from the end of the sheet. (54" x 30"). Sorry to be upset about...
Awesome! Thanks for the help I will certainly try these suggestions out!
Yeah I see that. I just didn't want to mess with it and end up not being able to read it. I'll definitely try that as well. Saving room is always a good thing!
See where I can get help with this first.
I haven't printed roll to roll yet and I've got a decent size job I can do this with. However I'm really not even sure how to set this up in onyx. Do I have to layout my sheet in layout tool or illustrator and then just set that file with however many...
Are your lines right on the edge of your document and have the bleed set to 0? I found it doesn't like the cut lines on the edge of the document if there bleed is set to zero. I had the same thing happen to myself. I'd always lose one edge on the cut like that.
I can't say that anything I've printed has used more. Generally most of my stuff is a mix but I can't point my finger to anything in particular that would be using some more than others. I'm just using the canned Epson G7 color mgmt profiles and I use a basic Avery media profile for pretty much...
I've had my Epson S40600 for about 3 months now and it's great! love the thing. It's fast and the quality is great. One thing I have noticed is the ink use is a little odd, not sure if it's this way for others. I've replaced 3 of the 4 cartridges since installing it. (Black, Magenta and Yellow)...
Yeah I've been struggling with that. I never really got any solid training on anything, Epson, Onyx or the summa. Covid hit and reduced my training to a phone install. I hate asking so many questions but I feel like I'm still in the learning curve on a lot of this stuff 3 months after the...
What I'm seeing is it just seems to discard the top layer cut, whichever one is on the top most layer whether it's CutContour or FlexCut. When it gets into cut server it will have only the cut layer directly above the artwork layer. All this absolutely works if the paths aren't duplicated on top...
Hmm well...I've tried lots of things and nothing seems to work. In Illustrator I've got my art on the base layer, then the next layer will have the FlexCut with the assigned spot color, then using the same cut path, but with the CutContour spot color on the top layer. I save my PDF import to...
I've been struggling with cutting techniques and one thing I'm having trouble with is Onyx cut server. Now I want to do a Contour Cut and then a Flex Cut in one pass. (Not sure this is possible) In any case if I layer my file with Flex Cut on bottom and Contour Cut on top when I print it to the...
Guess it must just be Onyx that is the issue with being able to do that in one pass. I still have to figure out what to do with my still very new D140.
