  4. SUMMA D140FX

    There was no boosting innovation in vinyl cutting during the last decades. The innovations between the generations are mostly about small details, internal software or electronics (network or wireless ports, quicker processing and so on). But there are surely different ways of how to handle...

    You should have bought the D140, not the D140FX. Simple.

    What happens if you load the file directly into Production Manager?
  7. Y Motor/servo motors and maintinance

    Motors wear out. The noise from the motor is increasing very slowly, so that people who works on their machine every day mostly don´t notice it. It starts with noise, and ends with motor errors (seldom with a damaged servo board). I´m a technician, If I do service on a customers printer or...
  8. Issues with Setting Up the Summa DC4xs Printer on Colored Vinyl

    You should talk to a dealer, depends on your priorities. White is a little bit difficult with solvent printers, I would prefer UV. Mimaki has a 800mm printing width Print & Cut-Machine UCJV300-75 for little stickers (107 and 160 available too), they work fine. It looks like that you are from...
  9. Issues with Setting Up the Summa DC4xs Printer on Colored Vinyl

    Not shure. I think it is a setting about "Masking". You have the possibility to set the cassette id for every mask to white. About the red signs: set black as a spot color in the file.
  10. Question Is Mimaki UJV 100-160plus worth it comparing it to UCJV330?

  11. Issues with Setting Up the Summa DC4xs Printer on Colored Vinyl

    You´re welcome. About white: You can set Color Control to print more than one white layer. As far as I remember, you can set this in the "Advanced"-Tab of Color Control. If you post a screendump of this tab, I can show it to you.
  12. Question Is Mimaki UJV 100-160plus worth it comparing it to UCJV330?

    Do you need white ink? The UCJV330 is not just an UJV100 with cutter, it has a higher production speed too. And while für an UJV100 you need to decide bevore filling if you want to print white under color or white over color, on an UCJV you can do both driven by the print mode.
  13. Issues with Setting Up the Summa DC4xs Printer on Colored Vinyl

    You should set the color space not to monochrome, and set White as a spot color (in the file too). Set OptiTrac to WHITE_BACKGROUND,
  14. Issues with Setting Up the Summa DC4xs Printer on Colored Vinyl

    There is a setting for the OptiTrac-Markers for printing them in a color like black with a white surrounding. As far as I remember, the DC4 has another kind of sensors than the DC5. Don´t remember where to set it, but perhaps you will find it in the manuals. Do you print with Color Control? You...
  15. Question Roland VG 640 and SG 540 random blue stripes in print.

    Regularly, when a printer prints a pass over a distance with full set of nozzles (as it looks like here), I would guess an electronic problem (often flat cables not connected firmly or damaged), but most of this problems are permanent, not intermittend. Because in your cases two printers are...

  17. Need Help Mimaki Driver not installed?

  18. **Subject:** Need Help with HP Scitex FB550 – Magenta Print Head Not Filling

    There is one Vacuum pump for all ink channels. If you have a problem with one color, it don´t seem to be a vacuum problem. It´s a longer time ago that I serviced this printers, but the vacuum can be adjusted by a little adjustment screw which can be found on the back housing near the power...
  19. Illustrator//PS to ONYX RIP - SPOT WHITE

    Sometimes a different than transparent (eg white) background does strange effects for several reasons, for example printing a few dots of a different color into white areas. For example when printing in absolut colorimetric rendering intent, what means it tries to simulate a special paper white...
