HPL25500 contoured jobs off

Got the printer setup yesterday and the banners printed great. Tried some contour jobs on the included HP 42" media and they are off. All of this is using Flexi 10 and a Summa S140T.

I printed the exact file on our JV3 and it cut perfectly.
Printed the file on the JV3 and used the HP cut file and it was perfect.
Tried a HP print using the JV3 cut file and it was off.

Didn't know if anyone had any suggestions. Thanks.

Ended up being one of two things.

Either the HP vinyl that was included with the printer or not enough of a leading edge.

With the HP vinyl I had been starting printing a little over an inch into the vinyl. When I loaded some 3M 35C-10 I went ahead and rolled out a little more and the problem went away.

So I am guessing its probably more of an issue with the amount of vinyl I had out before the printing started then the vinyl necessarily being the culprit.
