Hello everyone! Today I had to cut some lettering out of 22 kt Sign Gold, (Quick). I bought a 5 yrd roll by 24". All the lettering had .30" radius inside and outside. Letters ranged from 3" to 8". Depth of cut was set an tangential blade cutting was performed on a Summa S2 cutter. After...

Turn off the media sensor?

All set.

Hello. I need to find a distributor who would have in stock a 5 yrd roll or (2) 2 yard rolls of Sign Gold LET 22kt 24" wide by 5 yrds, unpunched, non printable. Does anyone know of a vendor who stocks this product and doesn't drop ship? Thank you.

This is what I do. Printing and cutting on large engine turned gold (imitation) does not work. First I print all the marks. Take a square 1.5" x 1.5" cut from White vinyl and cut a crop mark sized square hole in the middle. I knock out the center cut square, place this over the crop mark...

All you need to do is calibrate the media. The reflective properties of the media varies when using a gloss laminate, matte laminate, reflective vinyls or 2 mil pvc vinyls. Just do a calibration and leave the lights on and you'll be fine. No need to put White around crop marks. That is so...

That's a lot of White out to use when I have probably 60 crop marks to White out. And you have to White out at least an inch square with the crop mark in the center. That's why I have cut out the crop mark out of a 1" x 1" White vinyl square and place the cut out hole over the crop mark. The...

You have to color it in because I use only the Black ink cartridge in making the crop marks and it does appear to be light. I could bump it up and put 20, 20, 20, 100 to get a richer Black crop mark. The Gerber Edge was a lot easier to use when printing and cutting on this type of vinyl. lol

Won't work because the sensor picks up the faceted circles of the large engine turned gold leaf and throws it off. Thanks for the reply.

Question. I am printing on fake large engine turned Gold vinyl. My printer, Mimaki JV150 prints the crop marks using SignLab 10. Now I do not have the camera option on the Summa. I have the Summa S2T160. So what I have to do is print crop marks onto White vinyl then cut into squares of maybe...

But it’s rare you’ll find profiles for ES3 inks. But you’ll find tons of profiles for True Solvent inks like the S2 inks.

Not if you want to lose everything you have!

Hello everyone. I am looking to purchase a yard or two of this 3M 2080 Black Rose. Vendors are out. Let me know if you have some for sale please. Thank you!

SignLab has a fill thats large and small engine turn. I’ve used it a few times and it look good. I’ve even taken a photo of Quick Gold and used that as a fill in SignLab and it also turned out nice.

Where did you purchase the metal roll holders at the bottom?
