Hi everyone,
I’m getting ready to step into the sticker business and need some advice from those with experience. I’m trying to decide between the Summa S One D120 and the Summa S Class 120T for highly detailed, small contour cutting. Accuracy is my top priority since I’ll be focusing on...
I picked up a t140 a few months back for $5500 and have been so amazed by the quality of cuts it has. I am so glad I did my research before buying one because I was looking at graphtecs and when I came across summa I was blown away by the speed differences.
Yesterday I bought a used ST160 with...
Hi Everyone.
I emailed this question to ND Graphics tech and it's been over 1.5 hrs with no email back. I was told it could be up to 3 hours.
I have printed media in the cutter and 3 out of 3 jobs it cut on Flex mode.
I designed in Illustrator, then sent to WinPlot. Color is set to Black...
My workflow has me using Flexi regrettably and I am trying to figure out how to send perfcuts with longer lengths. It seems that it is taking forever to get through an inch of material. We have a small kiss cut and a perf cut - the perf cut is where its going wrong. Any ideas???
How does Summa (GoSumma plugin for adobe) software go along with Affinity?
I am looking in to this and considering switching from Adobe to Affinity for my signs, print and cloth profiling company.

So I am looking into replacing one of my current plotters with a new model. Right now I am using a Graphtec FC8600-130. It's aging and I'm beginning to have more failed cuts (more specifically x-axis errors saying the media is too heavy) and we're quickly approaching the busiest season of the...
We are having an issue with 48" vinyl on our Summa. When it feeds the media it moves too fast and kinks it. We can control cutting speed, but don't know how to reduce feed speed. This issue is increased because the plotter sometimes jumps around from one element to another on the sheet, rather...
I don't have an installer, trainer, or tech so I am learning this new equipment all on my own. Yay!
My shop set up is: Adobe for design, Mimaki UCJV300-160 for printing, and a new Summa S3 TC160 for cutting.
I've used the Mimakis for about 4 years now and have done most of my cutting with...
I can't get WinPlot to show as a toolbar in Corel 2024. It was OK in Corel 2019. Tried exporting PDF and AI but had missing lines with both. I've heard GoSign might work, but have been told my Summa S2-160 is too old to accept the firmware update needed. Suggestions?
Hi, we run 3 Summa 160TC plotters, gen 1, s2 and s3 for cutting vinyls we use Gerber Omega Compser 4.0 (GSP inc) and that have worked for the past 16 years or so but when we got the s3 160tc it refuses to cut anything other then two lines and then nothing.
I got it connected and working with...
I have a HP latex Cutter, Or Summa One rebranded and this error message keeps coming up
"Power off! Pinch rollers not found" when I try to load media. This happened directly after flexi did a firmware update on my cutter.
Anyone have any trouble shooting tips as my cutter currently is not...
Hello,
I am trying an ONYX Thrive Trial, *which completely bricked my access to Onyx Gamaprint btw* and I am trying to set up my Barcode workflow to Utilize XY2.
Backstory, I am going through options on trying to fix an accuracy problem, and my next path is trying to utilize the XY2 workflow...
Does anyone have a problem with the cutter being 1mm off center vertically near the end of a cut job? For the first 3 rows it cuts perfectly center, but at the last 3-5 rows or so its always. Off.
I have ran almost 20 Opos Calibrations in one go, but still have this issue and the end of the...
I am replacing a board one my Summa S One (rebranded HP Latex 64 Plus) and have one connection question.
Do I connect the lower left hand wording harness (393-9029A) to the F124-125 or F126-127 terminal?
Hello Folks,
I've recently been looking into purchasing a flatbed cutter for my sign / print shop. I'm looking for something that can manage at least 4'x8' sheets of material (aluminum composite, posters, banners, etc.), but the prices machines like the SUMMA and ZUND are way out of budget. I'm...
