  1. Summa Woes

    I had inconsistent cuts as well on my S2 T140, sometimes it would cut great then it seemed like the cutting would shift a few millimeters on the X axis. I haven't had the freezing issues though so my issue may be unrelated. I too adjusted all my artwork to make the bleeds larger. I use Flexi but...
  2. Summa OPOS marks in Adobe Illustrator 2022 for Mac?

    I use 2022 Illustrator on a new M1 Pro. There is a work around. Make sure the summa plug-in is in the plug in folder. If you run illustrator normally you will get an error letting you know the plug in doesn't work for the M1 chips. Open Creative Cloud app, click "All Apps" on the left. To the...
  3. HP Summa cutter media advances during cut

    You want autoload on. It feeds a bunch of material through so that it has slack in the roll. This way when its speeding through the cutting its not jerking the roll causing tracking issues.
  4. Reds and Yellows printing Off - HP Latex 115

    I had a similar issue with my HP Latex 115. I print somewhat regularly just not high volume. The Light Cyan was expired by a few months it may have been a year, I don't remember, I noticed my grey were more greenish and it was hard to get grey. A lot of the colors were slightly off. I first...
  5. HP L115 & Flexi Print

    I was running the HP 115 with the cutter and as far as I know you're just limited to an HP printer and HP Cutter. I just purchased a Summa S2 T140 to replace the HP cutter and ended up having to upgrade Flexi to use the cutter, a $995 upgrade.
  6. Decal Application Instructions for Customers

    It's amazing how something as simple as a sticker/decal can be so complex for someone! I created detailed instructions on my website then create a 2D barcode to print next to the design. People can simply scan it with their phones and it'll pop up the instructions on my site.
  7. WTB Roland Printer

    I have an SP-300V that I haven't ran but kept plugged in and turned on for about a year. I'd bet it'll need new heads though. It was running fine when I quit using it. I upgraded to a HP Latex and it just sits. If you interested let me know. I'd let it go for $1000. I'm in central Indiana...
  8. Resin top coat

    I've used 3M edge sealer when I worked as an aircraft mechanic to help keep edges sealed on graphics on the aircraft. The elements can't get much more brutal than that. https://www.amazon.com/3M-Edge-Sealer-3950-Graphics/dp/B005LDH83S
  9. Dirty yellow (SP-540V)

    I had that happen to me on a SP-300v. I let the yellow run to low, didn't heed the warnings! So yellow starting printing magenta as well. I turned off the printer with the heads parked and removed the cover that allows access to the pump and lines. Disconnect the magenta/yellow line from the "Y"...
  10. Roland Versacamm SP300 Question

    Might be time to change your captops. If you use a syringe and drop a few drops of cleaning fluid into the cap it should flow down. If it just stays pooled at the top it’s time to change it. Also, have you run the yellow ink empty and not change the cartridge? I’ve done that and had that...
  11. Hp315 or Roland vp540

    I can speak to both. My first machine was the Roland SP300V that I bought used, invested some money into it to get it working. For a machine that is now about a decade old its prints awesome! As long as you do the routine maintenance which really can take all of 10 minutes a week the machine...
  12. HP 570 new user problems

    I just bought the HP 115 print/cut, moving up from an older Roland and I have the same issue. I've been using a calendared 3M and the backing paper seems to "stick" in the drying area. It's been frustrating. I'm going to purchase some HP calendared and see if I have the same issues.
