  2. GRAYS COMING OUT PURPLISH - HP LATEX & FLEXI

    Now that I recall I did print a few yards of brown before I calibrated. My imitation gold color and reds were all coming out lighter than my chart of just 2 months earlier as image shows. After the shake them up maneuver my charts matched the earlier chart and my grays were quite neutral. My...
  3. GRAYS COMING OUT PURPLISH - HP LATEX & FLEXI

    I was having the same issue. My dealer (I should give a plug) Northlight Color suggested an incredible simple fix , but it worked! Follow insructions for changing color cartridges and remove the cartridges and then gently shake them. Then calibrate.... I would have never believed this would fix...
  4. Who remembers the Gerber 4b?

    I have a GK1, which stands for Gerber Kill 1. This company certainly did not kill Gerber but is one of the first software driven systems. 30 fonts yippe! A pre-runner for what ended up Summa through Houston Instruments.

    Thanks, Good to know if I ever buy another cutter.
  6. HP Printer, Summa T160 Cutter and Flexi OPUS Issue

    I use a HP L310 and a Summa Sign 1400 ( the older cutter). First of all the printer does not print such great clean edges! My older cutter has some sensitivity settings in it that make the cutter less fussy finding the marks. Mine is called OPOS SETTINGS in the internal tests under menu. Newer...
  7. Can I use a plotter other than Gerber to cut my Edge prints?

    If one were to print (4) .119 inch squares spaced from the 4 corners of your print. This in my case is accomplished in Flexi Sign with step and repeat . Then create a contour cut file including the 4 corner squares. In my case I use a Summa Cutter with the opos eye system. Then I use a cutting...
  8. Winplot not even attempting to read reg marks.

    How wide are your marks? I have a summa sign T140 which should handle opos marks at least 53" or 1346mm across the width of the cutter. It seems like marks over 1300 mm do not read, yet if I use Summa Cutter Control and manually set the marks, then use special load setting on the cutter, then...
  9. Need Help Odd Lines in Print

    Possibly a dirty encoder strip?
  10. HP L310 - Color woes with YELLOW!

    In the color setting box under rendering intent I have set vector, text and gradient to no color correction for CMYK values. This I believe this makes the printer print the percentage values you choose. If you choose 100% that is what you should get. I to have a 310 and I am very pleased with my...
  11. Any experiences using GPF gloss Laminate?

    I decided to try Graphic Finishing Partners calendared laminate. The finish is very nice but I noticed that it's initial tack is not very high. Has anyone been using this product for some time ?
  12. Uh, wtf is going on here?

    I think Big Easy refereed to this, what happens if you digitize an upper case A and then use the design character command, then select arial , and select A for the character and then replace the uppercase A?
  13. Printing film positives on Latex, what works?

    It was the 3M 8518 with synthetic liner, The printer is a HP 310 latex, heat set at 225, I suspect the I could go down to 200 and it would cure fine.
  14. Printing film positives on Latex, what works?

    I have printed on 3M laminate with the plastic liner. It behaved well for me.
  15. FLEXI 11 stability

    I have had some problems as well and I have found that the SSD on my system is the culprit in some of my issues. I would like to test the program on my E: Drive ( the conventional 1 TB drive) although Flexi 11 would not be located where all the other programs . Tech support has stated there may...

    They apparently have confidence in their K-9 squad.
  17. Stick With Roland or Go HP Waterbase?

    I am a one man shop as well. I went from a Mutoh 1304 to the Latex 310. In my case I robbed the take up reel from the 1304 and put it on the 310 so the 310 made sense for me . If you do not have a take up handy I would go with the 330 at least.. Just being able to laminate right away is worth...
  18. Help Needed with this effect

    TimToad, There is a control at the tip that is called joins. There are 3 selections. Try the far right one. After looking at the Illy rendering.it may be the same as that. For the convex points to line up perfectly in the center the strokes probably need to be the same width.
  19. Help Needed with this effect

    I like the plug-in called Shinycore by path-styler. This plug in works from vectors so the problem you displayed is fixed
  20. 1204 Printhead

    Thanks for correcting me, I was presumptuous. For myself, by the time I would buy a head , dampers, and let's not forget the capping station and pump. It made more sense for me to give my accountant something to deduct. I figured the repairs amounted to 2 years of payments on a new printer and...
