I know it's going old school, but then, a SummaSign Pro of a different color should be alive and well longer than a decade. So if anyone has or knows of one, it would be a appreciated if you could let me know at jim@koios.us. Thanks! Jim

Some reflectives, maybe. But that sounds like a bit of over-stating, which isn't needed with Summa's cutter marketing (scold them!!! :), since they're the BEST, accuracy wise. And every sensor type system is problematic with reflectives, save that of the CCD camera sensors, like iCut...

Yes. See what your settings are for the size of your marks (default is 3mm square, I seem to recall) and print a bunch of them, spaced about 3 inches apart, on white vinyl. Then manually cut out the pieces, leaving some room for the sensor to scan around as it does. If it picks up anything...

Worn or clogged blade-holder could be the culprit, causing waves due to hampered blade rotation. Check to see if bits of adhesive or vinyl are mucking things up, and if so, clean and lubricate the blade-holder and you should be golden.

Yeah; that. If you have a laptop and a design program you bought or pirated (Corel/Adobe) and lost your job or cannot find one, a single Unemployment Check can get you into the "business" for about $3 to $5 hundred bux. An espresso machine, even at the low end, is north of $2 grand, and a...

Another option, especially since you seem to be focusing mostly on indoor, would be liquid lamination, to start out. Then when your business supports it, spend heavy on the laminator, since the better ones are pure heaven, while cheaper ones can be a real pain to work with. Also, the...
